What is the most that you have paid for an oil change? the most I have spent was $85, hell I thought this was pricey until I heard that one of my friends paid $110!!!!

I have only had one oil change since I bought this car in April 2007 and that cost me $82 at the dealer. I'm going this Friday to get the oil changed again at the same dealer. I can't wait to see how much it has gone up!!! HAHAHA

I paid 115 at the dealership....I said I wanted top of the line since I didn't expect to be changing it but once a year and the guy suggested redline synthetic but that it would be much pricer than a normal change. I thought oh well just this once....

Hopefully, by next season I'll have the lift and we'll be doing it ourselves, it won't be going back to the dealership for sure.

Paid $80 at the dealership. Paid about the same at one of those fast lube places.

$110 seems a little high, I do all my own oil changes so my cost is much less.

7 quarts of Royal Purple 10-40 + 1 K&N oil filter = $76

I get it done locally for 55 bucks (Vette mechanic). The last time I did it myself and it was about 40 bucks for the materials. It's not hard at all if you can get the car off of the ground. :thumbsup:

Do all work myself. That's part of the fun of having a Vette.
