How many miles at pick-up??

I am about to pick up a silver EVO.

When i looked at it on Friday it already had 10 miles on it. Is this normal or has someone been joy-riding in my EVO??? What mileage have all you EVO owners had on the car at purchase - and should I even be worried or care about this??

Its going to vary... I think 4-20 miles is going to be normal.. PDI's can be a few miles.. even the distance the car had to be driven before it ended up on a truck to be shipped.. any more than 15 or 20 miles means the car was "test driven" by someone at the dealership.. I do know that several cars are randomly taken out for "Quality Assurance" and they can end up having quite a bit of mileage on them, however I'm fairly certain that those cars have an "Inspected or QA'd By" sticker that is different than the other cars... Correct me if I'm wrong though..

I had zero miles when I bought the car. I went on the PDI so I know the car isn't been pushed. 17 miles on the odometer now.

Mine had 3 miles on it when it rolled off the truck, and 8 after PDI when I picked it up.
