Ok, I kind of feel like a dumbass now, but maybe not. According to the carfax that I got, everything I said above is true. But after looking at it closer, if I took the date of the salvage title, and moved it up 2 years to November of 2002, everything else fits into place. The mileage, and the dates would all fall in place correctly. And the more I think about it, that's around the time that I heard that the kid totaled it.
So I can draw one of 2 conclusions.
#1 everything said in my first post.
#2 Some pallywacker at the DMV screwed up the date by 2 years, and basically ruined the Vehicle history report of this car. Of course my first reaction when I saw it was like "wtf mate".
I guess either one is possible, but the second one seems more likely. But I still stand by my point that it's probably a good idea to get a history report before you buy a car.
This is what showed up for my GSX.
