I've never been a big fan of extended warranties however since my 2011 35i warranty is about to expire and I'm a bit concerned over the potential cost of repair for twin turbos, DCT and power top I reversed my thinking.
My credit union offers extended warranties through a company called IWS. Credit union dude said they have had good success with them and no complaints. You can have your car repaired at a BMW dealer (IWS says they "partner" with BMW). I confirmed with my local dealer that they do accept IWS's warranty program. BBB rated A+
I purchased a 4 year 80K miles (I have 23K on the clock), Platinum Plan (Exclusion policy that covers everything except of course maintenance items) Transferable to next owner for $45. Or you can get a prorated refund. Usual road side service, car rental etc.
Cost was $1576 including tax. Supposedly since this goes through credit unions only there is a discount. ?? BMW warranties seem to run $2500 to 3000 depending on coverage.
Just thought I'd pass along if anyone is considering purchasing.
