Hey phatom, I just recently moved from there and got my 2002 P5 from NorthHill. I believe mine didn't go in for any inspections that I know of. Mine had 8 KM's when I picked mine up and drove it of the lot there and the service guy just went to go put a tank of gas in so it probably had 6 KM's on it at the time. Talk to Donny or Riaz and find out WHY there is so many K's on it already. Don't take any bullshit either, you paid for something brand new, not used. Good luck. L8R

yeah usually mech will give your car a spirited drive, but they won't redline it or do burnouts or anything of the sort (or at least i haven't seen it happen)
my car only came with 3kms on it, and that was from the test track in jpn.

Mine had 23 km. They told me (and gave me an invoice for I believe) that indicated a test drive of some sort. Actually I think that I saw my car when it came off the truck and then again after.
Definitely talk to one of the guys (Bobby Thulio is great, or Riaz) if you are concerned.
Dale.
*edit* have fun with your new car!!!

My car had 41 miles on it when I took delivery. Kinda took me by surprise when I saw it, because I never actually testdrove the one I bought. I testdrove a different one on the lot.
I didn't do anything about it, but maybe I should have? Kinda hard to prove now, with over 10k miles on it.

I myself work at a dealership, [shamelessplug] (Shaganappi Chev Olds, home of the Payment Free 2003 Event) [/shamelessplug]
And we never see anything with that many Km's on it... It sounds to me like someone took your car out for a rip. There's NO reason for it to have that many Km's on it. 37 Km is about 20 minutes of driving in Calgary traffic, :eek so I'd say that someone (mechanic, salesman, whatever) wanted to check it out, and took it for a rip.
Raise hell man, and make them throw in locking lug nuts, a trunk cargo mat, and maybe a bug deflector or something...

Yeah really. I have a feeling some salesman took it for a spin. Or mazda use to reward there salesman of the month by letting him take a new car home . I know my dad use to beat up some turbo 2 RX7's when he was there lol ...Jon
I saw the MSP at North Hill on the way up from Downtown...I guess that one would be yours....its soooo nice!
