The very same thing happened to me! They saw me show up in a Lexus (ten years old at the time, but still, a luxury car) and quoted me $1,600 for a whole new exhaust system. Midas welded the hole shut for $100.
Actually, that very same shop did that another time. Wanted $700 to replace a wheel bearing. Got it done for $250 at my now regular guy.
Crikey.
P.S. Been going to my regular guy for several years now. I pick up coffee and donuts for them from Timmies every single time, and it's always appreciated. I treat them right, and they treat me right.
P.P.S. Should add that they treat everyone right, because all customers should be treated equally. It's just that some customers are "more equal" than others.
