There are some pertinent details that can be acquired through Carfax, and the like.

I managed a high-end European only body shop, and of course lots of stuff never made it into a Carfax history (even totaling cars....adjusters, tow companies, and body shops can all be less than honest.)

That being said, I would hardly say it's worthless. ...Especially from the dealer/wholesaler point of view.

Using it in concert with your own inspection (if you're qualified to do so) is a great way to increase your fact finding.
