I recently purchased this 2002 LS430. It is in excellent condition. Everything works fine.

A warranty is nearly $2000. The warranty requires proof of regularly scheduled maintenance and $100 deductibles for each occurance.

In your opinion. is $2000 a risk worth taking? It seems to me that the quality in Lexus would rarely require repairs if maintenance was performed as scheduled.
