Hmmmmmmmmm.........now that I'm thinking about it, I guess I was so excited when Bob presented me with the Black Cat, that I never paid attention to how many miles might have been on it!!

I picked up my Candy Cat at the plant, so there was less than a mile on it when I took it home!!

3 miles on mine.

The dealer didn't belive me when I told him it would be shipped one at a time and enclosed. He said what ever you say you know more about it than I do. When it got here and the delivery persons put on their white gloves to unload it my dealer said "I thought they were delivering the presidential limo".

Never drove it. Bought it, they delivered it, put it in storage and drove it a couple of weeks later.

I thought about it and the first one I drove one was back in '97 my boss at the time had a Viper and was waiting for his Prowler, he finaly got it, brought it to work and asked me if I wanted to drive it, so I took it for a cruise, it was nice, but at that time I was not ready to buy any car.

Only after the deal was made did I get to drive it. I purchased it at a local Auto Mall. The salesman and I drove by a construction site, and work literally stopped. All kinds of hooting and hollering........really cool! It had 7 mi on it when I picked it up.

Thru May & June I was looking for a Kat. Did all the searches and got great advice from POA. I found a blue one at a dealership about 30 miles from here. Talked to the dealership on the phone about the car and went the next day and test drove it. They let me take it out by myself without a salesman. My personal taste was not for a dark colored car, the best they would do was $41,900, so I didn't get this one.
After almost getting burned on a BAD used one, I cut a deal on a used yellow one out of Knoxville, TN with only 580 miles. A guy had bought it on a Fri., drove it to his lake home for the weekend, saw a friend's Viper on Sun. and traded for a yellow Viper on that Mon.
They transported it to me and dropped it off at my local dealership. I drove it about 5 miles to my wife's office to show her. It was a surprise so I got my mother-in-law to be ther too because I knew my wife wouldn't raise too much hell in front of her! She wanted a new home and I knew she wouldn't be crazy about the purchase.
She loved it! I told her to drive to pick up our son from summer camp as I followed her in my Tahoe.
Boy was he surprised! He and I drove the Kat until about 9:00 pm and he even wanted to sleep in it that night!
He begs me to pick him up from school now.

The dealer just handed me the keys and let me and my girlfriend test drive it on the interstate. I guess they were eager to get rid of it. It was a 2001 Mulholland with 29 miles. I bought it two months ago.

The thought never even crossed our minds to test drive one! We ordered ours in 97' and it showed up in Oct 99'. We got the call that it was in and we drove straight over to the dealership and signed the papers. Didn't even wait for it to quit raining!

We walked into the dealer in November of 2001, within 1/2 hour Lee was test driving it and the next day we bought it. She had 33 miles on her when they let Lee test drive it, he went down country roads then onto the highway actually let him take the top down during the cruise. Salesman was wonderful.
