    Hi all. I have a question regarding mileage of the new car. Last saturday i went to a showroom and test drive a SUV. the suv was good and i want to purchase the unit asap. i went to the showroom again earlier and talk to the sales rep. She said that they have a new unit arrived 5am in the morning but when i checked the odometer, it has 6 kms. I would like to ask if is it okay if i buy the car with 6kms mileage? or it should be 0km mileage. my dad said that new units must have 0km reading on the odometer. Please help.

    I got my Accent in 2011 with 6kms. Even knowing that it is the exact test drive unit I used and demonstrated to us from Hyundai Otis to Damar Village in Araneta! hahaha the speedo was turned off.

    My Vios was delivered with 71kms on the odo back when I got it 2 years ago.

    Its very remote or rare to get a 0 km reading. Even locally produced Vios or Innova will get driven from the factory floor to the parking space outside the plant.

    A CBU unit will usually have less around 5 or more kms reading. A Toyota CBU can have readings of 50+kms since they don't use car carriers and people from TMP will drive it from the Sta. Rosa to the dealer.

    I wonder kung bakit minsan di gumagamit ng flatbed and minsan gumagamit. Naalala ko kumuha ko ng hilux from toyota san fernando mga 80 km na ung odo dahil dinrive lang. While nung nandun ako meron namang mga bagong baba galing sa flatbed kala ko nga andun na yung sakin e.

    Impossible ang O mileage. Maliban siguro kung abangan mo yung kotse mo mismo dun sa endline ng production. Which is also next to impossible since after a car rolls out of the plant, road test muna sa test track yan at ipapasok sa water bath (to check for water leaks). Quality control stuff will also be done, as well at static and dynamic pre-delivery inspections.

    So it will have mileage talaga.

    Nga pala, funny story on a Ferrari with a "mileage" case.
