This is the Subaru Crosstrek we purchased.

Classic Subaru and C. J. Manship (our Classic Subaru representative,) combined with the Costco Auto Buying Program provided us with a really nice car purchase experience. We got the exact car we wanted for a good price. Highly recommend using the Costco Auto Buying Program, Classic Subaru and C. J. Manship.

I've used the CostCo Auto Program now for 4 purchases of new cars while each time also reaching out to other "programs". Costco is by far and away THE BEST program I've experienced based upon Price, Dealer Service and Transactional ease and value. They have it all figured out and I really appreciate what it means to me as a Costco member and the tremendous supplemental membership value it is.

The pricing options are clearly explained and what used to take hours at a dealership haggling over cost made it easier to make a decision.

Found what amounted to be a great deal with a very service oriented salesman and dealership.

It was the easiest experience! Buying a car is typically painful. We saved just over $2k on a brand new car and couldn't be happier!!

This is a great program. Used it at my Subaru dealer and the 15% discount really helped towards the cost of my repairs.

BEST CAR BUYING EXPERIENCE especially with how dealerships are these days for just having a costco membership.

Got my APR software installed, fast and easy to work with. Dealer deleted the software so I went…read moreback for the second time and they did the reinstall for a very small fee. Did it while I wait. Was in and out less than an hour. They seem like honest people which is rare for mechanic shop

Two disappointing experiences with the owner, Michael. Customer service is clearly not a priority…read more I've been a Pure Motorsport customer for approximately 4+ years, and unfortunately, this is the second consecutive visit where I've been treated poorly by the owner, Michael. During my previous visit for an oil change, the quoted price changed from approximately $300 to $445, then $395. When I simply asked for clarification, Michael became defensive, suggested I take my R8 to Discount Tire or another shop, and began tossing paperwork across the reception counter toward me. I contacted Pure afterward about the experience rather than immediately posting a negative review. Fast-forward to October 6, 2026. I dropped off my R8 for its 40k-mile service, originally estimated to take 2-3 days. I acknowledge arriving approximately 90 minutes late. Pure called that afternoon to explain the car likely wouldn't be completed before the weekend and offered to let me pick it up or leave it. I chose to leave it and was told it should be ready Monday, October 12. Friday came, and I called to check. Sam confirmed Monday was still expected. Monday arrived, and again, no call from Pure. When I called, I was told another day or two was needed because other customers' vehicles were taking longer than expected. Thursday came with still no updates, so I called again. My R8 was finally completed Friday, October 16, nine business days after drop-off. Between the initial call and the completion call, every update required me to contact Pure. When I politely raised concerns about the delays and lack of communication, Michael placed the entire blame on my late arrival, despite his staff previously explaining that other jobs had caused scheduling delays. My issue wasn't simply how long the service took, but the complete lack of proactive communication. Additionally, Sam identified a possible oil pump leak and promised photos and a repair estimate. Neither was emailed as promised. I only received the estimate when I picked up the vehicle, without the requested photos. When I attempted to discuss these concerns in person, Michael repeatedly spoke over me and once again suggested I take my business elsewhere. This was almost identical to my previous experience with him. Pure's prices are competitive, but other qualified shops in San Diego offer similar pricing. After two experiences like this, I would rather take my R8 somewhere that values its customers and can handle reasonable questions without becoming defensive. It's disappointing that the owner himself has been the biggest reason and pattern of behavior that I've lost confidence in this business.
