Ready to race!
Thanks for all the help everyone. I get my tints done at Auto Lovers in Middletown, NY; $200 for a four door. They have a lifetime warranty and apply the tint all the way up to the top edge, whereas most places leave a space at the top. My girl opened the windows after an ice storm and scraped part of the tint off, after I had them for four years, and they replaced the tint on both windows no questions asked. I didn't even have the receipt or any paperwork.
As far as the optional plans, I'm going to add some numbers for anyone else that is in the process. I didn't go for any of them. If I could haggle the costs down significantly I might consider them, but I work nights so I wasn't up for it.
The maintenance plan included services upto 70k miles, so it would only include one DSG service (which up here runs +/- $500). At over $1500, it isn't worthwhile. The first two services are free anyway, which reduces the "value" even more.
The wheel and tire plan looked promising at a little over $700, but the deductibles and plan limits turned me off to it. I'll just buy a set of tires with roadhazard to replace the OEM, maybe a winter set of steelies to protect the rims.
The Dent and Scratch plan I don't remember much about. The extended warranty either, sorry. My local dealer emailed me, I told them I already bought a car, they responded that if I got a better deal to come in with the purchase order and they'll give me $50. I'll stop in one day when I pass it on my errands and see if it pans out.
