I owe far less than the cars worth but that's not really important. The car now has 38k on it and every time i go WOT, a little voice in my head says "hey bro what if you blow your motor" (ya the d-bag voice in my head says bro....but i do drive a z).
Here's my question.... Any suggestions for a warranty that would give me peace of mind. Or should i just cross my fingers for another 2 years till i trade up? I'm not hard on the motor at all WOT maybe 3-5 times a week.

figure out how much it might cost to do the repairs. then set aside some cash every time you get your paycheck and save it.
i do this too. i can rebuy my Z a few times over cash if something happened to her. this takes off a lot of the headache. insurance (not talking car insurance) and monetary buffer is a good thing to have. if your car ends up not having issues, you can use that fund to buy your next car.
