Date: September 25th, 2018 12:41 PM Author: light stage Trying to help a friend buy a car. He's looking at used Lexus and BMW.
The car he wants is a 328 wagon. He'd likely get a 2015-2016 with roughly 30k miles.
Would he be crazy to do this? Are the repairs and maintenance costs really that crazy? Also a factor is that he has an extremely short commute and only drives around 10k miles/year. |

|
Date: September 25th, 2018 3:55 PM Author: Abusive bull headed puppy I really think the luxury car warranties are subsidized by all the warranties sold on Toyotas and the like. I got a 35k mile warranty on a Benz for around 3k with a $100 deductible. Pretty sure it’ll pay for itself the first time the sunroof or auto-adjusting side view mirror breaks.
Obviously no straight up insurance company is going to intentionally lose money, but given the rates Carmax charges something is up. See the Range Rover article. |
|
Date: September 25th, 2018 5:31 PM Author: Chartreuse locale preventive strike That is true on manufacturer warranties. For example, my Jeep has a lifetime warranty with a $100 deductible that cost me under $3k. I've probably exceeded the cost already and only have like 111k miles on it and plan on keeping it for many more years as a second car. Yeah, they're subsidizing it. And it makes sense because that warranty was a primary reason I bought a Jeep.
But I don't think Carmax has any relation to any manufacturer. |

Date: September 25th, 2018 3:32 PM Author: seedy school cafeteria goal in life I have owned a CPO 550i for 2 years. So far, it has required no maintenance beyond regular services.
When buying a BMW, it is EXTREMELY important to research the various drivetrain packages you are considering and confirm there are no known widespread issues. As a corollary to this, I would never buy a BMW with a newly designed engine within the first two years of its introduction.
If you are wondering about the basis for my warnings, I am specifically thinking about the new turbo I-6 in tje 335i (just ask Nutella) and the turbo V-8 in the 550i (this engine was especially bad), both of which were new designs that were introduced 4 or 5 years ago. The follow-up redesign of these engines have been relatively reliable.

Date: September 25th, 2018 9:29 PM Author: Ivory misanthropic rigor depressive i think the extended maintenance is not worth it. they will charge you a couple grand for "free maintenance" but you change oil, brakes, etc so rarely that even if it's 300-500 per it will be at least 3-4 years before it makes up for the prepaid plan
extended warranty on the other hand...like someone said above, i have had ~3k worth of repairs every year that were covered by the warranty including bad subwoofer, bad headset, bad valvetronic motor, crack/leak at the oil filter, car going into limp mode b/c of an issue with an engine cooling fan. i paid 3k for the extended warranty and it's saved me 6k easy.
of course some people never have anything go wrong with theirs, but i'd be willing to pay the 3-4k for peace of mind
and he should at least get a straight 6. whats the fun of the " ultimate driving machine" if you got a honda motor in it. |

Service costs are about the same as Lexus, i.e., overpriced (wife has one). Only problem I've had is oil leaks - took three trips to get that fixed. Warranty coverage, but would have been about $1700 otherwise. Has low miles, as I only use it at the winter place. Fun car, no plans to get rid of it.
