[nota]

no idea how it works in the frozen north
but each state makes it's own rules here
some are just pay a fee and get a tax number

some with a dealers license here in south fla
with allow you to go with them for a fee
there are ads on craig's list for that

most nice cars are retained by the dealer
auctions are for the ruff or problem cars or over stock dumping
and you have no chance to do more then look and listen
no PPI or test drives
my older brother was a manager/salesman
