Default new car question

Hi,

I was just wondering if 40 miles on a brand new car is considered a lot. That's how many miles my SI had on her when i picked her up. I see a lot of people with the mileage in the single digits when they bought their SIs. Got me a little jealous, lol. j/k.

I had 30 miles on mine, but it was a trade between dealers since my dealer didn't have any 5MT coupes at the time.

My car came with 6KM ~ 3.7miles, so looks like someone took your Si for a drive before you got it

could've been a trade from another dealership. 40 miles is alot but nothing too crazy. plus before you get the car the honda guys test your car anyway. ur never gonna get a car with 0 miles. unless honda doesn't do that and only the high end dealerships do it

i think that miles reflect on the test drives by other customers...mine was 11 miles

40 miles is nothing. Mine had almost 90 miles on it. They were from test drives.
