I am looking at purchasing a 1994 850. The Carfax vin number report shows it was originally sold and owned in Canada, but that it has been regestered in the USA for several years now. I am going to view and test drive it tonight.

The owner says the cars odometer is in Km, but the Carfax report it says it has 274,728 MILES. Is it just really 274,000 km (170,154 miles) or does the odometer have to be converted when the car is brought over? There are no odometer readings from when it was in Canada, only from California DMV. Could it potentially cost me money to have to convert the car's odometer from the metric system? Could this be a problem with resale or anything else in the future?
