I bought some CarVX Japanese VIN checks on some cars, I am looking to get one more to check a different theory.

CarVX is like Japan’s version of our Carfax in the USA. It’s a good solid chunk of information and a paid version definitely provides you a bunch of information about your car but just like Carfax it is possible that it isn’t 100%. I personally have had a few cars that were in an accident but Carfax pulls it up clean. It is cool to understand how this data is collected and entered for CarVX to be able to retrieve it.

I checked the Kurata car that KeyLex is still hanging on to PG6SA-100100 > See the report here 1992 registration year grade says AZ-1. This is the only car I checked that is still in Japan. The next three have been exported to the USA.

I checked PG6SA-103766 report here 1994 registration year, grade says Mazdaspeed and has mazdaspeed appearance of black and correct matching red color so it is plausible

I checked PG6SA-100484 report here 1993 registration year, cannot be a “real” M2-1015 but this check shows it as an M2-1015

I checked PG6SA-100571 report here 1992 registration year, put together as a Mazdaspeed but cannot be a “real” one. Auctioned twice in 5 days with two different inspection sheets, first showing Mazdaspeed in the grade field but the second auction sheet left it blank with less details and the CarVX check grade says it is just AZ-1 (probably default if nothing is entered? It also seems like whatever is the most recent data takes precedent into the VIN check.)
