Lexus Platinum Warranty Question

[lexs400]

I would like to know if the extended warranty by lexus can be purchased if the car was bought from a private party and not the dealer?

I was told by one dealership that in order to buy it the car has to be bought from the dealer. This was not the case till last year.

any input will be appreciated and also any contact number for a dealership that will sell me the warranty.

According to the Lexus website (http://www.lexus.com/models/warranty_vehic...comparison.html), it looks like you can only purchase the Platinum extended warranty with a new vehical purchase. However, you should be able to purchase the Gold "Extended Service Coverage"

I think the car might need to be inspected & service records accounted for first. Just in case oil changes were neglected as an example then the owner can pay let's say $1,200 for a 'Lexus' extended warranty to get a new $4,000+ engine out of the deal. :) Lexus also has to protect themselves.
