That's insane.  Do they expect people to pay that much money for it ?
I am afraid that I am going to fall in the category with my 200Q.  Is
there a chance that you can do your own maintenance on the V8 ?  How
complicated is that engine ?

I'll check with the dealer around here about the V8 60K maintenance.
