$2,500 for a 3rd party warranty, 6 year, 100,000 miles for a new G35 is probably at least $1,000 more than you should be paying. I ended up paying less than $1,6000 for a 7 year, 100,000 miles with $50 deductable for a Infiniti Warranty. There is a pretty large markup on warranties and some dealers try to get as much as they can get. Remember, you can buy your Infiniti warranty from any dealer in the country. I've found that with other car brands, some dealers will advertise on the internet. Also, keep in mind that it's generally safer to get the manufacturer warranty than a third party. Hope this helps.

What are people's thoughts on purchasing the Infinity Extended Warranty on a loaded G35 Sedan? Is there any point to buying it upfront vs. buying it before factory warranty expires? Anybody know of any dealers selling it at a significant discount? If you buy it upfront, you don't get any significant benefit from it for four years, but it will begin being prorated from purchase date (if you traded in your car).

The dealer offered me a 100,000 7yr warranty, but it was $2,500.
I turned it down, thinking I could find better somewhere else.
 
It's good to get into one as soon as possible.
The Infiniti price changes 90 days after taking delivery.
Most third party providers set their price on the mileage the car currently has.
 
Getting it as soon as possible saves you money.
 
I personally thought I would skip it, but as I get to know all the bells and whistles in my fully loaded 'X', I'm starting to think a warranty may be a good idea.

Check out the 3rd party warranty places, like warrantydirect.com they have the 07G35 for 7/100 $0 deductible for $1300. or you can get their best bumper to bumper for less then $2400 on an 8/120 $0 deductible.
 
I've heard of people getting the Infiniti warranty for $1600. you might want to give them a call and make an offer at that price and see if they bite.
 
Some people think your better off taking that money and investing it to make money. Using it if you need it.. if you don't use it, it's still your cash. but personally I'm not worried about nickle and dime issues, I'm concerned about major $4K repairs that you have to get done in order to even dump the car. i.e. powertrain.

I think the powertrain warranty is 6 years, 70K miles. The original bumper-to-bumper warranty is 4 years, 60K miles. How long do you plan to keep the car?
 
I actually bought the Infiniti 7 year/100K miles $50 deductable for around the $1600 price. I was considering canceling it, but it sounds like I got a decent deal. I much prefer the infiniti warrant over a 3rd party warranty since you don't have to worry about the company going out of business, etc. Has anyone beat that price by any significant amount? You can earn a few hundred in interest putting the money in the bank waiting for the original four year warranty to expire.

$1600... I'd jump on that too.
My offer was twice that.
 
What dealer was this?

My thoughts exactly scottm123. I bought 2 G's last week...one for my sister, a loaded G35x, and an identical G35 Journey for myself. Think I did pretty good on the price, but the 7/100,000 warranty started at $2,500 with a $100 deductible. I've been shopping the warranty...my sister got hers at her local dealership for $1895, with $100 deduct...Sacramento Infiniti, where I got both cars offered me the same warranty for $2092...I've been playing phone tag with them, but I expect that they will be giving me a better price now that I have new information. Sure would like to know WHERE mrg2 got it for $1600 with a $50 deduct.

I've found similar pricing through third party companies, but I'm more than a little hesitant sending close to 2K to a company I don't know.
I'd love to have coverage through Infiniti.

Yes, I agree. I've heard from many people that 3rd party warranties can be problematic. I think of this like medical insurance....you want your providers to be happy and get paid, otherwise it's reflected in the service received. I would wait to buy the warranty because it really only adds 3 years and 40,000 to the original warranty, but I'm afraid it won't be offered. Might as well do it now...that way I'm covered.
