If you plan to keep the car for a long time, and you are particular about things working (or working right) get the Elite warranty.

The cheapest place I found was at Infiniti of Scottsdale. Here are the details:

Talk to Courtney Mutema (finance manager) at Infiniti of Scottsdale, AZ, @ 480-941-0055. She offers Elite plans at $100 over cost (according to her and Joe Tsensky). She is very nice and knows what she is doing.

I got Elite coverage on my 2006 M45, and covers me until 2014!

I'm not saying it's a bad idea, but just realize what the process requires.
i know what ya mean man,.. but all those things are just more legit ways to keep the dealer from tryin' to screw ya.

plus, u'll have a new car rental more than likely anyway


i wouldnt mind,.. they could take their time...lol

I have the Infiniti Elite with zero decutable. I have piece of mind now for the next 3 1/2 years. It covers everything except trim. My CD changer will be taking a sh.t soon and that alone will pay for the cost of the warranty. Just stay away from all 3rd party warranties. This Elite is the same as the factory warranty. Good luck.

i just bought the infiniti elite for 48k or 3 years which brings me to about 99k miles with ZERO deductible for $1400 which is a pretty sweet deal considering i dont pay out of pocket at all, i got it from riverside infiniti, let me know if you need help getting that price

The pricing for these Infiniti extended warranties are fixed here in Florida. You can however, shop around in other states for competitive pricing.

just sayin'..
Neighbor bought a used car from a local dealership. Purchased an extended warranty from a third party company at the dealership.
Tranny went bad and he took it back to the same dealership and was told the third party company went under.
Had to pay out of pocket.

Get a warranty backed by the dealership - either Infiniti or Nissan.

I purchsed a Nissan extended warranty when I bought my coupe used. Would rather deal with my Nissan dealership than Infiniti.

can these extended warranties still be purchased if they car is past the BASIC warranty but still falls under the powertrain?

I'm looking at getting an 04 thats being sold here, it only has 27k miles on it...can i get anything to extend my warranty or is it too late?

I got my 4yr 48,000 mile elite after my car was out of the bumper to bumper for over a year. It's up to the individual dealership.
