I paid $375 for OEM wires, cap, and rotor for my 300E a couple years ago, so you didn't get raped too badly on the parts, but the labor seems excessive.

I'd certainly never go back!

I've heard of a local shop that charges 2.5x LIST for parts, the owner "wasn't making enough money" at the regular list. For reasons I don't what to understand, people keep him busy......
