ASC Warranty ?

First of all, is this company any good?

The dealer that has the car that I am looking at (09 P030 E63 w/32k mi) quoted me a price of $1800 for 3/36 "Drivetrain Plus", which sounds like it cover the hard lubricated parts of the car but almost no electronics, and then the 4/48 "Factory Type Coverage" for $4460. I don't know if these are good prices or not.

I did try a search on iterations of ASC Warranty and didn't come up with too much relevant stuff, so I thought I'd ask.

Any thoughts?

I did see that, it is over a year old. A lot can change in a company in a year.

If it covers an AMG, it is good. NAC used to cover AMG, but not anymore and I got a great deal on mine.

If they "cover" AMG's but never pay out, then it is a horrible deal at whatever price.

If your car is stock and maintained, they wouldn't have a reason to deny a claim. If they did, it would constitute "Bad Faith" and those lawsuits are very costly.

Yes, but chances are that if the hyper expensive to repair German car is broken, the amount of money I have would be tied up in repairing the car and unavailable for hiring a lawyer. They also might have enough loopholes built into the legalese that gets them out of it.

Which is why I have been looking for someone with recent experience with this company.
