Okay mah friends I have a question for my brother, I hope y'all can help....
My brother wants a sportscar, and try as I might, I can't convince him to get a 914 - he's been a muscle car guy for a long time, and eventually got tired of it and switched to small sportscars (like me and the 914), HOWEVER, instead if taking the wonderful road to crusty - rusty - leaky - squeeky P-cars, he, uhh, I can't even say it... He wants a Nissan 300Z..... sigh He's a bit older than me, and has had a 280Z in the past, but now has found a 300Z in Ohio. We're in NY, so how does he buy it and drive it back home? Are there temporary plates, or temp registrations? If not, we'll have to use my Jeep to tow it back from canton to Rochester. He said he'd pay for me gas, but that could cost more than flying there and driving it back. I've actually driven his 280, and it was a well-sorted out car, and real fast too, and the 300's that he's looking at (V6 5 speeds) look real sporty and modern (compared to a 914 (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif) ) and the one he wants is actually a cool car. Any opinions on the 300Z's? Is there anyone here from Canton who may be able to take a look at it for him? He's already driven my 914, and likes it, but it's a little too 'spartan' for him. I guess he wants to have a car he can just get in and drive instead of working on all the time - what fun is that?? Sheesh.. |

You might also be able to take an NY plate of one of yours/his cars and take it to Ohio, put it on the Z and drive it home. If he's buying it, you'll have a bill of sale and the car title signed over to him.
When I sold my SVX, it was to a guy in Ohio. He brought a plate from another of his cars and just put it on the back of mine. He had a bill of sale and the title to the car. Unless the NY DMV/state popo is a bunch of total fascists, I can't see you having any huge difficulty with this. But probably also a good idea to not break the sound barrier on the drive back to NY (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) |
