30 purchased in Oct. Probably the hardest 30 miles the car will ever see.

78 I drove it, and there was another test drive immediately before mine. That probably leaves 50 or so unaccounted for.

I don't care, the car is tight and quiet, not a single blemish (knock wood) and runs great.

Not sure. it was under 10. Mine came off the truck from the factory and I picked it up the next day. Any miles on it should have been testing at the factory and the predelivery check.

6 miles on it then they took it to the gas station to fill tank and came back with total of 7 whopping miles on the car. I was pretty happy with that.

My brother's 07' TL-S had 5 miles on it when I picked it up. When I first test drove a Type-S a couple months ago, it had like 4 miles on it from another test drive I guess. I put an additional 11 miles on it and I'm sure those were the hardest 11 miles that car will ever endure (the salesman didn't go with us on the drive). We didn't even end up buying his TL-S from that dealer lol. Sorry to whoever bought that car

5 miles were on it when I saw it on the lot. Still had all the plastic covers inside and the white plastic covers on the outside. I was told they just took it off the truck and that nobody drove it before me.

Hahaha isn't that what they usually say about women? "It's not the years, it's the mileage."

1.2 (Odo said 1, but the trip meter said 1.2, which is how I knew about the 0.2 part)

I believe it was 3 miles. After I drove it home, it was well over 1,000 miles. Best way to break in a new car, too!

4.

we found it in the back of the lot. It just came off the truck and they were in the process of removing all the plastic... So the miles were from the testing...
