I purchased my Boxster from CarMax in Feb '08. Car had 53k miles on it. According to the CarFax report, it was leased as a company vehicle. CarMax offered me an extended warranty for 36months at a cost of $1800. After reading the contact, I took it! The CarMax covereage is bumper-to-bumper on everything including drive train, electrical & mechanical.
Just last month the tachometer took a dive. Brought it to CarMax to have them check on it. They called me and told me that they'll be shipping the car to my local Porsche dealer (Pioneer Centers in Miramar) to get it repaired.
Got an entirely new gauge cluster installed (1927.89) What did it cost me? A measly $50 deduductible. The extended warranty definetly paid for itself one just my first problem.
Think of an extended warranty along this line: "It's better to have it & not need it, then to need it & not have it"

Labor amount: $218
Parts amount: $1584.12

Total: $1805.12
Tax: $122.77
Amount owed: 1927.89

What I paid: $50/deductible
