2 /5 Mike: I went in for a smog check and was charged $85, even though other places had quoted me $65. Since I was already there, I decided to go through with it. When I asked about price matching, they said no and claimed they needed special equipment to smog my 2013 M5. They also mentioned that because my car is registered in a different county, the cost was higher, as they are the only STAR-certified location in SLO. However, my car doesn’t even require a STAR certification. It felt like they were overcharging me.
