Look for cars in Santiago or Moca and if you have good Dominican friends, have them go in and negotiate the car you want, Once deal is made then and only then show your gringo face to finalize deal
i think this particular agency mostly sells new cars, no?

I think Felix Motors in POP is OK. Most of their cars are direct imports from which you can search Carfax, but they have some local cars too. If you go there ask for Felix (not the owner) - he's a nice guy and seems to be honest.
Gorgon is right - in that there are businesses here that specialize in rolling back mileage - It takes special connectors and sometimes requires you pull out the instrument cluster to get to the quick disconnect connectors in the rear of the panel, but that is not an overly complicated task.
Most Japanese and Korean cars store their mileage in an EEPROM chip soldered to the instrument panel circuit, not the car's main computer. BMW & Mercedes make it the most difficult to change but they can be changed too.
You need a variety of software programs from the car manufacturer or after market software may work for some cars - and a plethora of different connectors which connect to the either the serial or USB port of your laptop.

My rule of thumb is if a car isn't a trailer queen or was unable to be driven for a long period (that might be a clue).actually, i have come to find that the guys who do not roll back mileage are the exceptions. i have been into almost every dealership between POP, Santiago, Moca, and La Vega...very few are giving true mileages. i can name those who i am sure are giving ALMOST true numbers, but i will not name names. most of the guys selling K5, Y20, N20, and LPI, are a bunch of comedians with the rollbacks..
