Hey guy what do you think about buying a new car that has a lot of miles on it still being called new? By high I mean 500. According to some people thats a demo, to others its just transpertation. I suspect that some of these sales guys drive around the new cars for a month and still sell as new.

Its easy to check delivery on a car, so assuming it was not driven up as some kind of dealer trade, would that much milage be acceptable as new?

 

new is like 1-10 miles. 500 is too much, i would not buy that.

 

x2.

 

500 is alot of test drives, and likely alot of beating

 

with 500, they should be selling it as a Demo car at a used car price.

 

+1

 

They told me a demo is 1500 or more and its never been registered, if they sell at invoice, would that be a good deal?

 

Nope that is not good. You can buy a G for invoice with under 20miles. This car they are trying to sell you might not be the demo car but it was definitely driven and most likely by a sales person or a family member of a manager. You can verify how many miles they put on it by checking the glove compartment. There is a certificate in there by the test driver of the car with the number of miles he/she put on it. Anything over this the dealer did and I would see another dealer for trying to BS you like that.

 

i would try like 1000-2500 below invoice, its a used car but its not that old.

 

well I cant figure out if this was some beater or if they just let someone drive it a while. The ironic part is, I was talking two other dealers in the city looking for a specific color with specific features and both wanted me to put money down to have it shipped to them as a dealer trade. I am pretty sure it was the same car because one of them called me in a panic the day after I said I wanted this car and he was told some else purchased it. So I think I would have gotten the shaft and paid for trade.

 

Run for the hillls!! I would never buy that. Not unless iknew. RUN for the hills bro.

 

I asked my dealer this same question... he said as long as it is not titled it is considered NEW... I dunno if i believe that tho....
I turned a closer, cheaper Athens blue down because it had 400 miles on it and the dealer said it was the first and only 6mt and it had been tested ALOT... I said Hell no... gimme the one with 10 miles on it

 

500 is too much! However if you can get 2500 below invoice then I would that's a fair deal. Think of it this way, the car has 4 years 60000 miles warranty (not considering the tranny and engine warranty), plus you are getting a great deal, now what's the chance of finding major issues with this car?

That's the question you should think about!

Good luck!

 

My G had around 12 miles or so.

 

500 is too high. my car only had 6 miles when i got it. the card inside the glove box says 3 miles.
