How many miles on your C32???

Please post your mileage year and major problems or issues. I would like to get an idea of what to look forward too. I'm debating on purchasing the extended warranty before my year is up. what do you guys thinks?

considering that this car is only out for max 2.5 yrs

unless you're crazy, there's no way there would be a car with 100K C32 out there!

I saw a '01 S500 on ebay with 80,000 miles on it ...pretty close to 100k miles.
now that's some serious driving!

My 1999 E55 has 82k miles and I haven't had any major problems

All repairs under warranty:

Driver side rear window motor (regulator) replaced
Both engine mounts replaced since driver side broke
Front end bushings replaces
Chamber alignment
Pre cats and cats replaced

As for the engine it runs really good and strong it seems to be either as fast or 1 tenth slower than 40k miles ago at the 1/4 mile track.

I am approaching 34K and have had no serious problems. Though, to be honest, there have been a lot of minor issues that combine equal one or maybe two serious problems. I currently have the exteneded warranty till 100k. I plan on keeping my car for a while and therefore think it was a good investment. You never know?
60K comes around, you floor the gas pedal and boom! You through a rod and your engine needs replacing.
"Sir, your engine is on the way from Germany" (if you have the warranty of course)
You never now!

Any options for people who did not opt for the warranty extension when buying the car?

The option is to pay for the repairs yourself

BTW, I do have extended warranty on my car to 100k miles.
