help interpreting CARFAX report..

Are these items to "worry" about when looking at a CARFAX report?

"Registered as corporate vehicle"

"Registered as commercial lease vehicle"

Both references show up on the same vehicle.

Thanks from a forum 3rd gen owner!!!

Sounds like a rental to me.

Two ways to look at a rental. Most folks who rent a sports car are likely to drive the crap out of it. OTOH, routine maintenance is usually pretty solid in a rental fleet.

I would look carefully at who had the title for those. When I've seen complete carfax reports they will show the name and address of the owner. Google the corporate owner and found out what type of business it is.

Check the local laws, I think a car that has been used as a rental or taxi or such has to be disclosed by the seller.
