Isn't 6-10 miles on a new car kinda high?
I've read through all the threads of people that have already received their BRZ/FR-S's and people are mentioning them having anywhere from 6-10 miles on them. This concerns me, because back when I purchased my 07 Sti limited off the showroom floor it had 4 miles on the clock and that was with a supposed test drive from the person who ordered it but couldn't finance it. I'm expecting my BRZ on order to have pretty close to the same. I gave the dealership specific orders to not let anyone drive it or put the license plate holder on the front. I'm eventually going to tell them when I finally get my ETA that they can go ahead and just leave the plastic sheeting on the car, to not wash it, and not to bother filling her up as well.
I guess I'm kinda being paranoid........I had to take my Sti in to the dealer about a month after getting it because I couldn't take the loud squealing my brakes constantly made when stopping. The dealer told me my front brake pads were cracked and needed to be replaced. He told me that it was from heating them up too much before they were broken in. I had babied the car from day 1, so I was certain that it was from whatever asshat that drove the car before I bought it.
In your experiences what has the mileage been on the cars you picked up brand new?
How can a car that goes from a factory --> truck -->boat -->truck -->dealership rack up 6-10 miles without someone driving it a bit?
