Ya..I have been reading up on this and I guess I have to.

Question thou....I know nothing about USA tiltes..can I have them fax the title even before I purchase it...or dose the dealer have to fill my name and info on it first before its sent?????

Iam guessing no dealer would fax a title if they were not yet fully paid.

Thanks

Well, I have had dealers do for me. They do a copy of the title and sign everything over on it and then fax the copy. Nobody knows otherwise, and if you stiff them, no biggie they still have the original title with out your name on it.
But, I am guessing the majority won't do it. Luck of the draw. I take it your not paying for it until????

If you would like we could take care of everything including transport paying your GST RIV and title clearance and deliver your new ride directly to your home. If you are going to pickup your new car yourself just call Adam and he will tell you everything you have to do to get your car through US Customs and Canadian Customs. 416 243 8531 Ext 8 Adam.

Well said, i was there less than 24 hrs in US, and i picked up from NJ, i gaxed the title before i left for US and the moment u fax, call em to make sure they recieved the fax, and she/he has to say its entered in the system, thats it, get the fax copy from seller before u travel down south.

BTW nice vert, black verts looks mean, Good choice. if u r driving vette here than get the temp license tag from there local DMV, because most likely US guys will take out US tag from you than u need some temp tag to drive.

Congrats. Post pics when u get here.
