997 / Carfax Q
I found an 06 C2S that seems almost too good to be true (probably is). The one thing that is giving me pause are 7 separate incident reports of service on the vehicle. 2 note electrical; 1 notes driveability/performance. Rest are generic. Car was originally titled, serviced and resold by the dealer in question. I have asked them to print me out the entire service history on the vehicle.
Short of that, is there anything else I should do to find out if this car is possibly a lemon?

When I was looking at an 04 - I found a 'real' lemon with a Scarlet Title from CA. The previous owner really busted P's *****.. How's two (2) new engines before he made P take it back! The price was marked down accordingly, but it'd be hard to explain to the next guy.
I wouldn't worry. One could have been an interior lamp out ... second: battery in the key fob ..and the later a ck. engine light 'cause the gas cap wasn't on tight. You're lucky you have that specific dealer to check for you. A dealer here only supplied generic info when I queried them about my Boxster's history elsewhere.
I think CarFax must have been started by Dick Cheney & friends: it's only purpose for being is to keep us in constant angst and allow over reaction.
