Because they want you to buy plugs from them at a very inflated price....

do those expensive spark plugs actually do anything special. if they do is it worth it to spend the extra money?

The ones from the dealship, no. The iridium plugs, yes. They have a much longer life. Get copper ones if u wont be driving it much. The copper ones have better heat dissipation. But they only last for 3k miles or so.

Yeah, the stealership just once you dough. go to Supra sport and get the high temp or low temp iridiums there, i posted about which are which and why on another post, just search it. Go iridium, well worth it.
Edit: P.S. Dealerships don't recommend you do anything not stock to your car. |
