Have any of you ever bought GAP insurance when you bought your cars? Is it worth it?
I'm upgrading to a 12 GTI this week and the dealer is offering GAP insurance for a cost of $600. I know for the first 2yrs I will be in negative equity at worst of about about $4500, but once I make some extra payments I'll catch up in 2yrs. I would essentially be paying $600 to insurance a $4500 GAP from replacement cost to the outstanding loan.
Worth it??
*And BTW I'm in Canada where you cannot buy GAP outside the dealer. Oh, Canada.
