Buying Interstate? What Changes

Registration, transport and inspection tips when you shop across state lines.

Interstate deals can net you bargains but also headaches. Check your state’s transfer and import rules: some require inspections on arrival. Factor in transport costs and insurance while the car is in transit. Always get high‑resolution photos and, if possible, hire a local mechanic to inspect before paying. Make sure the VIN, engine and compliance plates match before shipping.
