i just sold a '13 WRX wagon to carmax. i had a rough time with that car, spun a rod bearing twice (that's 2 new motors, thanks subaru!), then my wife was rear ended in it while waiting for a pedestrian in a crosswalk. bare in mind this was a grocery getter/soccer mom car for us, not a hot rod.

that was the last straw, car had to go. fixed the rear end, and when my BMW wagon finally showed up i took it to carmax to unload it. i was fearful i was going to take a huge hit because of the motor replacements and the accident.

i was beyond stoked when my rep came back with a "clean carfax!" and offered the very top of what i thought i might get.

can't say i'll ever put much into a carfax moving forward.

and i definitely won't buy another subaru...
