how many miles should be on a new car on the lot

[WhataboutTRD?]

if u go to a dealership and wanna brand new car, how many miles should be on the car, how do you know if its been test driven???

[Sirk_2]

if its been test driven...no more than 50 miles...unless it came from another dealership, then no more than 150 mi.
unforchunately, my old tacoma came with 213mi. brand new, coming from Va. to NC

My Celi had either 13 or 23 miles on it when i bought it.

[WhataboutTRD?]

is there cars with like 0 miles on it?

[2002GT_Celica]

My car had 11, but that wasn't that much...like Sirk_2 said, it shouldn't have more than 50 or so unless it came from another dealership.

My car had 9. Still had covers over the brake discs and spacers in the springs.

i got my car with only 4 miles on it, it came straight from the truck, still had those plastic on the paint and in the car. :) the night before i purchased my car, i went and checked out a gts with no sunroof and no leather...the next day i came back to buy it, the guy told me that after I left, a black gts with sunroof and leather rolled off the truck. It was meant to be, :) very happy with my celica...it was one of the most joyful days of my life and its still is. :)

[01 Spectra GT-S]

got it with 0.3KM on it.

NO.
OK, here`s what happens.

The car is driven off the final assembly line to "road test" which is a dyno to briefly test the drive train.

Then driven outside to the assembly plant`s staging area

From there it`s driven onto a transport to take it to the dock.....then driven off the transport to a wating ship.

Then, it`s driven to its place on the ship......driven off the ship in California to another staging area.

From there it driven numerous times to load/unload on transports to its final destination.

BTW, the people doing all this driving throughout its journy are doing this all day long so, they aren`t exactly babying your car. :)

mine had ~8 miles on it, but then 3 of them were my own test drive :)

lucky bastards.. i had maybe over 130 miles on mine.. cuz it was sitting at the lot for a while.. but then again, i got $5000 knocked off from the MSRP.. so i got my 6speed gts fully loaded for $19,200 plus tax.
