Costco gas for 991?

Just got a 2012 991s. Trying to figure out what gas to put into my new baby. Is Costco OK? Any input appreciated. Thanks.

Is it any cheaper? I assume the important bit is buying the highest octane possible which in my state is 93. Did not know they sold gas.

I've been filling my 991 at Costco for the past 14 months with no issue. Its on the way to work and one of two stations that is open early enough. Price is pretty good to boot!

The thought of waiting in line or the cluster at my local Costco to save a few cents per gallon is extremely unappealing I wouldn't even do it for my pickup truck.. But to each his own..

I suspect the gas is just fine. It is a Top tier fuel.. They claim it is the same quality sold at 76, Mobile, Shell, Chevron and all the major retailers.. etc.

Costco is "Top Tier" rated...as good as Chevron, Union etc....I get gas there whenever
possible. Car runs fine.

Yesterday (10/23/14) $3.059 vs $3.49 or more @ most places for premium in the Seattle area.

Gasoline is Costco's #1 selling product...toilet paper is close.

Wow, I did not know that about their TT rating.

I thought it was those $1.50 hot dogs. Well, maybe gas is #1 in $, not quantity. Whatever. Doesn't matter. I don't go there because the clerk yelled at me the last time I was there and made me cry.

OK, granted, I was trying to use someone else's membership and they don't permit that, but I was already upset because I had to wait in line for 20 minutes and they don't take most credit cards.

Living in Nor Cal I have never experienced any lines. But then I never go on the weekend to Costco for anything let alone gas. The gas as most Costco products is as good or better then most name brands. They do a pretty good job selecting their suppliers on all the products they sell. Their incredible return policy almost mandates it.
