Sorry to come out of nowhere, but could someone hook me up with one as well?

latena 12-12-2012 07:01 PM

I can do an autocheck for you, post the vin or PM it.

Braineack 12-12-2012 07:18 PM

will it show pretty much the same stuff as the carfax? thanks for it BTW.

latena 12-12-2012 07:23 PM

It is my understanding that they are the same and use the same database.

Braineack 12-12-2012 07:55 PM

well if someone still has access to carfax reports, let me know. im still curious to compare.

18psi 12-12-2012 07:57 PM

use the free autocheck player

I was considering purchasing a vehicle on eBay. The eBay provided auto check was clean, 2 wrecks on the car fax. I've never had another one not match, maybe auto check missed the old accidents due to the vehicle being a little older (1998).

I wouldnt consider 98 to be old...

Yeah Autocheck seems to be hit or miss.. Showed a clean n clear title for my WRX, but once I walked into the DMV to transfer the title they said it was salvage.

Sinner.

Yeah car has a weird history and the guy seller it is a being a little odd about the history, so I want to make sure it all checks out. it's a 2009 with only 39K but he's apparently the third owner, where someone owned it for only a few before him and put 10Kmiles on it. Where the current owner has only put about that much on it in the last year of owning it.

Otherwise it looks pretty good in pics and I plan to see/but it on saturday if it checks out.

latena 12-12-2012 10:09 PM

I still think he is the second owner and that he moved. That would explain the excessive mileage, but would be interested to see a carfax on it.

looks pretty good on the outside, he said he was going to clean/detail before i see it saturday.

we'll see. Pretty sure I can get him to a price I'll be happy with.

18psi 12-12-2012 10:52 PM

white is right

Autocheck put a little flag on my miata because the original owner missed a payment back in 1995... I am the second owner, and I know for a fact nothing was wrong with my car.

dealer prep/detail = swirled to hell paint with free scratches.
