New Delivery Odometer Miles

Justin1686

so i went to the dealer today. and the closest dealer with the car i want is approx 350 miles. they will do a dealer swap for me. but the car will be driven back, instead of trucked back. so my car would come with minimal, 350 miles, and i'd assume it'll have close to 400 with the miles already on it. if i were to get it trucked down, it'd cost me approx $350. what's everyones opinion on this?

Def get it delivered on a flatbed. $350 is nothing considering you're spending $35,000. It's the money you pay for peace of mind. If you let the guy drive it, (also note that "this guy" could be the 17 year kid that loves to do burnout) there will always be that small unsatisfactory feeling about your car. Even if everything is just the way it suppose to be, there will always be a feeling that car has been abused. Also, nothing feels better than driving off a 4 mile (on odometer) Z. I told my dealer either a. car needs to get here on a flatbed (I'm paying for all expense) or b. Nissan car movers (big trucks that bring Zs from port). He was able to do option 2 so I didn't pay a single dime BTW, this is MY opinion.

i was told, (i've bought a car from the salesman before), that the guys they use to get the cars from other dealers are retiree's, that the only thing they do for nissan is go get other cars. so it's a little piece of mind. going to get the car myself is practically out of the question with the hours i work, on sat and sun. i wish i could get a nissan car mover, but he didn't make it sound like that was an option.

Mine had 172 on it when I got back home from Indy where my dealer did a "Dealer Trade" to get it. And I didn't have to pay the $350 to have it done.
