Jeff,
 
I am curious about the Costco deal. My husband and I are interested in leasing a Tiguan. We are looking at the SEL. We live in Florida and are Costco members. We have been to two dealerships and are in the process of negotiating. How do we get the Costco deal? Do we tell the dealership that we are members or do we have to go through Costco? I am so happy to hear about this deal. Do you like the car? We are deciding between the beige or black leather interior. Is the beige easy to keep clean?
Thank you.

Ilene,
 
Yes, contact Costco and they will tell you which dealer works with Costco. The dealer must give you 300 dollars over invoice. If they don't Costco wants to know because they have a synergistic relationship. Beige is better in my opinion, I like two tone. Plus, black shows grey scuffs and the beige hides dirt better believe it or not. Plus, the beige comes with black carpet, nice for foot traffic. I decided on White/Gold paint.

Jeffery,
 
Thank you for the information. I asked the dealership about Costco and they said they would give me the deal. The only issue is finding a car. There is one available with a navigation system, which I don't know that I need. It adds about $2,000. to the vehicle. Do you have the navigation system? If so, do you like it? I like either the candy white or the white gold with the beige interior. How is the gas mileage? They say it gets 18 in the city and 24 on the highway. I appreciate your help.

Jeffrey,
 
I just emailed Costco and received local dealer info. I usually deal with fleet dealers from my credit union. Do you have any advice for dealing with dealers associated with Costco's program as far as getting the lowest price over invoice and no extra fees? With fleet guys, you pay no dealer costs because they get loan kickbacks...I don't want anything to do with Capital One and that is costco's loan service. Any advice regarding purchasing and financing is greatly appreciated! I want to purchase a blue SEL fully loaded..like $38, MSRP

Jeff,
 
QUESTIONS: What was your OTD cost after tax, tag, title, blah, blah, blah...? Did the internet guy save you dealer fees, like fleet guys say they do? Did you get the 4.94% Costco financing rate?

From what I heard the all around gas mileage in a mixed loop was 22-23mpg. Navigation may not be right for you, but I find it helpful even around where I live to get me on the freeway quick.
Prevent ending up in neighborhoods you would rather avoid, safety. Plus, if you get the NAVI you also get a back-up camera. Are you getting the panorama roof as well? I'm getting the white/gold, looks more sophisticated IMO. Just get everything, leaves nothing to be desired.

Hi Gina,
 
 see my previous post on the breakdown in price. Costco deal is 300 over invoice. Plus I received invoice on all options. If you can beat that price on this vehicle's first year let me know. I've ordered mine and am impatiently waiting. No SEL's in the Bay Area, just S and SE's.

Jeff,
 
Thank you for the information, the back up camera is very useful, I agree. I was just trying to get one without navigation to save some money. I am getting the panorama roof as well. That is a very nice option and makes the interior feel wide open. I like both the white gold and candy white. Have you seen them in both colors in person?
When will you get your vehicle?

Hi, Jeff,
 
Did read your post on price breakdown but you mentioned that the internet guy added a $400 fee for tint that should have been included. Did you get that worked out? Was your OTD cost 35? Any tips for internet orders?
 
Thanks a bunch!

My vehicle is on order and I will not get it until end of October The only option I have unless I want an SE, so I have to wait. Besides my X3 lease expires December 13th. No problem there...
