10 or 12 miles after it was delivered . I know they took it off site to fill it with gas. MY salesmen seemed like a mature guy and probably enjoyed the ride.
If a car could be damaged in 10 miles I would t buy one.
My '19 Bullitt had 5m after a (negotiated) fill-up, too. I picked it up on a Saturday so the techs weren't there to change it from 'transport mode,' and it was a dog, with less apparent torque than my '08 Bullitt. Stalled it coming out of the parking lot.

My car had 22 after my test drive (which was around 4-5 miles as it was very low on fuel). I'm sure the odometers had 0 when assembled but it does add up with them driving it from production to storage lot, load onto car transports, driving onto the ship and off the ship and finally the 8 miles or so to my dealer from the port.

IIRC it's about 2 or 3 inches square and reads something like This vehicle was chosen for quality control and driven ___ miles. The actual miles were handwritten. I think it also said something about not affecting the warranty mileage.
When I picked-up my '20 GT vert from the dealer, which I special ordered, it was prepped and ready to go. It had 37 miles on it and that somewhat concerned me.

Having not been there when they rolled it off the truck, the dealer told me it had been driven prior to shipment for quality control purposes. Being that my dealer is very reputable, I didn't question it.

I suspect the reason mine was selected for quality control was the fact that I ordered it with a manual transmission, performance pack, active exhaust, and Magne-ride; but who knows.

2020 factory order came with less than 1 km / mile, which the salesman invited me to see as soon as it was off the transport truck.

PDI didn't add anything, gas fill up added the distance to the station and back.

Seems like some of you should be asking questions if you care about this stuff.

37 miles doesn’t seem like quality control, it seems like someone took it for a spin.

5. Couldn't drive it home though. Unexpected heart surgery that week. Wife had a lot of fun driving it home. Sit in the garage and look at it. You got to laugh. She had a Chevy 396 4 barrel in her twenties. LOL
