Actually thats not correct. A demo means the car has been put in service and always starts from the inservice date, otherwise its not a demo.
Some dealers misrepresent cars as demos to hide the fact that they have just been sitting around the lot for a while or to justify the miles. Some dealerships(most) use demos as perks for employees to drive. normally they just discount them to cost and take off some for depreciation. Normally you can get a new 0 mile car for the same if your savy enough.
