Default Miles when picked up ?

How many miles were on your car when you picked it up?
My SS Enthsiast came in late Saturday and I went to see it Monday after work. It was in garage with all paper still in place but it has 26 miles on it. Dealer swears it came right off truck and into garage. What do you think?

My Roadster had 7 miles on it when I picked it up.

There may be added miles if the dealer had to take the car some distance to the nearest gas station to fill it up...

Enjoy!

Default Ebay Sales

The Z Roadsters on Ebay range from 5 miles to 50 miles on them.

I thik Nissan Random checks some of their cars on a track in Japan before they ship them.

At 26 miles I doubt there was any "Bad" driving - I sure if it was any pleasure drives it was the GM who was careful.

Congrats on your new baby - Mine is due within 9 days!!!!!!!!!!

Nissan has 3 stages of quality control. 1. Under/at about 10 miles; 2. 20-30 or so; and, even higher when they pull cars off the line for a very rigid quality check. I wouldn't worry about 26 miles.

Mine had 27 miles on it. Salesman told me it was a dealer trade from a dealership 19 miles away. Well, that comes out to 8 miles on the car when the first dealer received it.
I put another 3 miles on it during the test drive!

When I saw mine the first time it had 29 miles on the clock. The sales manager drove it from the truck to the showroom. I was the next person to drive it off the showroom ramp. It was pushed off the floor and out the door. I've got about 200 on it now and I'm getting ready to go for a ride. See ya!!!!

Mine had 8 miles on it when it left the dealer. Dealer employees delivered it to my door which was 300 miles away so 308 miles when I saw it.

7 miles.

Came off the truck right before I arrived a the dealer ship to take a second look at a CS coupe with ~100 test drive miles. Almost bought the SS coupe until I saw the CS coupe straight of the truck. I stayed at the dealership for two hours while they inventoried and prepped it becasue I didn't want anyone else driving it.

Man, I'll never forget the smell. Not the new car smell from inside but the smell of the engine breaking in.
