I too have just purchased an extended warranty from warranty-gold. The extended warranty does NOT cover exterior or interior trim, or the clutch assembly, but no other extended warranty does either. These are wear & tear items, subject to how you maintain your car and how you drive.
What it DOES cover is electronics, the A/C, alternator, etc. - all of which are VERY expensive to replace. Replacing the A/C compressor is $700-$900 and the SID is also pricey. Many of the GM OEM parts (which are prone to early failure) will be covered, and that's why I got an exteneded warranty.
Maybe I won't need it, but maybe I will... who knows. All I know is that my car has been back to the dealer a lot, and over 1/2 the trips were for items covered by the warranty-gold warranty.
Just my 2 cents.
