How much did you pay for the extended warranty, if you don't mind me asking? I had a quote from the general Lexus hotline and it was about 1700 bucks for extra two years and 150K kays or something like that... Was it $1K cheaper because you negotiated it when you bought the car, or did you buy the extended warranty afterwards?
My car's warranty is running out next year, considering upgrading it.
when i bought my car, I had 1 week of manufacture warranty left. due to the GS430 having so many gadgets, i decided to get ext. warranty. lexus line quoted me $2200 for 2yrs 100Kkays. chatswood quoted me $1200 for 2yr 100Kkays. Lexus line offer $100 discount when I haggled a bit. still no match for chatswood. but chatswood warranty is underwritten by some other company.
chatswood lexus assured me that it's like factory warranty incl. trim.
(there are other options, but this suits me most).
