Why would the oil change be $200? Gold plated oil filter?

They are $200 for oil change.. maybe more. I was hitting the roof when my
wife told me she had it done since I do my own oil changes but because her
Boxter is more special than my Blown C5 she has to do the dealer thing..
Amazing.. It may have been $300..

Now for the fun part, my Grasshopper lawnmower drive oil is $20 a quart. Do
you think I can sub the Porsche or Ferrari oil, or bite the bullet and use
the OEM stuff?
