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)

No, they just sign the title over to you on the back of it.

I've got similar question, what if the guy who selling the car still owes money to the bank,and the bank has the title on that car and will release it one month after he'll pay it off with the money he'll get for the car. Can he drive it over the border and sell it to me here(thru notary or some thing like that)
Thank you!

No. The safest way of doing it is rather than paying the seller, directly pay the bank who holds the title. But there are no guarantees when there is no physical title in front of you. The seller cant do anything in Canada.
