Someone trade in their 2021 Inspiration with 11 miles
I wonder why he/ she trade in so early. Trade in for convertibles? Too bad just right after I bought my convertibles. Otherwise I may buy that.

They found out it was all black?
Seriously, a shinier toy probably came along. Only so much garage space.
And we don’t know how that car fit into the owner’s stable, if it’s usefulness overlapped another vehicle.
In higher end markets, supercars, lots of cars are driven a thousand miles and something more interesting to the owner cames along. And many are driven a few hundred miles and just sit.

Someone probably bought it thinking they could flip it like the Convertible Inspiration Series.......and simply want out since the coupes are not selling for $50k over MSRP....

could also be someone at the dealer bought it. but only 11 miles is crazy because either way it means they may not have driven it at all!

It was probably a program car. The dealership sold it to themselves to book a sale and make their August numbers. No way it would have 11 miles if someone actually drove it home. Either that or the dealer processed the paperwork and buyer reneged or failed to come through on their deal.

Actual ODO is 15 miles.

I think it means when a dealership buys its own cars and then uses them for their own purposes, such as for loaners. Usually it's done to make numbers. Obv they wouldn't use an LC as a program car but they may have sold it to themselves to play an accounting trick.

This was definitely an Insider Deal. This car was sold but not driven. Then retitled. So dealer could not resale as new I'm guessing.

Sometimes a dealer will buy a car to get the factory to dealer incentive before it expires. Then sell it as used and todays prices he is not taking a loss.
I sold Toyota's in the mid 90's and it happened often.
