I was amazed how many 2006 - 2008 cars at dealers had been through multiple auctions and how many that were claimed to be one owner had been owned 5 to 8 times. I ended up buying an honest 3 owner car that had very clean maintenance records and all of the owners had owned the car for at least two years. The car had been CPO'd two times, so I felt comfortable that it had been quite fully looked over even though it did have multiple owners. This was much more important because it was two states away. I wouldn't have considered it because of distance but it was $4000 less expensive than I could have bought the same vehicle in my home state. A quick 6 hour drive and I saved $4000. I felt the money spent on the Carfax made the drive worthwhile. Were it not for the Carfax, I probably wouldn't have risked the drive to be disappointed.
