I don’t wanna **** them off. I don’t want to insult them. Some of them make you feel like you got the scarlet letter if you don’t get work done from them.

Hey thanks but I work on my own cars?

I hate how the dealership service team acts like they are doing you a favor... Porsche could take a lesson from Lexus, but they don't have to because, it's a Porsche.
