Mileage on a new car?
I apologize in advance if this question is in the wrong forum but...what kind of mileage should a "brand new" car have? I bought my first '06 Z and it had only 9 miles on it. I'm going in to look at a 2010 Roadster this weekend and the dealer says it has 24 miles on it. Usually this wouldn't bother me too much but they, much too willingly and easily, offered me under invoice in less than 2 emails back and forth. It got me wondering if they're trying to pass off a tester to me...

i had like 37 miles on my car when i got it. it was trucked in but i'm sure someone drove it around a bit at the original dealer. normal really. just do a thorough inspection and you'll be fine.
look for wheel rubs, paint chips where the bumpers meet the fenders and rear quarters, scratches on the interior (especially the cup holder area) |
This has been beat to death in other threads. I've bought new cars with anywhere from 4 to 300 miles. The latter were driven in from other dealerships by old men who do this all the time. Don't sweat it..

Great, thanks for the responses. It's just that I barely had to negotiate on price, it seems they're practically throwing the car at me. Can't complain, I guess! I always do a thorough inspection and things won't be different here. Thanks again.

Ya should be ok... hey since you are local just curious what dealer you are working with if you dont mind sharing.. I had to fight to get close to invoice on my Z at Arlington Nissan.

Mine had 98 miles ... 80 and change of it coming from driving it from San Antonio to Austin for me. I don't know if it was some old man who drove it up, but the car was perfect

Mine had 62. I used that when negotiating a deal, said it was too high for me, and they whacked a little more off the top. I figure as long as somebody didn't beat the snot out of it for 40-50 miles...and after 1300 driven, all is well.

When I was there, one of the salesmen there told me they have 2 brand new 2008 (yes 2008) Nismo Z's still in stock there. Can probably get them both for the price of that roadster.. Good luck on the purchase! |
