Way back when I had a 91' Honda Civic Hatchback I did purchase a extended warranty. It paid off because I had to have my air conditioner condenser replaced after only 2 yrs then 1 week before the extended warranty expired my air conditioner evaporator had to be replaced. Big bucks when it comes to paying for A/C repairs. My next car was a Scion XA which I didn't buy a extended warranty. I did not have issues with that car. I did buy one for my FRS because of the fuel pump issues which I don't know if they have been resolved or not. Anyway for me it's peace of mind because I tend to have shitty luck at times. Just my opinion on the extended warranty topic!
