Post Sale Add-on/optional Services?

[eagle-7]

Hi,

While sitting with the finance guy, he offered a number of optional services such as:

* Lexus Care Vehicle Service Agreement

- 6yrs/70Kmiles = $1700

- 7yrs/75K miles = $2100

- 5yrs/100K miles = $2000

- 6yrs/100K miles = 2100

- 7yrs/100K miles = $2400

* Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP Insurance); $540

* Paint Protection Film (3M Scotchguard film); $995

* Appearance Protection; $485

* Lo-jack; $695

* Zero Dents (dent, scratch, plus wheel repair)

>Dings/Dents only

- 3 yrs = $390

- 4 yrs = $450

- 5 yrs = $550

>Wheel scrapes, small paint chips/scratches

- Add $200 to any term

* Diamond-Fusion Windshield Protection; $680

Do you recommend any of the above? The Service agreement sounds only since it is $0 deductible and 100% refundable if not used. The Zero Dents program sounds interesting also.

Would appreciate your thoughts please.

Thanks,

I can speak to the Paint Protection film item. The product itself is a must if you want to keep the paint in shape. There is a better product out there than what is being offered though. Likely by checking around your area you can find a Venture Shield installer, and I wouldn't be surprised if the cost is reduced. You will also get a lifetime guarantee that I am not sure you will get with the original option you've been given.

PM me and I can get you pointed in the right direction.

Thanks for the tip on Venture Shield.

I went to their website venturetape.com, ventureshield.com, & the US website at invisiblepatterns.com.

I'm going to pursue this more.

Thanks again.
