Extended Warranty?

[the Kolektor]

I would think it could be determined on a case by case basis. I had a 98 wrangler and had an extended warranty. I was driving down the road, I never did rock crawling or anything crazy, and the ring and pinion went out, tore up the axle and it was all covered by the warranty. I had a $50 deductible and had to pay for fluids but the other parts and labor were just above the $2000+ cost at the dealer. To me, it's worth the cost, to others who may not of ever had to use it, probably not.

I have had it on previous cars but my work is right around the corner now so I don't drive the 12K I used to a year at my previous work place.

I honestly don't think it would pay off for you to get one, but we could get you a long term plan with short miles that could be less expensive. It is really up to you.

Yes, please send me an email directly and I'll be happy to help you out. Again though, I wouldn't buy it until right before 12 months and 12,000 miles.

Extended warranties are a gamble basically you are paying in advance for what could be future service work on your Camaro. IMHO I would only purchase an extended warranty if you use the Camaro as a daily driver or you know that you will use up the 3yr/36k bumper to bumper warranty. I can tell you I purchased it Why simple I use the Camaro as a daily driver I am at 30k miles after owning it for 16 months. If the power seat motor goes that alone has paid for my extended warranty. If the sunroof motor goes I am covered.

If you have the discipline, set aside $50/mo in an account to cover catastrophic failures after the 3/36 and 5/100 expires. You will have saved $1800 in 3 yrs and $3000 in 5 yrs plus interest. If you never need it, great..you just saved the premium you would have paid for an extended warranty.

I don't like people that crash # like that , but you are an exception

You can negotiate the price of an extended warranty. Most dealers sell this for more than MSRP. Your dealer is going to try to give you a bad deal, like the idiot he or she is.
