Tiny Clark Posted May 27, 2004 Share Posted May 27, 2004 I'm the second owner of my subie, and Carfax showed only one owner. Maybe you have to take this info with a grain of salt, just like everything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueTrain Posted May 27, 2004 Share Posted May 27, 2004 ya, some cats over at NASIOC were talking about this. A few of them ran VINs of vehicles that had been in accidents, totaled, etc.. all had been reported yet they didn't show up on the carfax check.. so, ya.. CARFAX isn't 100 % reliable..

teppichkopf Posted May 27, 2004 Share Posted May 27, 2004 So if a car can be totaled and not show up on Carfax, can a car be fine and Carfax show it as being in an accident? Generally if a car is in a major event it gets a salvage or rebuilt title. Is there anyway for someone to take a slavage/rebuilt title and get a clean title for it?

polish_007 Posted May 27, 2004 Share Posted May 27, 2004 I ran a Carfax on mine and it shows that it had two owners and it was sold to a dealer and I bought it at the auction very recently. All good. 1997 OBW 4S3bg6851v6612056 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edrach Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 Cool, free carfax info is still active!! I just ran a car that I posted in the Marketplace forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earlofphoenix Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 I just ran mine, and while there's a few interesting things in there, it looks all good. Too bad my subbie needs some work, and me with no $$. As to cleaning a title, supposedly, that's fairly easy, by a car with a salvage title in one state, and register it in another state, supposedly it'll just show clean at that point.
