[Supras] Need vin ran

I had the same problem only in reverse... Car fax says that there was a
salvage title issued in Iowa even though the car spent all of its life in
Michigan

When I called them they just told me to prove that there wasn't a salvage
title issued in Iowa. They said they would remove it if I could prove that.
I asked them how to prove a negative and didn't get an answer

I think it's more important to note that if the car looks like it was
wrecked, you should trust your judgement over Carfax.  The only thing Carfax
will provide you with is a false sense of security, it can't confirm that
the car was _not_ wrecked.

Case in point, I was shopping for a car a while back, found one that seemed
perfect, Carfax was perfect, but the seller was noble enough to disclose a
significant rear-end colision.

I thanked him for his honesty and moved on.
