I was looking for a used Miata. I had one a few years ago and had to sell it. I thought I would buy the Car Fax application for use in my search. I had an owner in Binghamton, NY, who was selling a 1999. The car looked like it was in great shape. There were minor scratches, the top was in great shape, and it was priced to sell. Before I took the 85 mile trip, I ran the vin number, and low and behold, the car had been totaled in November 2012 from a front end collision. I addressed the facts with the current owner, and of course, He knew nothing about it. He said that there was nothing on the title about it being totaled. Being a woman, I know he tied his best to give me a song and a dance of him not knowing anything about it. I told him you must think I stupid. The paint job has be to so new that you could still smell it. I told him that practice is called title washing, and as soon as I register the car in the state of PA, it will be labled as a R title. NO THANK YOU. Thank You Car Fax. You saved me a big headache, i'VE ATTACHED THE CAR FAX HISTORY REPORT FOR MY PROOF
