Looking at a Lexus ISF, most places give them out free but this car is out of state and want to make sure its on the up and up before flying out there and kicking its tires. Shoot me a PM if someone has an account they wouldn't mind running a check on it for me. thanks in advance,

Just remember that pictures look a lot nicer then the actual vehicle. Interior and exterior condition does not show up in a carfax. I have been looking for a car for the past 3 months and the car looks like a 10 in pictures but in person they are between 4 and 6.5. I finally found one Saturday that was a 9.9 out of a 10 and bought it. The only reason I gave it 9.9 is because it has a small scratch on the rear bumper. Just be careful and good luck.

carfax reports are worthless - I don't even look at them because they are a false sense of security...

if it was me, I find a 3rd party mechanic to do a 'used car inspection' where ever the destination is.

Pay for a prebuy inspection from a local Shop with a good rep

Not sure if anybody was ever able to hook this up for Sparkles, but I'm in need of one now, too. Anybody in the industry down to run one and set me up with a link? :dunno:

Just google "free vin check" usually on the Supra forums people post up the most recent ones that work.

In a sense I agree, if it doesn't get reported it doesn't go up.
