Thats awesome, mine had 25. Most of which from the dude who ‘ordered’ the car and said he wanted to ‘think about it’.

That would be Lexus and your dealership. I know random Corvettes have 20-30 miles because they're randomly driven for quality checks. Then the dealer drives it for PDI. As for the drive mode... you'll never know. And in this case ignorance is bliss

My IS 350 had 7 miles on it when I test-drove it for the first time, and supposedly it had come straight off a truck after getting transferred from another dealership. When I first test-drove my 2016 IS, it also had 7 miles. So it seems like 5-10 miles is pretty normal.

Hi, Can you please tell me where you bought the rims / what brand are they?? I'm having a very hard time finding rims for the rear with the offset of 60... Thank you!

If you are looking for winter wheels, you can go 18 inches which will give you more sidewall for eventual potholes. Aftermarket wheels with a 60 offset a like non-existant.
I'm personally running 18x8.5 all around for my winter setup, also allows front to rear rotation to maximize thread life (kinda needed with the 500! lol!)

I must've been fortunate then. My car got off the truck with 2 miles, went into PDI with 2 miles, and I did the test drive (yes they omitted the test drive portion of the PDI at my request) with 2 miles.

Sorry, I don't know of any, my brother-inlaw bought a 2022 not too long ago and just passed away from cancer . I may buy the car from my mother-inlaw. I know he did buy it from a Lexus dealership in Toronto.
