Why the data is the same

Both Carfax and Vinpanda draw from NMVTIS — the National Motor Vehicle Title Information System, a federal database maintained under the Anti-Car Theft Act. Federal law requires all US insurers, salvage yards, and junk yards to report to NMVTIS. Most state DMVs also report title and registration data.

Vinpanda uses an official NMVTIS-certified data provider with direct access to the same government databases. That means the same title brands, lien records, odometer data, and accident history — not a watered-down alternative.

The difference is price. Carfax charges $44.99 per report and uses confusing subscription bundles to extract more revenue. Vinpanda charges $14.99 per report, one time. No subscription. No account. No upsell.

Stop overpaying for the same data.
