I just bought a 2011 370z and was considering the extended warranty. On my last car (Toyota) I was able to buy from a Toyota Dealer out of state and saved hundreds of dollars on the warranty. Does anyone know if Nissan will allow this or has anyone tried it? I don't see any threads here about people trying to actually save money on the extended warranty.

Should be no problem.these extended warranties can be bought from any Nissan dealer in the country. They will quote different prices, so I got the warranty i wanted by sending out price quotes. it's cheaper to get one as soon as you buy the car, else, as the original 3 yr 36K comes close to expiration, it will be more expensive to purchase an extended, plus the ordeal of getting your car inspected at the dealership.. another added expense. If you get an extended within first 30 days of new car purchase, don't need to submit the inspection report.. Good luck |

I've done some research on this and people are recommending this Nissan dealer in California for good extended warranty pricing for Security+Plus plans and $50 deductible and it assumes you have under 12,000 miles. Can someone verify these are good prices?

Anyone looking to wait and decide after they get closer to the 3 yr, 36,000 mile warranty needs to consider a required preowned inspection after 12,000 miles or 12 months of age of the car. The Preened inspection is to be completed through a Nissan dealership and is either a 95 point or 159 point inspection. I am not sure which one is required. All cost and fees will need to be paid by the car owner to the dealership for those required inspection services before an extended warranty can be processed. I am now waiting for the proper documentation that is being sent via UPS for signatures. Again, to each their own on whether to purchase an extended warranty but 76.10 down, 38 dollars a month interest free for 17 months is hard to not consider. 370Z gold preferred package of 60 Months and or 75,000 mile coverage for a total price of 761.00. Again, I can't complain on the extended warranty price tag. Last edited by SS66; 04-27-2011 at 08:17 AM. |

Keeping in mind you are probably really paying for the upper range of mileage and years on these, it seems best that if you're going to buy one at all you might as well go with most miles and years possible, as most things start to break as the car approaches 100k miles. So I've narrowed my choice down to the 3 I've highlighted above here are the prices with $75 added for over 12k miles on vehicle and $0 deductible 370Z Gold Preferred 72 Month 75,000 Mile Coverage CODE: 370Z72m75k Price: $1,260.00 or 17 Monthly Payments @ 0% APR.: $66.71 10% Down Payment: $126.00 370Z Gold Preferred 72 Month 100,000 Mile Coverage CODE: 370Z72m100k Price: $1,700.00 or 17 Monthly Payments @ 0% APR.: $90.00 10% Down Payment: $170.00 370Z Gold Preferred 84 Month 120,000 Mile Coverage CODE: 370Z84m120k Price: $2,117.00 or 17 Monthly Payments @ 0% APR.: $112.08 10% Down Payment: $211.70

When I turned down the extended warrenty they obvious couldn't believe it. Had to tell them no three times. Plans I have with car it will be out of warrenty anyways. They ended up giving it to me for free. She said happy new year. And I made sure it was.

Excellent, glad I found the right one. I bought the car on 23 December so I'm still under 30 days, I was thinking about getting the 96 Month 120,000 Mile Coverage. What is everyone else getting? This is a complicated car and I'm sure it is expensive to have work done to it so I don't mind paying for this. If I sell it, it's transferable and if I don't use it I can get back a refund of the remainder of the warranty.

With all the electronics, sensors, high end navigation unit, a complicated transmission, it does make sense to get one. I had a mercedes sl 500 before this car, and the extended warranty covered $18,000 worth of expenses.. so yes, it's definitely a peace of mind. I am quite certain the Z will be ten times more reliable, plus i was little bummed to find out nissan only offers a standard 3 yrs > 36,000 bumper to bumper, while most manuf. offer at least 4 and 50K.. anyhow for my peace of mind, i got the extended.. some say it's a waste of money, but from my personal experience, they are invaluable when you actually do need them. |

I thought i would chime in becasue i am that "smuck" some of you refer to... haha i know most finance guys are hated by customers but the fact is alot of people are on a tight budget and if something breaks on a car they simply cannot afford to repair it. That is who they are mainly intended for. I work at a Buick GMC store and we use a warranty company called EASYCARE. They are the only motor trend recomended warranty. As a finance guy we are only paid off what we sell... (warranty, dent care, key care, paint care, and rate mark-up)... so you can see why we push it so hard... i cant look-up cost on a nissan plan but easycare "total care" will cover anything that that will.....(maybe more), the dealer cost on a 2011 370z for a 72/100k was $1325 with a 100 deductible. As a finance guy with some morals i will mark it up anywhere from 250-1000. another thing to think about is the easycare i use offers a 0% for up to 18 months. Most warranty companies have that option for ya. I can anwser any questions yall have about any product....hope this helps...

I bought the 96 month 120,000 mile Gold Preferred warranty. So far I must say I'm not impressed with this dealers customer service. I call them for some additional information and they answered my questions but seemed like they could care a less if they sold me this $1800 warranty or not. Also the person I spoke to didn't really seem that well informed. I told him my car was 3 weeks old and had 450 miles on it and I asked if it needed an inspection and he said no. After I buy the warranty online I get an automated EMAIL from them saying that ALL cars must have an inspection with NO EXCEPTIONS. I EMAIL them about this and 24 hours later still no response. Also asked about getting a refund on the warranty if I never used it and he said that it's Nissans policy to not refund warrantys. I know this is partially untrue because I do beleive at the very least I have a certain number of days after I purchase the warranty to back out of it. I know with my Toyota warranty I was able to get a prorated refund on the unused portion even after a couple years into it.

You don't say? I've never heard that before! Seriously this is a very old arguement and I'm amazed people are still making posts like this. You either love or hate extended warranties and EVERYBODY has had a different experience with them. I'll come back to this forum in 8 years when my warranty expires and let you know if I made my $1800 BACK.
