However, I'll tell you this: If I hadn't purchased an extended warranty at the time I purchased the Acura I would have been destroyed: Since mid 05 I have: 1. replaced the entire transmission 2. replaced the entire climate control system Both of these issues would have cost a great deal more than the extended warranty. So, I am a believer in warranties. Others are not. I have always made out, but I can see the point that your saving money without it, especially if your handy (I am not). Jim

Replying to: jayrider (Nov 17, 2008 6:44 pm) $28K + 4K neg.equity = $32K.. 6 year loan.. In three years the warranty will be up and you'll have a 5 year old car that you still owe $18K on.. and will probably be worth $15K.. But, you'll want to trade, because your warranty is up... (any of this sound familiar?) Getting long term loans on used cars is not a great way to go.. Plus, you have expensive taste (don't we all?). If you've got the $4K in the bank, sell your car and payoff the loan.. Then, see what you can lease for $500/mo. for 36 months, if $500/mo. is your budget.. You'll be better off than constantly buying 2-yr-old luxury cars, and worrying about the warranty expiring.. Just my $0.02, kyfdx

BTW, my Acura is in the shop right now. Going to run me about $300.00. Transmission was covered, though (will be the 3rd transmission that will need to be replaced). All this happened last night.

Replying to: roadburner (Nov 13, 2008 9:47 am) I hope I got a good deal, and I'm anxious to drive it home on Friday... my first Bimmer!  By the way, do any of you know a good place to get window tinting done in the Cleveland/NE Ohio area? Thanks.
