2001 Turbo Carfax - last record 12/2/03 at 2,010 miles. Somehting fishy?

I have been looking for a Turbo forever and someone just came to me with an '01 for 67k that has 37k miles on it. While there are no issues in the carfax the last record show on it is when it was registered on 12/2/02 with 2010 miles. The car has 37k miles though so shouldn't there be other registration records? Also, shouldn't there be records for services that were done on the car since it was a leased car? Something must be fishy right? Thanks

The vin is WP0AB29901S686963 in case any of you are wondering. Thanks

If you actually post the carfax report it makes it easier to comment.

Tell us what you know about this vehicle Have Questions? Please visit our Help Center at www.carfax.com . First Owner When the first owner(s) obtains a title from a Department of Motor Vehicles as proof of ownership. Lease When someone leases a car from a dealer, the dealer actually sells the vehicle to a leasing company. The leasing company then collects payments for the vehicle from the new owner for 24, 36, 48 or more months. A leasing company can be an independent car dealer or a car manufacturer. Manufacturer Recall Automobile manufacturers issue recall notices to inform owners of car defects that have come to the manufacturer's attention. Recalls also suggest improvements that can be made to improve the safety of a particular vehicle. Most manufacturer recalls can be repaired at no cost to you. New Owner Reported When a vehicle is sold to a new owner, the Title must be transferred to the new owner(s) at a Department of Motor Vehicles. Ownership History CARFAX defines an owner as an individual or business that possesses and uses a vehicle. Not all title transactions represent changes in ownership. To provide estimated number of owners, CARFAX proprietary technology analyzes all the events in a vehicle history. Estimated ownership is available for vehicles manufactured after 1994 and titled solely in the US including Puerto Rico. Dealers sometimes opt to take ownership of a vehicle and are required to in the following states: Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Ohio, Oklahoma and South Dakota. Please consider this as you review a vehicle's estimated ownership history. Title Issued A state issues a title to provide a vehicle owner with proof of ownership. Each title has a unique number. Each title or registration record on a CARFAX report does not necessarily indicate a change in ownership. In Canada, a registration and bill of sale are used as proof of ownership.

See the glossary for more information.Airbag Deployment Occurs when the driver, passenger or side airbag has been used or deployed during a crash or other incident. If an airbag has been deployed, new or recycled airbags must be installed for the airbag system to return to operation.Frame Damage In most cases, a vehicle is inspected for frame damage after an accident or other incident. All levels of accidents from minor to severe can cause frame damage and in most cases it can be repaired. If frame damage is reported, having this vehicle's frame inspected before purchase is recommended.Odometer Rollback If a more recent odometer reading is less than an older reading, then the odometer may have been tampered with and "rolled back".Manufacturer Recall Automobile manufacturers issue recall notices to inform owners of car defects that have come to the manufacturer's attention. Recalls also suggest improvements that can be made to improve the safety of a particular vehicle. Most manufacturer recalls can be repaired at no cost to you.Basic Warranty Most manufacturers offer a basic warranty for new vehicles. These warranties vary by manufacturer and typically last for a certain amount of time and/or a set number of miles.Salvage Title A Salvage Title is issued on a vehicle damaged to the extent that the cost of repairing the vehicle for safe operation exceeds its fair market value; or a vehicle that has been declared a Total Loss by an insurer or other state or jurisdiction. Some states treat Junk titles the same as Salvage but the majority use this title to indicate that a vehicle is not road worthy and cannot be titled again in that state. The following ten States also use Salvage titles to identify stolen vehicles - AZ, FL, GA, IL, MN, NJ, NM, NY, OK and OR. Junk Title A Junk Title is issued on a vehicle damaged to the extent that the cost of repairing the vehicle for safe operation exceeds its fair market value; or a vehicle that has been declared a Total Loss by an insurer or other state or jurisdiction. Some states treat Junk titles the same as Salvage but the majority use this title to indicate that a vehicle is not road worthy and cannot be titled again in that state.Rebuilt/Reconstructed Title A Rebuilt/Reconstructed vehicle is a salvage vehicle that has been repaired and restored to operation. These vehicles are often severely damaged before they are rebuilt and refurbished parts are typically used during reconstruction. In most states, an inspection of the vehicle is required before the vehicle is allowed to return to the road. Loss Due To Fire Title The vehicle sustained major damage due to fire. In most states, fire damage titles are issued when the cost of repairing the vehicle for safe operation exceeds its fair market value.Flood Damage Title States issue flood titles when a vehicle has been in a flood or has received extensive water damage. Hail Damage Title The vehicle sustained major damage due to hail. In most states, hail damage titles are issued when the cost of repairing the vehicle for safe operation exceeds its fair market value.Manufacturer Buyback or Lemon A vehicle, generally with major problems, that has been repurchased by or had its price renegotiated with the manufacturer. The specific requirements for vehicles that qualify as a "lemon" vary by state but most states mark an official document or issue a Manufacturer Buyback title for Lemon Law vehicles. In addition, most manufacturers will, as a courtesy, buy back some vehicles that do not meet Lemon Law specifications; these buybacks may or may not be recorded on the title.Not Actual Mileage Title When the seller certifies, under the Truth-in-Mileage Act, that the odometer reading does not reflect the vehicle's actual mileage. This may occur because the odometer was tampered with, broken, or replaced.Exceeds Mechanical Limits A vehicle with a 5-digit odometer cannot accurately track mileage after 99,999 miles because the odometer rolls over. This title is the result of a seller certifying under the Truth-in-Mileage Act, that the odometer reading EXCEEDS MECHANICAL LIMITS of the odometer.Standard Equipment Power Windows, Power Steering, Air Conditioning, AM / FM Cassette, Power Brakes, Tilt Wheel, 6-digit Odometer Safety Options 4 wheel ABS, Dual air bags front and sides/active (manual) belts

Ususual, but no flags. It appears to be a two owner car - one owner off lease. If you can get records from the previous owner and a good PPI that you're probably okay. There should be more records, but it looks like the car has spent it's life in NV without any unsual activity. Push to get records from the previous owner. I would look very closely at this car for problems, but the fact that the last owner kept the car for over 3 years suggest no problems. The only piece of info I'd like to know is why he sold. Need to get the recall done, but not a big deal. Dell, any comments on the title practices of NV?

In Nevada, salvage title must be listed as such, and to register any car the DMV has to physically check the VIN in person (you actually have to bring your car to a DMV center), so difficult state to conceal fraud.
