Mileage upon delivery?

When you picked up your car, how many miles did it have?

Thx, -mark

Curious as well. I wonder if it would be unheard of to ask for a DME report on a new delivery... (yes, I am paranoid)

think my was around 30.

also i was told that there's a limiter set in the ECU that wont allow the vehicle to go over 10 mph.

They change this during PDI.

That part that worries me is after the PDI, and its in the dealers hands

Very good point.

You can try to circumvent that by going to the dealer to look at the car when it comes off the truck.

We asked this on the 991 Forum a while back. Average was around 15 miles IIRC:

Exactly ... Sadly my first Porsche came from another dealer ( not the one I was buying it from ) When I went to pick up the car it had almost 500 miles on it
Really pissed me off but when you buy your first Porsche (no less your new car ) you are in heaven so it didn't hit me until later That will not happen again...
