Last night I went to pick up my blazing blue yaris ordered it 2 Months ago they found one in KY I live in IN told them i didn't want any miles on it so they said they would trailer it in .I got there horrible night rain anyway they had it inside the saleman gave me the key to check it out I used to work with this guy years ago alway thought he was a real nice guy anyway i didn't check the miles he said it had 10 miles on it so i took his word for it i even had to sigh a paper saying it had 10miles anyway i took off it it and noticed it had 101 miles on it .Really nothing i can do now but bitch i sighed the paper.I wonder if they really trailered it in or it just had a bunch of test drives on it in Ky.Heck i would have took it anyway guess i am stupid for not checking the mileage It doesn't have the tenth of a mile thing on could have been a mistake but i though he acted funny and was in a hurry for me to sigh the paper live and learn i guess

Test drive miles rack up quickly. I'd consider myself lucky to get any Yaris with 100 miles on it... let alone a LB. Enjoy the car and consider yourself lucky.

Mine had 100 miles on it when I drove it off the lot in June. Don't cry over spilt milk.

slvryaris · 10-28-2006, 03:40 PM

Mine had 6 miles on it. I suppose you live in Southern Indiana like myself Gonzo. woops just seen French Lick. Whens that damn casino goin in over there????

paeko73 · 10-28-2006, 03:46 PM

Mine got 3 miles when I saw it. I test drove it 3 miles, and finally drove it off the dealer's lot with a total of 6 miles.

eco · 10-28-2006, 03:49 PM

Mine had 8 on it.

BlueLiftback · 10-28-2006, 04:00 PM

Mine had 1 (yes 1). I work at the dealer though, hehe

Just FYI though, I paid MSRP (despite being an employee... it's a Blazing Blue 5-Speed), and she's worth every penny

Mine had 10 km on the odometer (about 6.1 miles) at the time of delivery.

KSIbucky · 10-28-2006, 04:59 PM

that will happen you probably signed paper saying that their were miles on it but it is still factory ready dont cry

Black Yaris · 10-28-2006, 06:03 PM

5 miles when I picked up my baby

foober · 10-28-2006, 06:11 PM

mine had like 50 miles on it when I picked it up. Which was odd. Cause it just came off the boat was shipped to my dealership and then I got it that same day. I'd have to guess my dealership took it out for a spin before I got it. They'd mentioned before that none of them had even seen a yaris liftback until mine got there. That was over 6 months ago. My yaris runs like a dream with over 4000 miles on it so I can't complain.

gonzo452001 · 10-28-2006, 08:41 PM

I love the car but don't like being lied to it could have been a honest mistake .
The casino opens in a week or so i wouldn't go there for a while still a lot of work going on there slvryaris if you see a blazing blue yaris around there most likely be me haven't seen any LB's besides mine around here

tekmoe · 10-28-2006, 09:06 PM

mine had 8 miles when i bought it. 2 of those were from the salesguy going to fill it up. the other 6 may have been from the techs down at the factory who tested it. who knows. i asked the sales guy twice if anyone had test driven this car before me and he said no. i took his word for it so i hope he was telling the truth.

XSarge · 10-28-2006, 10:10 PM

Mine had 48 miles on it. Thats 40 more than when I tested it.

riceboy · 10-28-2006, 10:37 PM

3 whole km's

hasher22 · 10-29-2006, 01:50 AM

Mine was like 100, of course its pretty obvious i got the car that was the "test drive car"

Pars · 10-29-2006, 06:04 AM

It could have been worst. Mine had 50km and a big ding on the door that was touched up with paint. I didn't notice it until I drove it home and got to take another look at it, in the sun. That's when I noticed the ripple/ding when viewed at a certain angle. When I was at the dealership, I wanted to have them take the car out in the sun so that I could inspect it before taking delivery, but the sales guy was in a rush, plus he came off as really sincere (duh), so I let it slide. My wife tells me that I'm a sucker for these sales people, guess she's right.
