Don't just not go back. Go back and get some of your money back. You got screwed unless they can show that they did something else to your car. Maybe it will keep them from jacking someone else.

Actually, I had some tires from Tire Rack that I had them put on the week before. Good price. I really did not even think about the alignment cost since they were ok on the tire mount and balance. Probably should have asked, but I had a lot going on and I really did not have any red flags from before, so I never gave it much thought. Guess thats what happens when you're not paying attention.

But at a "toe and go" specialist like a Firestone store, $200 is way out of line. I would say at most, a tire store alignment would be $99.95 for a Corvette.
Both my C4s and 2000 C5 run in this range...

That's what God invented 2x10 for. A couple of them, about 4 ft long, placed in front of the alignment rack's ramps, will get the nose of the car up enough to transition to the rack.
