Big Smooth Posted December 20, 2004 Posted December 20, 2004 I'm looking to buy a specific car in the very near future, and I know Carfax occasionally offers a free VIN report through a special link. If anyone knows if there is a current free link out there somewhere, I'd appreciate it!
RossMAN Posted December 20, 2004 Posted December 20, 2004 I'm not aware of any current free CarFax promos but I did find a discount. Go to CarFax.comuse promo code 301 for 25% off orpromo code 401 for $11.99 one time report or $16.99 unlimited
RossMAN Posted December 20, 2004 Posted December 20, 2004 Possible free CarFax report, let me know if it workshttp://www.nationallemonlawcenter.com/oregon/index.htm
Big Smooth Posted December 20, 2004 Author Posted December 20, 2004 Well, I think what I'll do is ask the dealer for a copy of the CarFax (which they do claim is "clean"), and if they won't give me one, I'll get the $12 report. Thanks Ross.
RossMAN Posted December 20, 2004 Posted December 20, 2004 No problem, happy to help. So gimme all the details year, make, model and are you getting a good deal? What's gonna happen to your Sentra? :)
Big Smooth Posted December 20, 2004 Author Posted December 20, 2004 Still keeping the Sentra. The wife & I have gotten by with one car for three years, so now it's time to buy a "fun" car. Almost bought a new Miata yesterday but we had a bad experience at two dealerships. I'm almost glad that fell through, because I think we are going to get a killer deal on a silver 2001 Saab 9-3 convertible. It has 42K miles and is loaded. Supposedly a 1-owner lease return with a clean CarFax. It's being sold by a used-car broker who's a friend of my parents. They are advertising it at $16,995 which is already pretty low (a bit under Edmund's TMV) but they said they'd give it to me at $500 over cost which is $15,537! That is a seriously good deal, especially because I'm told it has 9 months/10K miles left on the factory warranty. I liked the Miata and it would probably be more reliable but this does have some advantages like much more room and luxury features. Gonna go take a look at it tonight. :)
RossMAN Posted December 20, 2004 Posted December 20, 2004 Good luck and of course we will expect pics of your "new" ride!
gitmogecko Posted December 21, 2004 Posted December 21, 2004 Around here alot of the car dealers are offering the Carfax for free. Probably just to get a buyer.
