4 miles on the showroom floor. Me on the right with my game face on working the deal April 24, 2014...

Also not necessarily true that the dealers mechanic abused the car either but you just don't know. Who knows, maybe the guy at GM took it for a tire spinning, 6500 rpm cruise during his testing??? There are too many cars with less than 5 miles to buy one with more.

Perhaps true. But mine was special ordered and I took R8C Museum Delivery - a different car wasn't an option! And it was still in its shipping wrapper when I arrived to pick it up. I doubt very much it was hot-rodded around town. I've had no trouble whatsoever with it in over 29,100 miles either.
