Depends. If you're modifying your car then no. If you're keeping it stock past the duration of your standard manufacturers warranty then possibly.

Depends on who is offering it. The genuine Honda warranty is good if you keep it below 1400 and don't mod. I'd run from most other warranties like the plague. Oh, and as I have posted a dozen times, don't buy a warranty if you can't/won't fight for your rights.

What do you mean below 1400?

I have a 2007, and it isn't driven in the winter. I expect to put about 6000 miles per year on it. The only mod I am contemplating is a K&N AirCharger intake. I can get the Honda Care 7 year/80,000 mile zero deductible warranty for $710. The list of what is covered is very extensive. Normal wear and tear items like exhaust, shocks, etc. are not covered. I'm thinking that one repair like a failed differential would pay for it, and if I didn't keep the car that long it might help resale (it is transferrable.) Opinions?

If you keep it absolutely stock, go for it. Otherwise, there are MANY horror stories of people on this forum getting screwed because of the dumbest crap possible. Its honestly not worth the hassle if you have anything more then an aftermarket oil filter

How do you get quotes for honda care. I tried to look it up online but all the honda financial website would give me are the plan coverages.
