We have one on my wife's 2012 Audi Q5 that runs until 2019 or 2020 (can't remember right now) and is transferable if we sell the car before them. There is a dealer in CT that sells them for about 40% less than local dealers.
If I buy my M4 at the end of the lease I'd price one.

Only other item I bought an extended warranty on was my underwater camera (actually, wife got it, not me). Sadly, I left the battery door open on a dive in the Galapagos Islands and toasted the camera with water. Warranty paid it off in full...so, money well spent.

If I feel I need an extended warranty for a car I probably wouldn't buy the car. The N55 is a pretty dank engine, hence why I feel fine with just the factory warranty.
For other items I save my money too. I'm in a nice situation where I know my way around both a wrench and a multimeter (if you know what I mean) so when something does crap out I'm not stressing over fixing it. |

Yes, even the most reliable cars need oil changes and routine maintenance.

Sure, when your car is only worth $14k-$15k and you have a drive train failure, just buying another one makes sense. When it cost $15k-$20k to replace a drive train failure in your vehicle that is worth two or three times more is when it becomes valuable.
