When I called the jeep dealer (Countywide) in December he told me that the costco price was $500 under invoice. I immediately went down to the dealer and he showed me the Costco price sheet, which showed the 2007 Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon at $500 under invoice.

He had one on the lot, an X w/o 4wd, but I wanted a Rubicon, deep green to match my 51 Willy M38 Army jeep. He told me that I can order the jeep and that the price would still be $500 under invoice when the jeep is delivered. He also said that this pricing was effective from 10/13/06 to 1/11/07. I ordered the jeep on December 15th, 2006 so I am eligible for this costco price.

I called another jeep dealer in So Calif. (Irvine) just to check and there price was $800 over invoice. A $1300 dollar difference.

I then called Costco auto program and they verified that my dealer, (Countywide) was selling the Rubicon at $500 under invoice and that the other dealer (Irvine) was in fact $800 over invoice. So I think each dealer will set the costco pricing depending on what they think is a fair deal to them and costco members.

The costco auto program person pretty much said that the $500 under invoice deal I have at Countywide will be honored when the jeep gets delivered.
From what I have been reading, this should be a good deal.

Jeep is still in BG status as of this week.
