If the vehicle has never been registered (regardless of how many miles are on it), the vehicle is legally considered new. Once it has been registered, it's legally a used car. Demos are new cars that have been driven by the car dealer as test-drive vehicles. They will sport 'dealer' plates. Often they are used by a salesperson as a their personal vehicle and can have hundreds to several thousand miles on them.
So, it's not the mileage; it's the registration.

Can a car with 1900 miles on it be legally sold by a dealer as a new car in the state of Texas?
If the car has never been titled then it can be sold as new. A new car demonstrator or demo will often have as many as 5,000 miles on it and still sold as new.
Can a car with 1900 miles on it be legally sold by a dealer as a new car?
At our dealership it could be sold as a demonstrator. The car in our jurisdiction would have to be not registered to an owner, the mileage explained and then the car could still be sold as new with the warranty starting at 1900 miles.
How many miles can a car in Kansas have and be sold as new?
It has nothing to do with the miles. It has to do with the title. If the car has never been titled it can be sold as new. Typically in the situation of a demo a dealer will put less than 5,000 miles on the car. The warranty is not affected because it starts when you purchase the car not from zero miles but from the miles at that time.
Can a rav 4 go to 300000 miles?
Probably. Many Toyotas go several hundred thousand miles. My Dad sold his Camry at 280000 miles about 8 months ago, and we still see that car driving around town from time to time. I used to own a Corolla that had 180000 miles when I sold it, and the buyer drove it another 50000 miles before he sold it.
Can a car with 5400 miles on it be sold as new?
No.
How many miles can a new car in California have before it is considered a used car?
In the state of California miles on a car do not factor in if it is used or not. California considers a vehicle new until it is reported as sold by the DMV.
When buying a new car from a dealer can an auto with 632 miles on it be sold for new?
Yes, as long as it has not be titled to anyone, it is still new with 632 miles on it. It is a demonstrator, and as such the price should reflect that.
How does a new car warranty work with miles?
It typically starts the day the car is put into service meaning the day is sold to its first owner. The miles on warranty would start at that time as well. If you have a 3 yr/36,000 mile warranty and the day you buy the car it has 458 miles on it then your warranty would expire at 36,458 miles or 3 years from purchase date. Which ever comes first. I have to respectfully disagree with the above answer. The warranty is for 36,000 miles and it runs out at 36,000 miles even if the car had 458 miles on it when sold new for the first time. With that many miles the car would be heavily discounted as a demonstrator. But let's say it had 2 miles on it. The warranty still runs out at 36,000 miles and not 36,002. It is not a warranty to the buyer it is a new car warranty and it starts the instant the car rolls out of the factory.
