Doesn't include hazmat fee, tax, and "shop supply costs" which could be whatever they feel like charging... probably not a whole lot, but just a heads up! I hate fine print.

$99 doesn't seem to bad. It seems pretty cheap for a full detail. Though I am not sure I would trust the dealership. Unless it's a 3rd party that is doing the detailing.

I honestly would pay someone $300 for a professional job...

Cause you would spend $99 for this one, be dissatisfied, then pay a pro $300.

I'd rather pay 300 and take the 99 to the strip club....in one dollar bills

I'd also say nay. I'd do it myself, or go to a professional detailing shop.

Going to the dealership you would likely just get whatever staff happens to be working that day. And the kids working there will be like "Aww crap.. I have to clean cars today.. " Then they will do a half a*s job, and probably put scratches in your car, while they wipe it down with a cloth that has been dropped on the dirty floor.

NAY!! They will swirl, buffer trail and mar your paint up.

If you dont care about that, then go ahead

Swirls, Buffer trails and marring in this picture, I strongly advise everyone never to get a detail from a dealer.

It's fun cleaning my own car. I do it almost every week, so it doesn't ever really get that dirty. NOWW.....for my Jeep Wrangler, I'd pay $99 for someone to clean that thing.

I think the reg. price is $129. I'll pass. Since my interior is near mint.

I haven't looked around much, but I swear the services listed in the first post would be at least 250$-300$ . I probably paid more then $100.00 for the bottles of polish/cleaner/etc I use..

I don't like other people washing or driving my car. DIY for 100% pure gratification.
