So I bought a 2018 xDrive 3.5i today with only 32700 miles on it. Dealer tried to sell me the extended warranty at $5.5K and came down eventually to $3.9K.

It adds about $75 to my monthly installment. So wondering whether I should get it or not. The low mileage makes me think I shouldn’t but it is a 5.year old car already.

Thoughts or advice appreciated!

    True but they play the game of probability with a large sample size whereas my sample size is 1.

    It’s basically an insurance policy in the end innit? You could have major issues and it would be covered or you could drive accident free for 3 years and the money would be ‘wasted’. That’s how I’m seeing it right now, a $1300 per year insurance policy for the car.
