Several years ago, I was in the process of purchasing a 2006-2008 Corvette and found one online. The owner had stated the vehicle had an insurance claim due to a rock flying up and cracking the windshield. This seemed reasonable because the car was equipped with GM's Heads Up Display. This requires a special laminated windshield that generally costs $1200. So I could understand making a claim to get that repaired. I ran the Carfax and asked the owner to confirm the date of the incident. His dates didn't match the Carfax, so I did some additional research and obtained the Sheriff's police report of the incident.
It turned out that the car had been in a minor fender bender in a parking lot and the back of the car was damaged. The police report had both the owner and his wife listed as occupants and there was a basic sketch of the incident. When I confronted the owener about the information, he flat out denied the incident occured and that there had to be a mistake. Needless to say I didn't end up purchasing the vehicle because the seller was clearly dishonest and who knows what else he was hiding. If it hadn't been for the Carfax, I likely would have purchased that vehicle. I always get the Carfax!
