About to pick up my 335 - Advice please
What should I get as an option, if anything, from the finance manager? Extended warranty, tire protection, etc? I'm heading over in a few hours thus everything will be appreciated, thanks!

Depends, what do YOU want and what do YOU want to pay?

Just keep in mind if you do go with any package (tires, extended warrenty...) they can all be negoiated... if they say "$500 for the tire package" tell them... "$500 is alot... i'll do it for $300" see what they say... more often then not they will say fine... its money in their pocket and $200 in yours |

Get the tire and rim contract. Definitely worth it since the run-flats are expensive.
Extended warranty depends on if it's a lease or purchase and the length of time you plan on owning the car. |

rim and tire package doesn't count if u hit a curb or if the tires wear out... since the run flats are expensive my plan is to drive with them for about 7,500-10,000 miles and then replace them... im going to store the run flats until i have to hand the car back in... so i never have to replace the runflats and i'll be putting a better tire on the car (better meaning smoother ride) |

Well, I came back with nothing extra purchased!! You should've seen the expression on the finance manager... "Do you mind if I ask you why? Is because of the price?"... were his questions.
The only thing I was considering was the extended warranty, but he quoted me $2,900 I believe so I declined. And unfortunately here in CA, they don't offer the wheel and tire protection for now. |
