[Run ur carfax or auto check to verify the title is clean not salvaged,
good points Aaron. all i have to say is that carfax is really not 'GODs'awnser to knowing a cars past. i say that because when i had my stang i started having issues with it, we hired a proffessional mechanic to look over the whole car since me or my dad could not figure out what the problem was.
anyways the mechanic found out that part of the front of the car might have been in a collision and the previous owner simply did not report it ( might have been drunk and probly hit something)
what im saying is that what you see in yourcarfax report is what was reported to the DMV and inssurance company. it does not mean that something still did not happen
buying a used car can be a pain in the ass
