3-Series (E46, E90)Chat relating to the BMW 3-Series from 1999 to Current. Models include: BMW 316i, BMW 318i, BMW 318Ci, BMW 320i, BMW 323i, BMW 325i, BMW 330i, BMW 328 Ci, BMW 328i, BMW 325i/xi, BMW 330Ci, BMW 320d, BMW 330d, BMW 335d.
I'm in the process of buying a used 2000 328ci. I got one of those loans online and they have an option to purchase an extended warranty up to 100,000 miles. The rough estimate for the warranty is around 1800.00. The car has 48000 miles on it. Do you guys recommend such an option? The owner said he never had a problem with the car. But I heard that BMWs are really expensive to fix so this may be worth it if a couple of repairs pop up. This is also my first BMW so I don't know how reliable they are.
bmw is a pretty reliable car, but there can always be exceptions (as with everything else). What does the warrant cover? I don't think it would be a bad idea to just get it.
Keep in mind difference between full maintenance vs full warranty. Full maintenance covers things like break pads, oil service, filter changes, etc up to 100K. Should be about $1300 + while full warranty is warranty that covers machines.
