I bought my 911 C4 recently with additonal 36000 miles/3 years and bumper to bumper from local credit union. I paid a lot $5k for platinum, could have gotten the silver for 3.5k but so far paid for $2K dealer work for me...In two months, rear light switch, door switch, spark plug tubes, main rear seal, misc...I am thinking of whether I did paid too much but I bought the car about 12K below KBB, with extreme negotiations over 3 mos... I could cancel and prorate the warranty also...I could sell with the warranty as well. It is from Mercury..Except emissions and navigation unit, they cover everything. Obviously, the insurance companies come out on top: They get our cash up front, and we get [hopefully] peace of mind. The only question you need to ask yourself is whether or not $5K is worth your peace of mind. I think $5K's a little much for your car, but if (1) you could afford it and (2) it lets you sleep better at night as long as you own an expensive car, it's worth it! When you think about it, "peace of mind" is pretty hard to fix with a price tag, as any insurance salesman will emphasize. They always win though, in the long run. But so do you, when you frame it in this context. Remember, you shouldn't be betting solely on whether or not they'll pay out more than you paid for the policy; that's not actually what they're selling. They're selling you a warm and fuzzy feeling... an unusually expensive one, in your case :D Just my 2 cents... I shopped quite a bit actually...And most warranty companies are around $4-5K for my car... Considering my car needed 2K work, hence I bought the warranty such that they would fix it:-) There is still 3 year and 36K miles, I believe this car will cost much more than this...I also own a BMW and over 2 years repairs costed me over 3K...go figure.

My both headlight washer nozzles are broken. The dealer told me $600 to change them..I said forget about it... How can I fix them cheap:-)
