buying car in another state - hows it *supposed to* work

[sad_rocc at yahoo.com (Dan Smith)]

Definitely insure and it's a good idea to get it temporarily registered in NY in your name. Otherwise, it could get a little messy. I did that with my mk1 that I bought in Oh, cost me like $4.50 for a 30 day temp registration and I had my ins card faxed to me so that was quick too. It's not good to really mess around with that stuff, ESPECIALLY in NY. Also, get the car registered when you get home ASAP and SEND THE PLATES BACK TO HIM. I had this problem when I sold my 16v to a guy in NM, left the plates on and he never registered it. NY hunts down the owner after the car is no longer insured by said owner and demands for their plates or a big fine and their license. 

HTH,
Dan

Insure it first, your better off. And in the event you do get pulled
over it helps to prove you own it.
