Default Do you put Costco gas in your Porsche?

I've been fueling other vehicles at Costco and haven't had an issue. What has been your experience?

Always Costco.

Same Top Tier gas. Lower price.

Win. Win.

Costco or Sams Club. Both work fine.

Any Top Tier station including Costco and QuickTrip, but never a non TT station.

As long as it is Top Tier except I won’t go to Valero. Twice I have gotten gas from there, two different stations, in my Jeep and it did not like it. Coughed and sputtered trying to start. No more for me.

Never had a problem and at 75 cents a gal less, why not. Up here is NCal i use Safeway gas in the P and the wife’s MBZ. Depending on Safeway purchases sometimes got 90 cents off their already cheaper prices.

I don't have problem with warehouse retailer gas but I had never, ever used them before. This is not due to quality concerns but because of the long line. No matter what time of day you go, there is always a huge line.
