Default AZ Carmax ISF

Good afternoon,
VIN: JTHBP5C26B5008686
Not sure anyone's looking for a USB ISF, there's a used one at the carmax in PHX. Just a heads up it's been through some stuff, I would know. Nothing reported via "clean" carfax ect ect.
Just a heads up for those enthusiast who have their eye one it or whatever. Its a really good repair but still repaired, has seen the track more than a few times, mostly sideways.

Thanks.

I just bought my 2011 from Carmax in Pleasanton, CA. I had a rather good experience with the whole process. I am a auto tech, so I inspected the whole car thoroughly, especially for any signs of accidents.

Carmax advertises they sell only "no hit" cars. Guess the body shop nor insurance co. reported the repairs to Carfax??

Nothing at all More of a heads up if someone was looking for a car that wasn't tracked & what not.

That is correct, paid out of pocket; No report.

I just want to bump this thread up because car is up for sale by private seller in Arizona and I don’t want someone buy it without knowing the story behind it. I almost bought this car unsean couple months ago but after seeing some closeup picture I noticed some paint peeling off on bumper and owner claimed that is bad paint job from factory . I didn’t believe him and didn’t buy the car. Car is still for sale and nothing show in carfax.

Someone should make a thread and keep a database by VIN # so no one falls for anything.

Lmao $39k for that? What a RIP-OFF. You can buy a 2012 in mint condition for less miles than that.

This was posted in October 2016. FYI.

However, an actual mint USB 2011 with those miles will probably still bring close to that I would imagine, values haven't changed much in 14 months.

Gotcha, someone posted a 2011 today for $35k for around the same mileage.

Thanks to this thread, I was also about to buy this sight unseen.
Track time I am fine with, shady off-the-books repair work is a deal breaker for me.
