End of warranty coming up what to do?

2019 i8 coupe coming to end of warranty in March.

I think I may have gotten an additional 1 year drivetrain warranty otherwise the rest of the warranty will end soon

I was thinking to get some sort of inspection not sure if I should trust BMW or an indy shop and/or what I should ask them to inspect

Also any suggestions for extended warranties in Canada would be appreciated

I ended up paying 200$ for a full inspection with the dealer (normally 350$ but it was on promotion)

Warranty for just additional time till:
March 2024 Warranty Ends
March 2025 3635$
March 2026 5120$
March 2027 6590$

Every prices are before taxes in CAD.

any opinions?

Getting my money's worth. They found something wrong with the flaps in the front that cool the car at certain speeds. 2000$ repair apparently

I ended up buying the 7 year 75,000 mile extended warranty. Since i bought it i am sure the car will have no issues, but a $1.5k a year for an extended warranty "piece of mind" is not terrible or that is how i justified it.
