I am fairly new owner myself. I primarily owned Japanese cars before which required little maintenance. I had a '96 9000cse for a year and had heater core and other climate control problems to the tune of over $1000. I did not have a warranty. The car had other issues so I ended up trading it in at the same place for a '99 9-5SE 5spd in May. I had to have the clutch slave cylinder replaced in July for $760. If you consider a turbo at $1200 minimum, SID, or DI Cassette, then you may want to get the warranty. These cars are not designed for the do-it-yourselfer.
I have always bought used cars and never got a warranty until this car. Get the highest coverage plan or don't bother. It is fun to drive though. I am still considering the cost of uniqeness and upkeep against the reliability of an Acura.
