Would you consider this a new car??

I think of those first 1,000 miles as very precious and important on breaking the car in. What do you all think?

I was pissed to hear of this right when I was about to finalize the deal.

Am I overreacting?

That's what I would pay for 10 miles. GM's and executives are the worst people to drive the car for personal use

I would call this car a used car not a new car. You should get a lot more off.

If you purchased it with 10 miles

then you trade it in with 1000 miles

How much would the dealer give you


It is not a new car


Thank-You

I went to a different dealer.

I ended up getting 10% off MSRP.
