i forgot how much i got mine for but i know the amg warranty is a little more than the non-amg's and the finance guy found that out after we signed all the papers, so we redid everything with a little discount of i think around $300..

I haven't tried them but others claim they saved a ton.

Try www.autowarranties.com for your extended warranty. It is untrue that third parties will not deal with AMG cars. I purchased an extended warranty for my '02 E55 for a good price. Because I am still in factory warranty period, I cannot vouch first hand about their performance. It will be several years before I get the opportunity to do so. I've heard positive feedback from owners from the Roadfly (BMW) forum regarding this company.

As usual, I have no affliation of any kind with this company and please do your own due diligence.

Many of the original C32 owners called Lisa at a MB dealership in Chico, CA and got very special rates on the "real" MB extended warranty. The price of the MB extended is somewhat negotiable.
BTW your local dealership can match if her service is less than perfect. (You just need her price to start with).
