That color is FIRE :fire: What trim is that?

Supersonic red! It absolutely pops in person. Makes me wanna get into car photography tbh :joy:

Beautiful ride! I’d spend the $1572 just for peace of mind, tbh. Not a huge amount for full coverage.

Thanks! And yeah, I keep reading about pano roof repairs and it’s making me lean toward it. I actually wanna use the roof lol

Is that extra warranty transferable? That could help when selling. Also how much did you get for your Tesla?

Good point—I’ll ask if it’s transferable. I got $22,750 for my 2018 Model 3 with under 15k miles. Barely drove it over the years tbh.

Not here for the warranty convo, just here to say your Camry is a straight up stunner :heart_eyes:

Is the warranty you got from Toyota or third-party?

Directly from Toyota.

Personally I’d invest that $1.5k instead. Can make it work harder for me lol

Haha same! Big ETF fan here. But yeah I gotta run some numbers and weigh the options.

Skip the extended warranty. Most people ditch their car within 3 years anyway. Just stash the cash in savings and use it if something ever actually breaks.

I hear you—mainly just stressed about tech stuff and that giant glass roof. Everything else I could probably ignore if it broke :joy:

With that roof, yeah I’d get the warranty. Repairs on those things ain’t cheap :grimacing:
