06 Lexus IS250 AUTOMATIC premium package and 18inch wheels for $31,123 im wondering if costco can beat that.
 
Goto any car dealer and you can get "costco" pricing. For Subaru it was 300-500 over invoice. If its a hot model (like the IS you're after), its not a bad deal at all.

Automatic? Pvssy😉😛
 
We could've done the same deal (without Costco) when we bought our car through the Costco program last month. Dealing with the dealer wasn't any easier in my case. The dealer is now in hot water with Costco over farking up a deal with a Costco customer. The best part was the Costco financing. Called them up, they overnighted me a check.
 
we tried to go with the costco auto program when we bought our murano a month ago...with the costco program it was $500 over invoice. when i looked at edmunds and see that the TMV was about 1000 over, i thought it was pretty good deal. then i started emailing dealers and end up buying it from a different dealer at about 500 below invoice...moral of the story is costco may not always get you the lowest price and it pays to shop around. and shopping around via email is not much hassle at all.

I just visited the costco website. Apparently they have gas stations too. I have seen cars before but never really bothered looking at them.

Yeah, this is similar to the experience that I had, except that offer I got was some joker from a local dealership offering me a car for MSRP. I thought that Costco would work with fleet sales or something, but they just hooked up with a local dealer and it took me a while to get the guy to stop calling me.

I ended up sending out emails to dealers and getting a much better price on my own.
 
If you're in a credit union check them for good car deals.

I've checked Costco for pricing on car insurance and on travel, (but not for cars) and found Costco prices high.

The Costco by me always has cars on display, and recently, large boats too out in the parking lot. Big ones.
