I have the Consumerguide Check, which is just like CarFax, and everything shows up clean on it. Last Mileage was 130000, and Last Registration was in 2002.

For the Supra, everything is clean, it's on exempt status for mileage.

For the 240, it has one accident reported in 1993, and showed up in auction in 1995, and after that is clear. Last mileage was in 2003 at 100432.

It's funny they list common prices of repairs and the clutch is listed at $350. I have yet to find a shop around here in Orlando that will do it for less then $500.

What is a carfax?What is a Consumerguide Check?

Is this something available to me (I presume for a fee)?

Is it only available to professionals?Please let me know,Alora

tangalora:CarFax and ConsumerGuide are both VIN history checks. Basically they have a database of events that have happened to your car based on the VIN code. These events include wrecks, auction appearances, sales, title/registration, emissions, etc. Anyone can pull it, just have to pay a fee. CarFax is the well known one, and the consumerguide one is the same, just not as well known. I picked it over carfax cause it showed more records for my car then carfax did. The carfax website has been listed, and the consumerguide one is at:

kyle1911:your vin isn't showing up for some reason. I'm not sure if it's the system or it's typed in wrong. I'll try again tommorrow to make sure it's not the system, but check ur vin.

Alex7542:It lists it as a left side impact with another vehicle in 1993. Also forgot to mention that the Supra showed up at auction in 1997. It's not listed as a red flag, just not the usual title/registration/emission stuff.
