While 200 miles may be a lot for a 370z compared to a Sentra/Versa on the lot, I wouldn't worry about 200. 3-500 is my cutoff for new car miles. A dealer offered me a car with 800 and I swiftly declined.
If I was looking for a new car, 150 miles on the odometer would make it used to me (and a lot of others on this board, I bet). The dealer knows that they're going to have trouble unloading that vehicle, and they should be willing to discount the price more than $365 below invoice. And if it had 500 miles on it - fuggedaboudit, it's used!

OK, thought he was talking about the sport package, and the Z is definitely a valid concern (that was my point)... BTW, is it possible to "gun" a Prius at a red light (or anywhere, for that matter)?
