Chor, unless BMWMutha has changed the rules,
Extended Warranty and Extended Maintenance
both qualify for purchase before the current/existing
warr/maint agreement expires per the 5yr/50Kmiles
oem coverage ends.

When Ext Maint. first came out, the fine print said
the orig Maint coverage had to be in effect with
"30 days remaining"...that was a non-issue when
I got mine.

With best info available, neither has to be puchased
when you take delivery. It's akin to buying a CC or
Best Buy ext warr. on some prod., when you buy the
new A/V stuff that has a 2 year warr, the same day...
it's a nice gross margin item for the Stlr. But, one can
buy that warr later and also from someone else.

Now, BMW could can that program between now
and then, but who knows...tell your car sales punque
to kiss off.
GL,mD

Edit: I searched the BMW NA site, aka the "Marketing driven
Vagueness Center", lol and they pitch both extending
the Warr and the Maint program at the time of purchase;
what a surprise. I still believe they are currently available
for any BMW with current exisitng oem Warr and Maint intact,
as of my typing...all that could be defunct 4 years from now.
I'd pass and wait. And, any Stlr can/will sell this to you;
you don't have to buy it from selling dlr. Shop around.
