With all the dealers now doing CPO type stuff, when selling a used car of these values, the first thing buyers ask if is it has a CPO type warranty. You gotta stay competative with what the dealers are offering the used car buyer.

When selling my E46 BMW before getting the Z, the extended warranty cars always got the better movement on the for sale boards...and since the Nissan warranty is transferable, I opted to get it....with the idea of having the car that much more attractive to a new buyer....covered for full 7 years and 100k miles.
I'm selling my altima privately when i get my Z. The extended warranty is not transferable to the new buyer, you merely get the unused portion back. given this, i dont see why having a non transferable extended warranty would make the future sale of your vehicle any more attractive for a buyer. Unless of course you have some different warranty than i am referring to?
