<p>Don't allow carfax's marketing to influence you. They suck. I used them to purchase my ex-wife's NX and the frame was so twisted that in the rear, the tire on one side would rub the strut while the other side there was a 3" gap!!! Car had so many issues
it took me a year's worth of weekends to get the car even drivable. Only for her to want to sell it. Separately on another car that I bought fairly brand new from a dealer she got into about 5 separate accidents (ranging from minor that we didn't deal with
through insurance yet still had a police report all the way to repairs requiring the car to be in the body shop and thousands of dollars of repairs) and NONE of them showed up on carfax. Meanwhile my own SE-R that is now pretty much track duty only the odometer
stopped working around 150,000 miles and I can never remember the mileage that I reported the previous year so I KNOW there are odometer discrepancies.... NONE of them show up. I would go so far as to say I'd take the used car dealer or the previous owner's
word over a carfax report!<br>

<p dir="ltr">I asked months ago with no luck. Was looking for an Expedition for the expanding family. I ended up using "Auto Data Direct"
<a href="http://add123.com">add123.com</a>. My buddy used it at the same time as he was also car shopping. We were pleased with the amount of info they provided for $4 a piece. Found a few cars that appeared to have odometer issues. There's scores of cheaper
options online. Florida state also provides registration data online free, so check your state dmv. Carfax has a free service you can sign up for that provides some info. I can forward an add123 history report to you so you can see what info they provide if
you like.</p>

<div>Hi, y'all! <br>
<br>
</div>
Been kinda quiet here lately, but is there anyone with a Carfax account who might be able to run a VIN or two for me?<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>After some thinking about cars, money and the family of related issues, I realized that I could not see myself getting rid of my SE-R unless I actually had to, whereas I could see myself getting rid of the Fiat for a good-enough reason, and I'm trying
to get rid of Beige On Beige, my boring-but-comfy transportation appliance. And two cars would be replaced by...an old 911 :)<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
In SE-R news, I'm actually making progress, albeit slowly, in getting my SE-R back on the road. Thanks to Josh Sytek I got the exhaust parts I needed last year and a couple of other goodies too, like his rear STB (and I got to admire his sweet-looking VE B13)
This summer I picked up a hoist so that I can drop the engine - easier to do rod bearings - and clean up stuff in the engine compartment at the same time. Slow but steady. My only goal is to have it done by November or whenever it is too cold to work in an
unheated garage. <br>
<br>
</div>
<div>BTW, are there still any Mark Schoenholz header heat shields floating around? I acquired one years ago, I think at the Dallas convention, and then it disappeared years ago. I've always wondered where it went!<br>
