I think that's the case... I have noticed that the BMW and Mercedes dealers around here just don't keep used cars older than a couple of years. Limited space, I guess, and the kind of customers they want to attract aren't the ones interested in cars too old to have a warranty. >From Kaleb's Carfax, it looks like it could be one owner who just moved a couple times and faithfully kept up the address changes with the DMV in both California and Oregon. I may go look at the car and see if the records, if any, bear that out. (Dealer stamps for service, hopefully.) Thanks, Kaleb!
