Hi all. First post on reddit and it’s regarding my first ever Audi. About to pull the trigger tomorrow. It’s a 2016 RS7 CPO with 2 years of warranty left (1 new, 1 CPO). They quoted me for $3k for 1 additional year or $5500 for two additional years. Anyone with experience with Audi or even RS7 think that is worth it?
Thanks!

Newer Audi’s are definitely waaay more reliable than anything they made pre-2010, but if the $5500 isn’t a big deal then I would get the extended simply for the peace of mind knowing you’re covered for longer.
3-4 essentially worry free years just incase something goes wrong.
It's not worth it at that price.
5.5k should get you 4 years not 2.
Haggle.
For a car like that? I'd get it, but not for that price, personally. If you want, hit up fd-warrantyDOTcom and get a price quote for extended warranty.
The car has to be under the original warranty with at least 1 year left, and 10k miles under limit to qualify. They're legit.
Just an FYI, actual cost of the 1 year warranty is $1.5K, by charging $3k (which is common), they're bending you over a bit more as pure profit.
Troy at fdwarranty will hook you up and you can use his quote to counter the dealership. He'll probably come in at around $1600 for 1 year, and $5500 for 4 years. It's the same Exact factory extended warranty. He has all of the info on his site.
Look up the site on audizine and Audi World, it's legit.
I know that buying a RS7 is already big bucks, and $5.5k is nothing in comparison, but it never hurts to save a few bucks when you can! Best of luck.
No but Audi Care was worth it.
$5k seems expensive, either way make sure to read the fine print and know what’s included and what’s not.
Thanks everyone for the responses. I think I’m gonna pass for that price. I might try to get two years for $3000 but if they won’t bargain with me I’m going to press my luck on my remaining two years. Also may invest in Audi care. Thanks again!
Yes.
Do it! I got my RS7 CPO with extended warranty and prepaid 3 years of Audicare. I haven't had a single issue and aside from brakes and tires everything is covered. This was my first Audi as well and it's been the best experience with a car and dealer I've ever had.
