New Delivery Odometer Miles
 
For those of you that have taken delivery of a new non-test driven 370Z, how many X.X miles were on the odometer?

ScooterN2 02-25-2009 03:39 PM

I ordered mine and when it arrived it had 8 miles on it.

nogoodname 02-25-2009 03:42 PM

when i picked the G, it had 22 Km on it...full tank of gas also

BanningZ 02-25-2009 05:37 PM

The one I'm currently looking at has 10 miles on it, but they said that it was test driven once, and twice by salesmen.

I'm okay with 10 miles.

RCZ 02-25-2009 05:38 PM

8 Miles on mine.

Nikon FM 02-25-2009 08:04 PM

4 miles on mine

ufcpa 02-25-2009 09:44 PM

8 miles on mine too.

frost 02-25-2009 09:52 PM

Interesting. I would have guessed in the mid teens.

NorCalZman 02-26-2009 01:19 PM

I do not get it. I think even 4 miles is a lot for a new car. Where do these miles come from if not test drives or joyrides? factory to truck, truck to ship, ship to truck, truck to dealer lot. I dont see how that equals 4 miles or more. I wont be taking delivery of my Z if it has more than 4 miles on it. unreasonable? I dont care. My roommate took his G off the lot with 4 miles.

par4bmw 02-26-2009 03:15 PM

5.2 until I test drove it and they put gas in. :driving:

AK370Z 02-26-2009 05:29 PM

I was told up to 17 mile is reasonable and acceptable for delivery. Sometimes cars go through different testing by Nissan or drive from port to truck etc. Anything more than 17 and you're in the shady zone. Your car may have been a demo car. I think there's a thread where a member from a Nissan dealer agreed the above statement.

shumby 02-26-2009 06:00 PM

Some G came with a note in the glove box stating that is was driven by _________ on the test track in japan befor shipping.

brisk 02-26-2009 10:57 PM

^ yea i had that note in my g35 and it had 45 miles on it.

but this time i around i want to witness the unloading of my car.
to make sure no one will joy ride it.

That's one reason why I'm ordering mine. I don't trust buying a car off the lot that has more than 15-20 miles. You never know who has taken the car out for a spin, and with this type of car, you can be pretty sure they've taken it up towards redline.

Anatoray 03-07-2009 11:21 PM

Mine had 6 miles on it

tvfreakazoid 03-08-2009 07:45 PM

If I get one I want one with no miles on it. Cause when the dealers test drive it, you know they drove it really hard.

That's impossible. You can never buy a car with 0 miles. for 370Z, range is 4-15 miles.

frost 03-08-2009 08:30 PM

^ right, they have to do some testing. But if your desire for wanting 0 miles is because they are beaten on test drives, don't concern yourself with 4 miles.

tvfreakazoid 03-09-2009 04:33 PM

Good to know.

No clue what you're saying but here's break in instruction for new tires (courtesy of "dad" via tirerack)

Quote:

Breaking In Your Tires

Tires are comprised of many layers of rubber, steel and fabric. Due to these different components, your new tires require a break-in period to ensure that they deliver their normal ride quality and maximum performance. As tires are cured, a release lubricant is applied to prevent them from sticking in their mold. Some of the lubricant stays on the surface of your tires, reducing traction until it is worn away. Five hundred miles of easy acceleration, cornering and braking will allow the mold release lubricant to wear off, allowing the other tire components to begin working together. It is also important to note that your old tires probably had very little tread depth remaining when you felt it was time to replace them. As any autocrosser or racer who has tread rubber shaved off of his tires will tell you, low tread depth tires respond quicker."Don't be surprised if your new tires are a little slower to respond (even if you use the exact same tire as before). Their new, full depth brings with it a little more tread squirm until they wear down.

How many miles did the 370z have when you picked it up?
 
Like the tittle says. My salesman found mine in the system but the car wasnt even at a dealership, it was in some sort of storage facility and when they took it to the nearest dealer I went with the salesman so I could drive it back. Black Base w/sports p. 6 MT, picked it up with 16 miles. After 17 days, now it has 1590. I cant stop driving it! :bowrofl:

tbonesteak 03-31-2009 12:25 AM

16 is very little i know....but when i bought my s2000, i remember seeing 6 on the odo when i checked the car out....and when they did the detail job and went out to get gas, it read 13 when they came back. 7 miles of local is a LOT of joyriding if you ask me. That's y on the other thread i asked how you drive to get gas.....something smart to do that i never thought of even asking.

Anatoray 03-31-2009 12:37 AM

6 when i checked it out, 12 when i returned from my test drive, 17 when they finished gasing it up and detailing it. The mileage was due to me specifying shell v-power, and I knew the nearest one was a couple miles away. They even gave me the receipt of proof without me asking for it.

He actually offered for me to drive it there. I bought Nissan for my wife from this dealer with the same salesperson before. We actually took a yellow 370z to this other dealer so that we could get the black one I wanted. So I drove there (in a yellow 370), drove back (in my black 370), and then went to get gas when all the paperwork was finished. Then drove home. :)

tbonesteak 03-31-2009 01:29 AM

man...u need to hook me up with this dealer. Im gonna buy relatively soon!!

batman_4 03-31-2009 01:30 AM

25mi.

drisko 03-31-2009 01:44 AM

7mi. I think 5-6mi is the lowest possible becuase I saw the items in the PDI test and a decent amount of driving is involved (and it gets to the dealer with probably a minimum of 2mi on it).

Forumite 03-31-2009 06:36 AM

Mine had 22 on it and 45 after the test drive. I purchased it last Monday and it already has 700(ish) miles on it. I'm in the process of finding a cheap beater car to drive because my daily commute is around 150 miles.

Brazilbro 03-31-2009 09:09 AM

11 on mine and after 21 days Im up to 690. I guess when you live 1 mile from work and everything else it takes awhile to break this puppy in.

Musashi 03-31-2009 09:29 AM

about 200! Because they had to dealer trade to get it. Car was about 3 hours away. Some old retired fart that works for the dealer drove it. Whatever...

117. Like Musashi mine was at another dealer many miles away, in another state in fact! That trip alone was at least 85 miles. Some older retired dude from the dealership drove it.

alan93rsa 03-31-2009 11:29 AM

165 on mine. It was a dealer trade which I was made of aware of prior to their getting the car. I was told the miles would be on the car up front.

Really happy with Ed Martin Nissan in Indy.

kevr6 03-31-2009 12:48 PM

You all faired better than I. I was promised no more then 200 since it was a DT but they miscalculated :icon14:
I had just over 400...it was a used car when I got it! LOL
This is why they are going to install the rear storage cover system that doesn't come with the Base interior! I should have asked for the better pedal
covers that come with the Touring interior! :rolleyes:
!!Of course I did get the car 2.5% below invoice before options through employee friends/family
program!! ;)
