Paying cash vs wire transfer

[ADY]

Have the seller meet you with the car at your bank and request that your Bank write the seller a certified check. With all the anti-money laundering rules and regs, and risk of handing out large sums of cash you will not find a bank that will hand over anything over $10k typically. Its also a safe place to conduct the transaction b/c you have the seller on the banks cameras if the car ends up having title issues.
