It is a dealer item. Check out Sunset Porsche in Portland, OR. Jeff Clark is the parts manager and runs a cost plus retail program that even with shipping knocks the local dealers pricing. Jeff also runs "specials" from time to time, he recently was offering the original OBD II diagnostics manual for the Boxster for around $80; it sold for over $1500 when it first came out.

Guys, it's a low volume production product. Hell, even Castrol has a low temp GL-4 gear oil that's popular with the Nissan types, and it is a high production volume full synthetic that sells for the same price. Sometimes you have to choices to make; after all, you do not change it out frequently, and your gearbox ain't cheap either............
