New Z

I sold cars for years and I still bought one. I had one for my M3 & 350z, it saved me a bunch of cash in the end. Although I do ONLY buy manufacture warranties. The rest are a big gamble.

I tend to avoid the third party warranties too. With a M3 I'd without a doubt get one, my friend's E46 has a SPENSIVE tuneup due soon and he'll be replacing the ti valve springs then... not cheap.

I was considering a E39 M5 when shopping for my Z and the maintenance costs are what deterred me from the M5, which was $10k cheaper asking price.

I bought it. On a first year car model, the bugs are not always worked out, so I sleep better with the coverage.

The steering wheel lock would pay for half, when it fails.

To each his own. Generally extended warranties are not worth it.
