As to my warranty question, yeah, I will get one. But which one? The Zurich policy I was offered by the NJ dealer was especially pricey ($1978!) and as my son will be in Florida, I called several Nissan dealers/service centers there and none had heard of "Zurich," though two said they'd honor it. One service manager suggested I get a Nissan extended warranty (less pricey) to guarantee Nissan parts and so service is available anywhere there's a Nissan dealer. Any thoughts?

RCK, I just wanted to note that you can always wait to acquire extended warranty before the regular warranty expires. That way, you would definitely see based on repair history if you even need to spend extra money on extended warranty. Furthermore, there is no guarantee that 2 or 3 years down the road, your child wouldn't want to move on to another car. You wouldnt get top $$ and the same ROI when reselling the car because of extended warranty.

When buying my other Nissan (Nissan whore here), the salesman was pushing hard for the extended warranty purchase ($4000) which I declined given that I could purchase it anytime up to the day the manufacturer warranty expires. it is going on 4 years 65k miles and no issues (knock on wood).
