Well, on 4/11 I bought a CPO 2006 ES330 with 25000 miles and extended the CPO warranty to 6yrs, 100K on the odometer for $1,310. The actual price was $2,070 or so, but the salesman sold it at cost. All the 'at cost' prices were on a page towards the back of the warranty binder he had, so I'm sure this is commonly done by the dealerships when requested. That page was Lexus printed and as far as I could tell it was definitely part of the original binder and not just a cheat cheat of his.
 
The extended CPO warranty is still bumper to bumper with all the original CPO warranty features, with the exception of roadside assistance (which is still good for 3 years). Also, you should note that your warranty wouldn't be for 6yr/125K, but rather for 6yr/102K since it goes by total odometer reading and not the milage you put on it.
 
Since you already purchased the vehicle, it's probably too late to get the discounted rate -- I used it as an incentive to get me to purchase (even though I had already decided I wasn't walking out the door without that vehicle).

Thank you for the response. This is good information. I was not aware they could break the package (w/o roadside assistance). The dealer is asking $2500 for 6yrs/125k bumper to bumper coverage. Do you have Nav in your 2006 ES330? is the cost different for cars w/Navs?

For the '06 the 6yr/125K advertised cost was $2,370 and the 'at cost' cost was roughly $1,500. Mine did have the Nav, and I didn't see all the pages he was flipping through, but I believe the warranty extension was listed only by year and model, and that features were not variables in the pricing structure.

As long as the car is within 4 years of first sale date, the pricing should be as follows per http://www.lexus.com/models/ES/warranty/vehicle_protection.html
 
ES 350
                              $0 deductible $50 deductible
6 years/70,000 miles $1,375 $1,325
7 years/75,000 miles $1,750 $1,700
5 years/100,000 miles $1,625 $1,575
6 years/100,000 miles $1,750 $1,700
7 years/100,000 miles $2,025 $1,975
 
The above pricing are MSRP or maximum one can pay but they are marked up 25-30%. You can get one at any dealership that can sell you for 30% less than MSRP.

ok, i've done some homework for my ES 350 (2007) platinum extended warranty; 7yr/100K, i called 5 dealerships btwn VA and NC and found every finance person to quote me a different rate (i guess depending on how much commission they felt like they wanted to make that day); i got quotes from $2225 - $1775---my understanding is that as long as you are under 4yr/50K you are eligible to buy the warranty and it doesn't figure into the price, except if they want to use it as a marketing ploy---
 
Here are my question:
1. has anyone found a better price than 1775$ for the platinum, no deductible; if so, where and who do i talk to
 
2. does anyone have real life experience w/ buying a platinum plan on line, are they legit and is a reputable company---you can suggest
 
3. has anyone had anything go wrong w/ their ES 350 (2007 and above models) where they are happy they had the ext warranty???
 
please advise, i am at 49,500; so i have to decide this week, savvy shopper

Hi Shopsavy: What response did you get on ALL THE THREE of your important questions? I am also looking for a BOTTOM PRICED warranty and comfy with a dealership in Maryland, DC or northern VA so that I can knock on their door if I need them. I have 2007 ES 350 with only 11,000 miles. Thanks.
