topic of your fist post is "need a favor" :?: :!: :?:
I'm not trying to e-punk you, and you may well know some club members IRL, but it's just common courtesy to introduce yourself before asking for favors.

with that out of the way: welcome to the club.

I'm sorry, I guess that is rather rude of me. I am just in somewhat of a hurry to getthe car checked out...

My name is Nate, and I'm an aspiring WRX owner. I attended a car show by DCAWD/Winner's Tint and was impressed by all the nice Suby's I saw.

SirWilliam I sent you a PM. Thanks!

yeah, that was my reasoning for posting here...

Just asking if someone can help me out, no one is obligated by any means. Thanks again!

I think the current response from the group is that no-one is car shopping right now and Carfax isn't running any free deals at present. Of course Colin or Ben could make a liar of me....

Are you spying on me? I'm watching an auction that ends in 11 hrs...

:on2me:

I just haven't decided if I want to run a carfax report yet. 8)

I bought an unlimited 1-month carfax account roughly a week ago.
Should still be able to look up a car for the next 2 weeks or so. (I *think*)

edit : Not at home, though. I could check on it sometime tonight.

Does dcawd or carfax have a policy about this? I haven't been on here long enough to know if anyone would be upset if I posted the results on here.

I read the carfax TOS.
Technically I shouldn't post the report word-for-word. (OR derivative works... so I can't paraphrase it either)

So, post the vin, and I'll check on it later and just tell you if you should be worried or not.

If it's not clean, though, it'll be up to you if you wanna pay for the details.

(I wouldn't care if it were in person, but online I don't want to implicate dcawd in any shenanigans if carfax has a cow for posting their reports online).
