Mileage at Delivery
Just curious, to all you lucky owners that have already taken delivery. What was the mileage when you took delivery of your car?

10. I noticed the standard test route around the dealership was 6 miles, so the car probably showed up with 4 and someone ran the route before I came in.

4 off the truck, I put on 7 during the test drive and picked it up the next day with 11.
4+7=nobody else drove it but me.

Mine had 6, and I picked it up directly at the port.

Although technically it had more when it was officially delivered, after I drove it to the dealership...

6 when I first got to the dealer. They insisted I go for a drive. So by the time the paperwork was filled out it was 18.:D

For those of us that have not taken delivery yet. We could safely assume that anything over 10 miles should raise some questions to your dealer

about 2, a little less. Rolled right off the transport truck into the detailing bay and around to the front of the dealer nice and gassed up ready for me to take it away.

130 by the end of that night :D. (7/21/03)

4.5 when I arrived at the dealership, 5.3 when I finished my test drive. However, mysteriously it ended up with 12.6 after the tech took it to get fueled up.
