[quote=“kramerbuccs24,post:69,topic:26712"”] as long as you have $12 or 13/month spending money after food gas insurance and rent you should be fine [/quote] Right. Same reasoning applies for trading in a FWD car with a lower payment for a RWD car with a higher payment to use as a daily driver in the northeast. ---

The only catch with that (extended maintenance plan) is 6 years form the vehicle “in service” date or 100K, which ever comes 1st. Your good until 2012 at least. Make sure you get new brakes before it runs out. That will basically pay for the cost of the maintenance plan. ---

Ask them to print you a “Warranty Vehicle Inquiry.” Since you didn’t buy the car they they will probably tell you no, but it’s worth a try. It will have all the dates listed for everything. I bought my 2006 X3 as CPO. My in-service date was 01/17/2006. On page 2 of the report it shows “NO COVERAGE” as of 1/17/2012 (6 years or 100k - which ever come 1st). Keeler can’t change BMW’s rules, they are only a franchise. Who did you talk to there? ---
