The overall feeling I've seemed to gather is to not bother.. put the money you would spend in an interest bearing account as a just in case and call it a day

I was going to disagree, but no I think if that is all the miles you are putting on the Crossfire i would stash the money in an interest bearing account, till you need it. If I was only putting in 4M a year it will be a long time till you need anything if you are still treating it like a beby, which it sounds like your doing. As for me I am waiting too with a 2007, for the day I get sticker shock on how much it is going to cost me to repair something. Just a thought.

I bought my 2007 base coupe from the dealer. I have the lifetime powertrain warranty. A couple years after I bought it, I was called about the MaxCare warranty. For $1100, I would get coverage for up to 60000 miles. I decided to go for it, because my Crossfire is a daily driver, and I only paid $16000 for it brand new with no miles. I have 30000 miles on it now, and I think I will put another 30000 miles on it before November of 2015, when the coverage ends. Have you found out how much the MaxCare warranty will cost you, and how long the coverage lasts? I'm wondering if it might not be worth it for you, since you drive the car so little. In my case, the $1100 was good insurance. Just my opinion, you'll have to make the final decision. Good Luck! Oh, by the way, I have not used the MaxCare warranty - the car has been rock - solid.

the maxcare is only if you drive it like you stole it.. but you have the power train,,, so i would say if it was me no. I had the MC and loved it ,, and i only paid 1200 for the 100.000 mile 7 year with 50 deductible..

you do know if you get the seven year that you really only getting four years because they count first three years ( which you have already driven) as part of the warranty.maybe you should take a look at this post. jim
P S the max care covers 90% of the car.
