I can attest to this personally. I owned a Dodge Stealth for 8 years that I personally had SIX collisions with! (only one was my fault of course) It had already been in at least two accidents before I bought it. So it was involved in 8 accidents with 6 reported to the insurance company. Each time I got it fixed professionally, until the Insurance company dropped me and gave me a generous settlement offer of $3000 and let me keep it when the last accident nearly totaled it. I put a door and fender on myself on that one and drove it another 4 years. I know, it was a moving target! At the time I got rid of it, Carfax reported only three accidents. I was starting to fear that the car would die in the dead of winter because it had so many miles on it and had been in so many accidents. So, I traded it in for my Crossfire three years ago (got $800, it had 275K miles on the original engine). Yesterday I looked it up on Autocheck and found out it is still in operation here in Michigan as of March of this year. BUT I HAS A CLEAN HISTORY!!!! No reported accidents! It sold at an auction in Ohio and must have got Title-Washed. I could not believe it.

I learned two things from this, (1) don't trust Carfax or Autocheck, and (2) Dodge Stealth's are one tough frakin' car that just won't die!
