Default Does your dealer charge a Corvette tax?

My local Chev dealer is $15 more an hour to work on Vettes rather than other vehicles. Is that common?

I dropped my Z off to get the ecu reflashed and while I was out of country I found out they couldn't flash and had to replace it, along with my feeble battery. I told my wife to have them go ahead and when I got back the tab was $1100.00. Ouch. Lesson learned. At least now I have a $210.00 Vette battery.

Yes, if you compare oil change prices factoring in the difference in the price of the oil vs. conventional, they actually gouge you!
