There was nothing recorded by carfax from 2003 - 2007 (4years!).  This means that we simply have no information on the car for that period.

We do know that the mileage was 160,043 miles as of March 2008. That works out to approx. 32,000miles/year! Since the average mileage of US driven cars is 10,000 - 15,000 miles/year, we can conclude that this car was driven 2x as much as usual. I personally wouldn't consider buying the car, unless it is dirt cheap.

@ Kevyngbash,

Please be aware that carfax is JUST A GUIDE! Not necessarily a total/sole decider. Insurance companys salvage cars for various reasons. Theft, Accident etc. In case of accident, you might want to consider what type of accident. If its minor enough that you can live with, then by all means consider it especially at attractive price.

HOWEVER don't PAY CLEAN TITLE MONEY FOR SALVAGE VEHICLE!. Theres nothing wrong wt salvage cars if you ask me as long as drivability and functionality is not compromised.

I got news for you, NOT ALL ACCIDENT SHOW UP ON CARFAX!. Only accidents REPORTED TO THE INSURANCE COMPANY. If someone decided to "eat" the repair cost after an accident (because monthly insurance payment will go up after an accident, if you report and insurance company repairs the vehicle). It will not show up!

Many people do that. a case in point is the Corolla in the earlier post. it was MIA (missing in action) for 4yrs! Hmmm thats a looooonnng time. Same as the Honda. There was a 4yr lapse. I'm not saying there is a problem but make you wonder.

Not saying carfax is bad, however the true picture is what you see in front of you. Take your mecahnic, listen to engine, look underneath, look inside the headlight area and behind the grill area inside (its not always totally straight after repair), look all the doorline (the little hole left between fron fender and door, the space between front and back door, space between bonnet and fender etc) Is the paint peeling, matching, rough, shining more that the other side?

In short, get a "taste" of the car. Walk or make offer. Follow your instinct!. They are mostly right. Good luck

yeah promise i was sort of wondering what happen between 2004 and 2008
for the honda? is it possible that the owner then did,nt make a report on
any thing? what do you think happen in those years? or was it just parked.

@ df2006,

I don't think that the car was parked because the mileage went up. Looks like the vehicle moved from one state to the other. Might just drove the car without updating the registration at the new state (Especially in the East coast where states seem to be closer to each other).
What is importatnt is that when the car comes you, look at the mileage on the odometer that its not lower that what has been reported before on the carfax. Thats when you know that its not been falsified.

Also try and do your math on the average driven mileage/year and see if it all adds up. Most big dealership don't do hanky panky because they have too much to lose. its small time dealers that will buy at auctions and roll back mileage trying to pass it off as a low mileage car.

At the reported mileage, i will say "No shaking" Hondas easily pass 200,000 miles with no issues. Just keep up your maintenance. Oil change, service, etc DON'T CUT CORNERS!

Good luck. Now go out there and get all the toto waiting for you  Grin You deserved it all along only she dey yanga. But now,  Yanga no more. Una don arrive na  Grin
