How Long Does a Car Need to Sit Before It's Considered a Stock Vehicle?

[Nellie]

A car is considered a stock vehicle if it has been sitting for more than three months from its production date. Here are the methods to check if a new car is a stock vehicle: 1. Check the vehicle's nameplate; 2. Inspect the tire wear and production date; 3. Examine the cleanliness of the exhaust pipe's inner wall; 4. Look for dust in the engine compartment, check for deformation or discoloration of components, ensure everything is tidy, and look for signs of removal; 5. Inspect the rubber parts of the car body for aging or detachment; 6. Check the foot pedals inside the car for wear or excessive dust in the gaps; 7. Observe the gaps in the front and rear bumpers, body panels, and doors, and check for color differences in the paint when opening the doors; 8. Ensure the paint on the lower edge of the door frame is intact.
