I think the stealer is trying to fleece you.

I very much doubt you need rotors at 30k miles.

car and driver reported on their long term 996 that they did i think 80k miles on that the discs were virtually indestructible (not pccbs)

as dell says, check the thickness left and inspect for cracks, but otherwise i would just replace the pads

I've had two different dealers tell me I need new rotors on both my 2001 and 2004... seems par for the course.

The parts are about $320, I would pay them $450 or $500 parts included but $1300 for just front brakes and rotors - that's just robbery.

$1,000 for dealer to do fronts. LVDELL, that is the price for a 2003 C4S. A c2/4 was even less cost. Thanks everyone. I'll check rennlist too.
