Yeah . . . doesn't that 34 miles bug? I ordered mine directly from the factory. No other potential customers had ever even taken it for a test-drive. But it still had 12 miles on it. The dealership takes all their cars out to make sure everything's working on it. How great would it be to get to watch the odometer click up from 000000 to 000001. Is that too much to ask for something that costs $35,000? I think they ought to work like Circuit City. There should be a floor model that people can test out, but you get the boxed unit that's never been used. And when they finally decide to pull the model off the floor, some lucky bastard will get to buy it for $27,000.

My most recent car was a direct factory order and it still had 6 miles on it....still, was cool watching it tick up from there :cheers:

Well, most places around here drive their cars from the port when they come off....since we are so close. The dealer we bought it from is about 30 miles from the port, and the rest was our test drive.

We test drove one from the lot, and then because of the color took an untouched one from the storage area, 6 miles. I think we test drove about 15 so we were definitely ahead of the game.

unfortunately, they are driven out of the factory so i bet if all they did was drive it onto a truck and then unload it at a dealer in the same town you would still have 1/2 mile or so on it...
