I think it would depend on how the state issues license plates. When I lived in Pennsylvania, the plates are assigned to the owner, so if you were to replace your car, you could keep the same plate for the new one (though it's generally easier to get a new plate). In states like California, the plate is assigned to the car, so when you sell the car, the plate goes with it. Not sure how Georgia operates, but if they assign to the owner, Carfax may not be able to capture that data, as it would be constantly changing.
