Just got an RS4. Dealer wanted to sell me the extended warranty-Audi pure protection by fidelity warranty services in Florida. I only put about 5000 miles a year on the car. They have a plan called platinum for 3 more years which extends the warranty to 7yr or 70k miles for $2000. It excludes all wear and tear items. What do you guys think? Is it even worth bothering?

So after 4 years you will have 20K on the clock ...after 7 years, if you keep it that long, you will have 35K @ 5K/yr.

Nothing major should screw up during those miles. Put that $2000 in a CD and save for any future repairs.

It is not worth it in your case since you won't put enough miles on the car.

the best time to buy an extended warranty is a month or two before your factory warranty expires (unless you know you're going to exceed 50k miles in the first 4 years).
