It Is Official... just extended my warranty
I bought my car brand new back in August of 2005. It has been 7 years now! At first I got a lot of attention. Lots of people yelling "nice car" and giving the thumbs up. I had a worker at the gas station come out and ask for a tour of my car. It got a lot of attention in my first few years of ownership. Lately it has died off.
After my 3 year/36K mile warranty expired I purchased an extended Max Care. I got my money back and then some. I just decided to buy another Max Care. This will add another 5 years on my car.
I know some people around here claim our cars are rock solid. They really are if you don't drive them often. I was using mine as a daily driver and had nothing but dumb little problems. Yes, the major components are rock solid and the car was reliable but it was always the little things that broke and bothered me. The cost on some of these parts can be very pricey! One repair alone could pay for the entire warranty. Having the peace of mind is worth it to me... and I guarante something will break within the next 5 years!
