Can someone get me the carfax on : 1G1FP2186KL146483
Needing to get another IROC since mine was crushed by a semi, this one has 61,000 miles on it and looks perfect.. but sounds too good to be true, it says it has 15 records on it.. does anyone have an account on carfax and could possibly email me the results at ssjflint@bellsouth.net ?

There are several sources for car history
- State DMVs. Very slow to respond. They only have details on registrations and brands - when a car has major damage a brand is added. Also, they will only have data for one state - if the car has moved they can't help you. Fees vary by state.
The best source is Carfax. They collect data from over 8000 sources - and still they don't have everything. However, it's the most comprehensive source.
For free - since it costs the DMVs and Carfax - nobody provides it for free.
When dealers buy Carfax reports they pay a price that allows them to redistribute the report - so ask the dealer. You'll find thousands for free on Cars and AutoTrader.
The consumer unlimited account specifically states reports can not be distributed/shared as you requested. If caught, the account holder will be charged $19.99 per report.
So - essentially you don't want anybody to cheat you on the car - but you are quite willing to cheat Carfax.
