How will GL450 be off Warranty?

I have a chance to buy a GL450 that's almost two years old, so I I'll have 2 years of factory warranty. I usually keep my cars 4-5 years. How do you think this car will be? Is it something I should purchase an extended warranty or will it be fine?

I personally would buy the extended warranty. I have 2000 miles on my GL and it has been in the shop 3 times for warranty related issues.

Here is also the link to another thread where everyone is listing all their problems with the GL450

GL! Problems aside, it is a great car and I wouldn't trade it for any other.

Warranty really is for peace of mind since there is no way to predict what issues you may face. It's a matter of how much your peace of mind is worth you.

I agree with Nish...a warranty is like any other insurance policy. You pay for something you hope you never have to use.

I definitely agree with the comments above...if there is some type of warranty available (especially if it can be certified from a dealer) I would definitely buy it for peace of mind...good luck on your purchase, the GL is a phenominal vehicle.
