Default extended warranty

What do you guys think about buying extended warranty for 6 year 100k? Will ease worry about turbo replacements past standard warranty..or do you people not even plan on having your S4 for that long...

With the extra you would pay for gas and housing, you could buy 10 turbos.

Default Emissions warranty

Federal
*General Emissions Warranty - 2 years, 24,000 miles
*Major Emissions Components Warranty - 8 years or 80,000 miles (Includes catalytic converter, engine control unit)

CA / Mass
*General Emissions Warranty - 3 years, 50,000 miles
*High priced parts warranty (over $390 in 1997, adjusted by CPI subsequntly) - 7 years, 70,000 miles

Sorry, I don't have any more detail on what is covered under "Major Emissions Component Warranty" - maybe someone can go to the Federal Governemnt site and browse through CFR 40-86 and find more detail.

about $2300-2400 for an extra 2 years to 100k miles...I think that you can get your money back any time if you don't use it
