Don't mistake "National" Warranty Corporation (NWC) with "National" Auto Care (NAC), NWC does not cover AMG.

This is the reply i got back when I email NWC about EW.

Thank you for your inquiry. I would normally refer you back to a dealership as we do not market directly to consumers, however the AMG model is not eligible for coverage under our plan.

You might try contacting warrantydirect.com

Have a great day !

Here's one I got about four months ago.

NAC Pinnacle
4 year/62k miles
$100 deductible
$4,200

NAC prices this as "new car" which is why it expires at 100k on the odometer. As opposed to 100k additional miles. I spoke with NAC about that and they said that because my car had under 40k miles they priced it that way. Which also helped with pricing, allegedly. It would have been more otherwise.

I've already used $2,500 in warranty coverage... not bad!

I talked to the FO of MB of Lynnwood and she quoted me $3500 for 3/36K mile, with zero deductible, she also told me "National" is the only warranty company that cover AMG. I'm not sure which "National" she is talking about. I think the markup is alot so I try to call the warranty co directly to see if they would sell me the EW for less.

Do you have a contact at NAC, and do they sell directly to us? Let me know your deal sounds great.

NWC - this is for an '05 with under 60k miles; prices go up 8% in 2 weeks though...

48mo/60k miles
$3,364

gotta remember, each quote will be different due to different years/models, etc...

I went through a member on this site:
MB AUTO RACING
He was incredibly knowledgeable about the E55 cars, too.

I didn't even know about Becks Imports, but he has a good rep on here.

Toadster can you share how you got that quote? I have an 05 with 12k miles and want to compare the NWC price my local dealers are quoting with a more direct quote if possible.

had a PPI done by the dealer, and asked to talk to their finance guy who offered me the warranty...

may be a 'if you use our service' kinda deal...

You got the regular glossy booklet with your card after a month or so, right? I wonder why yours is called Pinnacle and mine is called Platinum?

Here's my app that the CU sent in.

I didn't go through my CU. Maybe it is a "branded" version? Dunno.

The Pinnacle is their best product. It is an exclusionary warranty, which basically means that everything is covered unless it is specifically excluded on the policy. As I understand it, it covers everything except wear and tear items.

Here's NAC's page on their products (no mention of Platinum).

That said, if yours is a Pinnacle with just a different name... you got the deal of a lifetime!

Yeah, my CU told me it is an exclusionary policy.

Awesome!

A friendly suggestion... call NAC tomorrow. They are very friendly and will answer your question about what the difference is between Pinnacle and Platinum, if any.

I've spoken with them before about why my warranty expired at 100k miles instead of 100k + 38k on the odometer.
