Sounds too good to be true - though the one carfax incident probably explains it...

I'd say this is the reason that it's so cheap, when an 03 is already coming up with problems in a compression test it's probably been run extremely hard, not to mention it's already been wrecked and you don't know how bad it really was or what exactly was damaged.
