2014 S4 with 17k miles/yr a good buy if getting a warranty?
 
Hey Guys,

Got offered sweet deal on a 2014 s4 with 52k miles on it. Clean carfax and clean title. Being offered to me at a ridic price so considering getting it. It will be my first audi. Currently have a bmw.
Do the 17k miles a year really do matter if I plan on getting a bumper-bumper 60k mile warranty? Want to make sure I make the right decidsions.

Thank you

Buy the car and forget the warranty. You are throwing your money away. I blew $2700 on a 3 yr warranty that I had no need to use.These cars are remarkably reliable, even with higher mileage. I now have 78k miles on my car . I suggest, instead of buying a warranty, put that money into a slush fund for future issues or to pay for the tires, . FYI, brakes,rotors and battery that you WILL eventually need. Or just put away $50-$75 away/month for repairs. You will end up ahead of the game financially. BTW, you will not miss your BMW. What are you currently driving?

Thanks for the input man. Was just worried on the miles it has since I usually drive 15k miles a yr. Looking at the long term side of things. I drive a 08 328i

You won't believe how much of an upgrade the S4 will be.
