Worth it? Always a subjective decision for the individual owner, but here's experience. I bought an extended warranty from VOB BMW in 2004 for my 2001 M5 for an additional 6 yrs or total 100K miles (Elite coverage; covers all electronics, including sound system), whichever occurs first. $100 deductible. So far, it has covered a $1400 replacement of the instrument cluster and another $200 repair of another mechanical part (window generator, if I remember). Has it fully paid for itself? No. Has it provided tangible benefits and helped me sleep better, and will I sleep better through expiration in another 18 months? Darn right.
Just make sure what is covered (especially electronics and computer items) and what isn't (clutch replacements, etc.) Bonbahn
