Buying A Car

Cars can be purchased  from an automobile/car dealer or a private owner.  It is advisable to take someone with you who is knowledgeable about cars.

You must obtain a certificate of ownership from a car dealer or a certificate of title from an individual/private owner when you buy a car.  Michigan auto insurance must be obtained before registering the car at  the Michigan Secretary of State office.  Take certificate of title/ownership, bill of sale and proof of insurance to the Michigan Secretary of State office. You will pay (cash only) a license tax and title fees.

You also must register your car with Campus Security.
