Expected repair cost/value of extended warrantee

I know this has been debating much with much opinion but no data. It is hard to really know the true costs. If owners can submit what their costs per year for repairs, maintenance, tire and brakes as separate amounts. I suggest that tires and brakes are separate from repairs as they are essentially consumables and are driving style and mileage dependent. One could argue the same for clutches but think it is more accurate to include in the repair category.

For example: 2009 Vantage

1st year, no known cost, bought car at 3rd year
2nd year, no known cost, bought car at 3rd year
3rd year, 0 repairs, $1,400 maintenance, 0 for tire and brakes

I would be willing to collect the data by age of car, and at least have some real data. I would suggest that Vantage cost be one category, and DB9 and DBS as the other. I am making assumption the cost for DBS except brakes should be similar. Thoughts?
