Corporate Fleet Lease Vehicle

Found a used R3 with 5,700 miles. Could someone explain what a corporate fleet lease vehicle is? Looking at the carfax report the car originated in Michigan. Could this be some sort of test vehicle that probably had the crap beat out of it already? Would you stay away form this? I wouldnt pay anywhere near what they are asking for a used car anyway...considering Ive gotten quotes on brand new ones that arent much more than that.

And look at the question at the bottom. Only 2 within 500 miles. What a crock of sh*t! I did a search on mazdausa and there are 13 within 250 miles so Im sure theres at least double that within 500.

I got my car from the same type company , your right in a sense who knows if sport rider drug it out to the track every week just to beat up times , or budget rent a car could have had it for special order vehicles to rent for the week/weekend or whatever, mine was fine till after warranty then everything went wrong with it left and right, only good thing about fleet vehicles are they have to keep up maintenance and low mileage , id get it checked out by mazda before you buy it.

I wont buy this car anyway, but it just seems a little fishy to find a used '09 already. Carfax also says dealer picked it up at an auction so its sending red flags to me. Considering rx8 depreciation, I wouldnt pay anywhere near 27k for a used one anyway. Ive seen used '08 GTs going in the low 20's, so Id maybe pay 23 or 24k for this one.

My girl and I did a carfax on a used car she was looking at from a local dealer. The carfax came back as a corporate lease, turns out the car was a rental. We walked away.

it was probably a dealer demo car. they prob drove it to auto shows and press functions..things of that nature perhaps..
