Is that typical to have 237 miles on a “New” vehicle?

50% facetious, 50% ignorant to new car sales.

Yes. If you buy a car that has been on the lot for a month or longer very common. Only way you will get one with <100 miles is if you buy pretty much when it arrives. I sold Porsche years ago in college and professional school, the cars arrived at the dealer for 25-40 miles. Then and pretty much all ended up with 35-55 miles when they were available to sell. Test drives were ~10-15 miles, salesmen would take the flashier cars to events, management with take them home for the weekend. Except for the custom orders and exotics (GT2/GT3/Carrera GT) Most cars I sold ended up sold with 150-200 miles.

my bet is this one is getting taken to events and driven by management. Also if it is the only LC at the dealer getting more test drives then normal.

I’ve seen a few non-HE 2021s on Autotrader in the $100k+ price range as well. Crazy.

We scoff, but they will sell it.

Yeah, seems odd. That’s a lot of test drives

Wow. I was just thinking today of selling my ‘13 with 140,000. Looks like I could get close to 40k. Which is absolutely crazy.
Will wait and see what the new Tundra has to offer. And what ever else ToyotaUSA will be offering to the “don’t get to have” 300 series folks.

I have HE with 2K miles. Ping me if interested and will save you $5k

When I was looking for mine the dealer GM was using one as his demo vehicle. For a “new” vehicle it had 2,500 miles on it! Hard pass.

I got one at the same dealer with 5 miles on it, no one had test driven it before us!

I bought mine a year ago as a new car that was the owners demo. 9k discount off sticker. Didn't have a problem with it having 3000 miles on it.
