Yes, I heard about that. Although, I think it was because he didn't have a Forum Vendor account but was offering the same dealership warranties the vendors were selling but for waaaay cheaper. If I was a Forum Vendor Sponsor I would have gotten him banned too.LOL I wouldn't want anyone else taking my clients especially, if they sell my exact same product for cheaper.

Another data point, got the BMW maintenance plan ultimate +2 (72month/75000miles) and after market warranty(96month/75000miles) for $8577 from Ben(I think I saw multiple ppl on the forum recommended him). Not sure if it’s a good deal or not.

Looks like she raised her prices then. She just quoted me this last week.

Data point (Extended Warranty): 96m/100K miles [96 Months "an additional 4 years" (total of 8 years when added to 4-years factory) and 100K Miles, Full (Bumper to Bumper) Coverage, $100/visit deductible after the 4th year]
Cost: $3,750 before taxes

IMPORTANT Note to everyone: make sure you understand what you are paying for when buying a warranty. Some dealers present a 48 months as if it is 48 months from the day you sign )(aka, if you buy it 3 years before your factory warranty expires , you are only getting/buying 1 YEAR effectively). Some dealers present 48 months as 48 months from the day the factory warranty expires, which is then a TRUE 4-year warranty. All what matters is the START and EXPIRATION date of the warranty, not just the length. Do not fall in these traps by some dealers. My warranty above is a good example. It is a 96 months warranty, but it is a true 96 months that equals 48 months extension, because the 96-months clock starts from day 1. Hence effectively the 96 months warranty is a 48 months (or 4-years extension) from the day factory warranty expires, which is still an awesome deal giving me 8 years of coverage for just $3,750.

I see a 48 months and 60 and 72 months warranties above, but they are not specifying if that means X months from the vehicle 1st owner purchase date, or X months from the warranty contract signing date or X months from the date the factory warranty expires.

This is a very good point for those of you who desire some kind of extended warranty, and is something you should definitely look out for and ask about. In general, the length of the warranty advertised (especially from dealers) is the TOTAL length of coverage from when the car was originally put into service. So take the length of warranty that is advertised, like a few posts above, subtract the original 4yrs/50k mile factory warranty, and then you have how much additional NEW warranty you are actually getting.

The devil is in the details…

Waise and Taktix1.

Thank you for sharing. Are the prices you shared for a BMW warranty? OR a third party warranty company?

On my very first new vehicle, I got screwed by a third party warranty company going out of business. Nowadays, I don't keep my vehicles long enough to need to have coverage beyond what's included. But when I occasionally do need a long warranty (like for my wife's vehicle, she keeps hers longer), I always purchase an extended warranty from the manufacturer.

I just bought it because it is added to the loan at this rate. I have time to cancel and considering option.

Hey what bmw dealership was selling easycare for $6300? I want to buy it because i have easycare on my m6 and 550 and they cover literally everything and paid out thousands for my car repairs but the quotes for easycare totalcare are ridiculous now even my friends x5 had the same price quotes and now its add on miles not from inservice anymore

Can anyone tell me if your BMW dealership can have lower price?

BMW Ultimate care including brakes & rotor:
72 months /100K miles @ $5,000
84 months /125K miles @ $6,450

Yes all maintenance plans have a $500 discount option
For our x7 last month we got it for $4499 and i confirmed this discount on my m6 with my service advisor when i went to go extend the maintenance plan

- With the BMW branded Tire & Wheel plan my dealer will replace the tires rather than try to plug or patch them. Some dealers try to sell you a cheaper plan not from BMW, that will insist on a repair instead of replacement if possible.

With the Platinum & Cosmetic options, the BMW Tire & Wheel Protection covers 8 cosmetic repairs. On her last car we used 7 of them from her "Curb Scraping" the wheels. It also includes lost key replacement, paintless dent removal and windshield repairs

-With the BMW Plan, if you need a tire or wheel and it is on backorder, my dealer will give us a loaner to drive until the tire is available.

The cost of these plans has gone up quite a bit in the last few years and the price is very negotiable. Keep telling the finance person the price is too high and watch them lower it by the minute. You must buy the BMW plan at delivery. It can't be purchased afterwards.

The cheapest tire and wheel warranty is AAA tire and wheel. 7 years for $1800 and it covers tires and wheels + cosmetic wheel repair + key replacement + dent repair all for $1800 which is crazy cheap

I have it on my m6 and they already covered a key replacement

Have you guys checked into Geicos mechanical breakdown coverage ( MBI). It’s only like 100-200 a year and provides 7yr/100k coverage with $250 deductible. Lot of people have it and very pleased. You can purchase it if your car is less than a year old and has 15k miles. The only caveat is you have to get all the repairs approved prior to getting any work done but doesn’t seem to be a problem.

I would like to share a positive experience working with Christine Newman to get BMW Ultimate Care Plus for my recently purchased CPO. She was very responsive. Price was very good. It was an overall pleasant purchase experience. If anyone is looking to purchase a BMW Extended Service Contract (aka warranty) or BMW Ultimate Care (aka maintenance), I highly recommend reaching out to her.
