Default Bought Used C6





I recently bought a used C6 with some modifications. The previous owner wasn't much help with the details. Anyone know any methods to figure out previous owners of vettes? The car is from AR

Someone in law enforcement can run the VIN

Carfax will give you dates titles were re-issued. That will at least give you how many owners and where they lived. It will also give you a bit more history on the car.

Dealership can run the VIN and give you service history and warranty work.

Yes they do its their job and most times its no big deal if a person doesn't complain but if a person finds out the police checked their information for no reason thats the problem
