I got you all beat, mine had 168 miles, plus it had the sticker of another ford dealer on it. Which makes me think someone custom ordered it, had it to delievered to my ford dealer, and then changed their mind, so im assuming the mileage is from someone driving it from one dealer to another; plus they let me have it overnight, so i drove it 100 miles, so bought it with 300 techincally, hehe..

Just curious if anyone knows how many miles or tenths are put on the car as it rolls out of the factory? My car comes in any day now, and I'm working so won't be able to pick it up till late. I have visions of the Ferris Bueller's Day Off car attendants now working at the Ford Dealership and taking my new baby for a wild ride or worse yet, letting customers in my baby to test drive it before I get there.
Call me paranoid but I've been screwed over at just about every turn with this group and I wouldn't put it past them to do this since they have no GT's otherwise on the lot for people to test drive.

Mine had 15 miles on it. It bothered me a little especially when I was signing the paperwork. One of the forms they had me sign, had the mileage written down for me to confirm that that was the mileage when I picked it up. On the form it had 3 miles on it. I told them no, it actually has 15. He was like oh, well I know they had to put "gas" in it. I just dropped it because I didn't want to ruin an otherwise great day, even though I knew there was a gas station about .25 miles away. it stinks but you just get to get over it quickly and enjoy your new ride.

Mine had 2.7 miles on it when I picked it up after the PDI. Mine was the first '05 Mustang that the dealer received, back in October. I talked to the fleet manager before the car arrived, and she assured me that no one would drive the car, except to put gas in it (which was 100 yards away).

1.8 on mine! I had them to put it in the holding lot until I could get to the dealer. I preformed the road test myself although the Tech had to ride with me and fill out the paper work.

Had 55 on mine, and it was the first one at the dealership. I am quite confident everyone at the dealer took a turn driving it, and I really don't care - unless it's wrecked you can't hurt anything. I would not want a car that could not survive a porter or a salesman. If I was buying a Ford GT it might be a different story...

Don't have my Stang yet but I was told by my salesperson that they need to put atleast 10m on it when it arrives at the dealer. However, she did offer to call me so that I can ride with them for those 10m if I would like.

1.9 miles when mine arrived at the dealer. 9.0 miles when I picked it up after the PDI and gas fill-up. Hated that, but what are you going to do? :bang:
Doesn't seem to be any problems though, after 1100 miles.

And the answer is..................
5 miles at final pickup.
I was so happy. Got it late this afternoon and drove it around to all my High School friends that used to give me grief in the 80's about my Lime Gold 68 Fastback. Everyone loved it. Didn't get home till after dark so I'll post pictures in the picture thread tomorrow after I was the bugs off of it.
