Its definately worth the money to get a FULL carfax report. I recommend against anything other than carfax, especially consumer report's car history feature. I paid for the consumer reports one before buying my 94 accord off a private seller and it came up with possible odometer fraud. It listed the first mileage check in 94 at 73,000 miles. Obviously it was wrong, and they had alot of other milage records out of order. Stick with carfax.
