Easy Car warranty worth the money???

I'm buying a 2006 330xi with 45k miles on it, so i have the warranty for 5k more miles or essentially 5 months. The warranty covers everything except normal wear and tear such as paint, glass, head unit, navigation, speakers and normal wear and tear on the tires. It does cover if i run over a nail and damage the tire or if i hit something that bends my rims. The deductible is $100 and the warranty is from the day I buy it (today) , 36 months 36k miles. so it basically adds on to the factory warranty 31 months 31k miles. is it worth the money?

what are some common issues that occur with 3 series? 330xi?

How much is the warranty? And having a BMW out of warranty is risky.

warranty cost

sorry, the warranty is $2900 36months 36k miles, but b/c my factory warranty is 5k more miles basically extending the warranty 31months 31k miles. The warranty is through Easy care, if anyone has heard of it. Is there a better warranty company?

Easy care is a pretty big 3rd party warranty company used by many dealers, but you failed to mention if there was a deductible for your coverage. And I believe that there are different coverage levels as well..

$2900 seems pretty damn high. I just purchased a used car for a friend and got the best package with $0 deductible which somewhat mirrors what a factory warranty would cover and the same mileage/length for $2050.

YMMV as you're in a different state, but shouldn't vary by $850. GL.
