[BiturboS4] Extended Warranty

[Marc A. Abernethy]

Many will not take twin turbos.  Can you blame them?  I used
www.warrantygold.com when I had my TT RX-7.  Cost about $2,000.  Couple of
months later the engine and turbos blew up.  They were great about paying.
Total of about $10,000.  I would have thought they would exclude TTs but I just
checked and they will cover the S4.  Between $1,500 and $3,500 depending on the
coverage.  Although it worked out well for me, the jury is still out on
extended warranties.  Also, they may cover you then if you make a claim. reject
a modified car.  Something to look into.  With a large claim, they send an
inspector to see the car.
