Everyone
- A valid driver's licenseNot expired. Buying with someone else? Bring theirs too.
- Insurance on this carYou need it before you drive home. Call your insurance company with the car's VIN (it's on the listing), then upload the new card on your deal page or bring it with you.
- Your down paymentCash, a personal or cashier's check, a bank transfer (ACH), or a debit or credit card. Cards have a processing fee.
Registering somewhere other than your license address?
The MVD asks for two proofs of the address where the car will be registered. Any two of these work, as long as they show your name and that address. A PO box doesn't count.
