GA plates stay with the original owner, not the car. So driving with the PO plates is potentially a problem if you get a Trooper having a bad day.
Dealers now issue Temp plate with expiration dates (30 days). Not so with private purchases as far as I know. If the GA DMV told you they do not issue Transit (or temp) plates, my suggestion is just hand write "GA Private Purchase - In Transit" on a blank plate. Carry the paperwork and be on your way to enjoying Porsche ownership.
Another option, depending on where the car is, stop by a DVM office and talk to someone in person, it always depends on who you talk to at the DMV  maybe they will give you a Temp plate for the trip.
Where is the car located? |
Very helpful. I’ll be purchasing in in Norcross. I called a few local dealers hoping to find a person willing to help a guy out. No luck.
