Let's change this up a little.
Perhaps our members can tell of an experience that
they are witness to concerning buying or selling a car.

Ok, I will start.

Years ago bought a used BMW E24 M6.
Price was good, looked nice, damn, mighta found a
California cream puff car.

Turned out the seller hasn't paid his expensive California state tax on the
M6.
Not a problem, I thought.

End result was I had to spend 600+ dollars to get the car out of the state.
As I learned that day, the government ALWAYS gets their money.

Deadbeat, promising, slick salesman excuse saved me exactly 0.0 dollars.
The California DMV man just told me "sorry to hear that dude, thattle be 652 dollars please.

What's your story?
