QUOTE(vanaman @ Jun 26 2007, 10:21 AM)  they say they priced it cheap because it doesnt have a title. That alone seems like a huge red flag to me. At the very least I would get the VIN and check it with the DMV to verify the seller is the owner of record. If not, you'll probably have significant problems yourself getting a title for the car. If the person you are buying it from is actually the owner of record they should be able to get a replacement title for the car. Of course, YMMV on a state-by-state basis. Skip |
