lowside, thanks for all the info...this helps much more than the RIV site. Anyways, one question. Lets say I meet a guy in the US to buy the car, bring the car to a shipper, and have them ship it and I pick it back up in WA...do I need to 'register' or do anything at his local state DMV? or can I just get him to drive the car to the shipping yard before he takes his plates off and sign over the car? ie can I just bring the car straight to the shipper and sign over the car in the lot. (that way I don't need insurance or whatever to drive it to the yard)
