[s-cars] Parts price discrepancies

[brian hoeft]

I made the choice a few years ago on principle to support a local VAG parts
shop that has a quality staff and fair prices (win some lose some kinda
thing).. RPM foreign auto in Stanhope NJ, but if your not within reason from
there, I would still be supporting SJM almost exclusively.
