Greetings:

I am wondering if anyone had purchased an extended warranty for your new Subaru car, especially for Turbo ones like 2005 WRX or 2005 Legacy 2.5GT. If so, does it worth it? I had an offer of

- $500 4Y (factory 3Y/36K + 1Y xtra) 60,000 miles
- $1000 5Y (factory 3Y/36K + 2Y xtra) 70,000
- $1300 6Y (factory 3Y/36K + 3Y xtra) 80,000
- $1500 7Y (factory 3Y/36K + 4Y xtra) 100,000

for 2.5GT 5A with $100 deductible.

Personally I think this is a rip off for normal car like Camry, Accord, Altima etc.; however, I don't know if there is any difference for performance engine with Turbo. Is Turbo easily broke? Does it require special care to make it last long? What is the life time of a turbo given a mix driving city and highway?

Any additional comments and insight thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
