Default Looking to buy an s2000, but I just ran a CarFax!

Hi, I am a new member on the forum, because I am a soon to be s2000 owner, however, as i was looking for one from a used dealership (ford), i saw the carfax car history (thanks minh) and the carfax came out pretty good, no accidents, no salvage title nothing reported, CLEAN, however i noticed that it was in a Auto Auction in PA (im in VA) and the auction listed it as a "dealer vehicle" should i be worried about this because I really want to get this car as it is a good price. thanks in advance you guys have been great.

Seems odd that the car would be auctioned if its new - what are the car's details?

Which part of VA you are at?

Rockville Mitsubishi has a black AP1 (I think it's a 2003) for sale with about 17000 miles. Dunno how much they are asking. I know the previous owner traded that car for an 2006 NFR. Maybe worth a look?

heres the definition that carfax gave
http://www.carfax.com/Definitions/Glossary.cfm

Auto Auction - Auto auctions provide CARFAX with odometer readings for vehicles bought and sold at auction. Approximately 31% of used cars sold at dealerships are purchased at auto auctions.
