35K...isnt the base warranty 4 years 50K miles, 80K KM? Given that you did not haggle for the extra period during purchase...I would not let them hose me for the extra couple years. FYI, I buy demo up to 2 year old vehicles...and make sure I get the 6year/160K certified warranty...always included in the deal....and after having done a fair bit of comparison shopping. Our newest vehicle in the family is a 2015 X3...it was a demo purchased Nov 15 (first registered in Sep 15)...it was BMW warranty till 2021...we saved 10K vice new...and have the extra 2 year warranty sacrificing a few km for that. Looking at certified vehicles now....I note that BMW dealers are getting way less generous and really trying to squeeze buyers on the extra warranty. To that end, in the future and if need be, I will widen my search. Looking at non BMW dealers also for vehicles up to two years old. I would not have done that in the last 10 years or so...
