60K service cost?

I'm looking at an '01 Boxster S which is within a few thousand miles of needing the scheduled 60K service. Is there anyone out there who's had it done and can give me a ballpark cost for it? In this case, the car would most likely be taken to a dealership for the service, but I'd be interested to hear of prices charged at independent shops as well. TIA

Go for it! I just had my 60K at the dealer in Burlington, VT. They charged me $800 bucks. Not too bad. Oil change, plugs, filter, air filter, cabin filter, polyrib belt, brake fluid change (based on years I believe), a run on the computer to check for codes. Plus, since I had just bought the car, they did an inspection similar to a pre-dealer purchase. I'm sure I could have done it myself for much cheaper, but since I just purchased the car, I wanted to have a knowledgable service technician give it a good once over.

I checked with a local place that specializes in VW, Audi, and has had some Porsche experience. He quoted me $625. I thought for the little difference, it made sense to visit the dealer and start to build a relationship.

I have an '02 with the 2.7 engine. Tiptronic. Hope this helps.
