My reply:
That's such a racket! I hate carfax! I get that you need to know if a car has a negative report on carfax so that you can say "clean carfax" but $478 that's ridiculous. It would be one thing if you could rely on it being thorough or something and know a car hasn't been in an accident but it has such a narrow Buy in that 99.9% of all accidents don't end up on carfax
You may want to correct title of the thread- "mythinformation"

Your 99% assumption is definitely wrong. They are usually pretty good, but not perfect- i like to combine carfax info w Auto check as well.

The 86 911 i was looking at said it had been stolen in 1986 from the dealer then says recovered 3 months later than says a month later involved in collision declared total loss. The owner had no idea as carfax said info reported 2013 - So actually believe the info is wrong and the owner just needs to fix it, or that car really had a rough start in its life lol
