Hey guys,
I'm in the process of importing an STi from California. Seller is a good guy and I've known him for a while so no worries about anything shady. Anyways, he misplaced his pink slip and so has no physical title. He has filed for a duplicate, but apparently it takes a long time for them to actually mail you a duplicate title.
I've checked on the DMV's website and it says you can transfer a title with a request for duplicate only. Probably not the smartest thing for me to do, however time is a factor and don't want to wait the months. Can I anticipate any problems at the border? Any idea what sorts of documents they will be giving me at the DMV if we transfer the title like this?
