I would personally go with the GMPP.
Its basically just carrying the warranty over. You are gauranteed GM parts etc....And the price is probably not that much different.
And I do believe you may be be able to get it for 5 years for a bit more cash.
Im surprised that a Cadillac Dealer isnt offering you the GMPP.
That right away would make me go Hmmmmmm????
Read the fine print on the certified. Chances are you would not get a rental car if your vehicle is in over night. Among other things that are not covered. Its preety smooth the way they word those after market warranties.
As to wether or not it is needed really depends on the individual.
If you feel you can do the work yourself, if you have the skill and the time, if you can afford to miss work because of no vehicle if it takes longer than expected to repair, etc.....than a warranty is not required.
But if you prefer to have others do the work, and feel the cost of a warranty sets you at ease "in case" something happens, (safety blanket), and wont bother you if you never use it.
Then by all means get the warranty.
I dont know if youve had any major to even small problems with your car as of so far. If you havent then the gods have been good to you.
But on that note its preety well gauranteed that something will happen at the most inopportune time.
You will probably need a mount, rod, joint, bushing, sensor, or something somewhere before the year 2010.
Nothing lasts forever.
