NH RX8 tune up

I havent driven my rx8 in about a year and a half. I brought it in for a tune up and new spark plugs and it ran me $500. Some how I feel like I'm getting hosed. Can anyone tell me what a tune up consist of for a rx8 and price range they got. thanks

You did get hosed, what did the invoice say was done? But most dealers charge about $100/hr labor. The plugs go for about $100 from the dealer, what else did they do?
