Service plans for new 2009 Subaru Forester worth it?

The saleswoman at the dealership is urging me to go with warranty extension, platinum shield protection and vehicle protection. My question is, is it beneficial to go with these protections or are they more of a money grab? I live in Winnipeg, Manitoba so we have quite wicked winters. If anyone could provide feedback on these plans it would be greatly appreciated! I should (as long as all works out) have my new Forester on Saturday! Very excited to own such a great vehicle!!

I was talked into a paint protect ant once and was a total waste of money. Now they try so hard to get me to buy it but I never fall for it. As far as an extended warranty, It may be a good idea if you can afford it. If the car seems to be in really good shape at the time the factory warranty is about to expire, you can cancel and get a refund for the extended warranty. Or you could do it the other way around and buy the extended warranty later on down the road if it seems like you are having a lot of work done. I have had 2 Subaru's before my current one, all heavily modified and have never taken any of them in for any warranty work. I think the car will be fine.
