Mine had 6. Told the guy I didn't want to take that one, let's take the "demo" one out, since I am absolutely, positively NOT buying an RX8.
Well, when we came back nearly two hours later, the car had over 50 miles on it, and it was a done deal. No regrets.

Mine had 25 miles on it....15 of those were from my test drive. I took it up to 6k during the test drive because i thought i was getting one with a sport package but ended up getting the one i test drove because it was the only one left in the state with out a sport package. argg..that few moments it was at 6k is really bothering me now. i've been driving it extraa granny style during my break in.

Mine had 1.7km on it. Oh and about the driving to the ship thing, I saw a t.v show once over here in Japan where they tested professional drivers skills in all sorts of different events for fun, and one of the guys driving in it was one of the people that drive cars onto the ship. They had a video of it being done, and it's insane how close they pack the cars to each other. Have to be really fast too.

Test drive car had 600-700 miles on it - the one I purchased had 20 when I signed the papers, 16 of those were my test drive. I was pretty vocal about getting one off the truck with as few miles as possible.... Over 10K now and no real problems (my drivers side seat seems to have a piece of metal poking through, but the dealer has ordered a new unit under warranty)

The loaner 8 the dealer gave me to drive had 7 miles on it when they gave me the keys, they are getting it back with about 500 miles
Sorry some future owner, but I did drive it properly while in my care so not to worry about the miles.

Mine had 65 Miles. It was delivered to my house last Friday by a driver who had to collect my hire one (cos they were three weeks late in delivering it!) . Still had bits of blue plastic on the centre console. Very dusty on the outside. I didnt care. :-)

When I ordered mine, it was on the boat to get here. I sat in it the day it came to the dealership from the JAX port. It had 0.1 miles on it at that time.

They must have built your car in the ship and row your car to the dealership LOL :D

Mine had 108 miles. I think I got the dealer test drive RX-8, but I didn't care.
btw- at least 25 of those miles were from my test drive.
