Default Delivery Checklist

Take a tire pressure gauge with you when you pick up your S.
When I got mine fronts were at 23 and 27. Rears were at 29 and 31. If you don't get a chance to check at the dealer, stop at the first gas station you see after you leave.
I decided to check often for a couple of weeks after delivery just to make sure the tires were holding air. Turns out they are. My conclusion is that I was was the first person to check tp after the car left the factory.

Good Advice - My tire pressure was way high in each tire when I received my car. I have heard that this is a common problem on new cars.

you think that is bad?

Shoot, when i got my Miata I looked over everything except the tire pressure..tires looked fine to me. Car seemd squirly around corners though and I new something was wrong. Checked the tire pressure and driver side was correct front and back at 30lbs but passenger side front and back were at 75lbs.

Just think of what else they "checked" on that list.

Best to go over every point yourself (within reason - ofcourse).

Congrats on the new ride.

Make sure they took the spring spacers out.
