A few questions. 1) Should I purchase an extended warranty? I know there is usually a resounding "no" on this. But car is near end of basic 3 year manufacturer coverage because of car's age, not miles. I know "drive train" warranty is still in force up to 5 years, but extended warranty seems to cover more issues. And my son lives in Florida, we live in Brooklyn. This is his 1st car. Don't trust mechanics dealing with a young driver.

2) No fog lights on the 370Z?

3) Noticed the engine temperature issue on this forum but drove in stop and go for 45 minutes in 85 degrees yesterday and the temp was solid and cool. Is there something else I should be looking for?
I wouldn't worry about an extended warranty, personally. There haven't been major defects on the car, so I'm not sure it would be worth it.

No, we don't have any fog lights, but our high beams are literally two small suns attached to the front of the car.

And oil temperature isn't an issue unless you are driving fairly hard or driving "spirited" in exceptionally hot weather. I've almost had my car for two years now and I've never had an issue.
