My son desperately wanted a C6 Corvette. After running several by me he discovered a great deal on a 2006 model in Ohio. The only problem? We live in North Carolina... After telling him I would not co-sign for a car sight unseen he planned to hop in his car to travel straight there, inspect, purchase and rush back--all within 24 hours. I then recalled Carfax from all the commercials and said we should do our due diligence before spending all this time. This was the first time I ever used Carfax or any service of this type. We discovered the Vette had been in a serious accident with frame damage just a few years before. My son immediately realized dad was right... When we found the next viable candidate we did our research in advance. He was able to get the car of his dreams--a 2008 Corvette--knowing its history. This included a first-year incident that deployed the air bag. With this information we inspected the vehicle knowing it was repaired properly and did not sustain major damage. We saved approximately $8,000 having this history. Thanks Carfax!
