I just ran a report on the VIN and it checked out clean. Just as I said I earlier, that I believe what the owner said about the odometer, well, seems like my feelings were correct. The mileage last reported during an emissions inspection on the car in Dallas, TX on 12/02/2003 was 108,905 miles. Bodyart27 stated that the odometer stopped working short of 109K miles this year. You may be wondering, how believable is it that he drove less than 95 miles from the date of the above inspection till the odometer died earlier this year? Well, check this out: the owner only put 2,881 miles on the car from 08/17/2002 to 12/02/2003!!!

I strongly encourage any serious buyers to contact this guy and find out the condition of the rest of the car. In all of my car buying/selling experience, I've learned to trust a seller that doesn't lie about the car's past history. Especially since this guy had the chance to lie about the broken odometer. This could end up being a killer deal for whoever gets it. Even though the A/C doesn't work, at the most it will cost $1500 to repair it (assuming the problem is with the evaporator in the dash).

If anyone here wants to check out the entire VIN report, just contact me at braverichard@hotmail.com or via PM.
