Extended warranty $1900, is it worth it ?

All because i'm over 50000miles... $1900 inc tax for another 50K or 3years. Not really worried about the time, as i will probably do the 50K in just over 2years.


Just seems like alot of $$$$ for warranty that is not transferable if i trade the car in.


The Main reasons i've kept it, is i enjoy driving the CLS and can't beat getting 500miles on a full tank also the options the car has Vs what i paid for it you can't beat that, I wish, i hated the car would make the whole process alot easier ...

I'd pass on the warranty and put the 1900 in the bank. That will fix a lot of problems.

Well i've talk about it before, do a search and you can read my posts about it. I'm thinking with installing the Thermoblock mod, upgraded filter and upgraded sparkplugs, there should be no reason i can't get 550 on a full tank.

Maybe its because S Florida is flat, less work for the engine, who knows but if my CLS can get 500 so should yours, there the same car. Remember 500miles is with NO WOT, nice and easy when you need up, keeping between 70-75mph, anything over that can be a fuel killer....

its not worth it, i mean CL does not have many problems ( mainly the tranny and wraped rotors ) Our tanny are covered by dealership for 7 yrs/ 100k miles already. the rotors are not even covered by the extended warranty. Since you only can get 50k or 3 yrs out of it, i dont think it is worth spending the 1900$$..

500 miles per tank is really good...
