Just because it's an exotic, doesn't make it impossible to work on. I'm confused. I'd take pride changing pads, rotors, etc on my car..

Two very different scenarios. Here they are:
1. DIY brake job and oil change etc on a 200k car because you are a true car enthusiast and you get a boner from hearing screwdrivers ratchet and getting grease on your hands.
2. DIY brake job and oil change on that same car because you BLEW your money on a used ass Gallardo (pre-abused by ex banker/mortgage broker) and actually cannot afford proper maintenance.
I'm laughing at number 2 here. More power to you if you like to and can do that kind of stuff. But being prepared to eat the cost of maintaining any car, new or old, expensive or cheap is as much a factor of owning that car, as is getting money together to buy said car.
