Extending MB CPO Warranty
I have an SL550 that is currently under the MB CPO Warranty. There is a few months left on it. In Florida, by law, a dealer can not negotiate the price of a CPO Warranty. Florida is the ONLY state that classifies these as insurance contracts and therefore are regulated by the state. Does anyone know of a Mercedes dealer in any other state that sells discounted MB warranties? I would rather stick with the MB warranty instead of an 'after market' plan. Greatly appreciate any help, information, recommendations, etc. that is available. Thanks

Jeff Jackson at Tafel Motors in Louisville was good to deal with and very close on price: jjackson@tafelmotors.com
I am going on memory here but I seem to recall some mentioning the warranty had to be purchased within a month of your purchasing the car. Could have been 'pressure' or I may be remembering incorrectly. I believe the unused portion of the warranty will be refunded...which I considered a great selling point. Mark
