I just noticed that the F-Pace has been added to the list of vehicles in Costco's auto buying program. The process is that you specify what you want to Costco, they put you in touch with a dealer, and the dealer has a special price list for the program.

I already have my deal, but anyone still shopping might want to check it out - especially if all they're hearing is MSRP.

 

Hi
Thanks for the information. My car was ordered 2 months ago, and my sales guy was forthright in telling me about the "Costco" discount, and that he would be applying it as my core deal. He knew this was coming down. Great share, and this is what people need to hear! Good for Costco, Jaguar, and us the customers!
Appreciate it!

 

Interesting that your dealer was so forthcoming. Good for them (and you).

By contrast, when I asked my closest dealer back in April, they claimed that JLR was no longer participating in buyer programs. Meanwhile, the 2017 F-Type was already on the list, and now the new models have been added. They were firmly in the MSRP camp, as well. Needless to say, my order is not with them.

 

Is this Costco auto buying program legit?

 

We haven't heard yet what the discount is, or which dealers are participating, but the program is huge (as is everything at Costco). Just ask AmEx, whose stock is down 20% in the last year, after losing their exclusive credit card deal.

 

It sounds like COSTCO could be a great equalizer. Don't know if the interest in the F-Pace is the reason, but I stopped in to the local Jag dealer (er-a- I mean "retailer" or "store" as some now to prefer to call it), looking for some literature. Found it and had it in hand as one of the sales personnel walked by. I asked him if the black one out front was the only one around since I didn't feel like checking out a black car in the 99 degree sunny heat. "Yeah, that's it" he said to me. With the attitude of "what a dumb question" written all over his face. The experience was a bit like the arrogance one gets in a BMW or Mercedes dealer. I've been know to go hundreds of miles for the right deal, so local isn't all that necessary. But, I do believe in buying local. They just need to help me out, a bit.


Luck with the purchase. I haven't driven one yet but look forward to it on my next jaunt down to Florida.

 

No matter what zip code I put in, the website always tells me that there is no dealer found. I see that there is $3500 - $4000 difference between invoice and MSRP. So is CostCo offering invoice pricing or lower or higher?

How about those who have the pricing just tell what it is as it would be the same for everyone right?

 

There is another option to check out, although I'm not totally familiar with how it works, and that's the AAA. Apparently they have an auto purchase program, as well. A friend of mine used them to find a Hyundai Genesis for his wife. The dealers in and around Mooresville, NC where he lives were standing firm in their pricing. AAA originally told him they couldn't help as their purchase program didn't include Hyundai, but they found a way to obtain one for him anyway. It was significantly less expensive, and -- get this! They delivered it to him and took away his trade. Pretty sweet.

 

Thanks for this info. Good to know.

 

I try to find info on the Costco website. Nothing on that Jaguar discount. Somebody find details? Is it available in Canada. There is no discount, fidelity rebate at jag on the F pace in Canada for the moment

Just checked in So Cal, and no participating dealer nearby, lol. I'm in Carlsbad and the Jag dealer is approx .2 from the Costco. . .

 

Yes!

 

Order from a participating dealer who is wiling to do this on line! I did, and am 90% happy with the F-Pace experience (to date, not in my hands yet), but 100% on the other 4 cars I bought this way.

Good Luck! BTW, the dealer near you has to service it, so not an issue on service side.

 

The closest Jag dealer to me in Texas is Ft Myers Florida but so far the are very helpful and willing to work with me.

 

If you didn't drive, you could start a car ferry service.

 

What are the prices like? Why is no one divulging this :-)

 

Not sure why not? Retail, minus $1750.00 for discount, minus 800.00 (up to for financing through Jag, which is Chase @1.9% for 66 months). That is the deal. However on the $800.00 i think that was an early on deal, along with a small give back for the Navigation.

Good Luck!

 

I checked the site and, at least for our local COSTCO, the Jaguar selection menu only lists F-Type, XJ and XF. There is no F-Pace listed. My guess is that when an agreement is made with a dealer, they determine what they want to make available through the program.

I can recommend Costco auto program; bought my 2012 Honda CRV at $700 over invoice with good dealer experience!

Also bought my 2007 XK Coupe from Nashville Jaguar dealer online (Jag certified) with no problems including free shipping to Seattle...........no surprises at all !

I should also add my local dealer (Tacoma Jaguar) is first class and always gives great support to our local Jaguar Club.................

Cheers, Adrian

 

Yo Adrian.....(like you haven't heard that before! :-) ). It is awesome always when a dealer is like you state. Thanks for sharing.
