Purchase A Car Anonymously
You want to do the same as buying the house. You start your own business and you title the car in the name of the business. I recommend finding a car for which you can afford to pay cash. There are plenty of inexpensive and expensive cars available on:
When you buy the car and the seller signs the title over to you, you just tell them to make the title out in the name of your business. Again, you don’t have to start a business. You just tell the people you’re dealing with you have a business and you want the car titled in the Business Name. They might ask you what your business does so it would be a good idea to have your story straight in advance. You could put the car in the same Business Name as the house, if you bought a house. Personally, I would put my home in one Business Name and my car in another Business Name. This way, the car is never connected to the house. If you didn’t buy a house then you can just make up a Business Name just for the purchase of your car. You are free to name your business anything you want. I would probably make the name of my business sound like a respectable business and not some goofy fun name. You don’t want to draw attention to yourself. You might call your business something like “Investor Enterprises” or “Jackson Investments”. Businesses buy and own cars every day and all you need is a legitimate Business Name. You won’t need an EIN or anything else to buy a car in your Business Name.
One benefit of having your car titled in a company name is if a police officer should ever call in your license plate, he will not know who you are. If the police officer doesn’t pull you over then you are safe. License plates give the police much information about you if you title your car in your personal name. If you have a criminal history, even a misdemeanor, you may not want them to know who you are. They might just pull you over only because you have an arrest record and even if you’ve paid your debt to society, you are still a marked person. Even if you were accused of a crime and found NOT GUILTY, you will still have an arrest record unless you had the record expunged (it still might show up). If the police have no idea who you are, they are less likely to pull you over. A Police friend of mine has verified that fact. If they call in your license plate and the car is in your personal name, they will immediately have all of your information. They will know your name, address, and criminal background just from your auto license plate. If you title your car in the name of your business, all they know is the name and address of the business. You may want to rent a mailbox to use the mailbox address as the address of your car-owning business. You have you car’s registration in the address of the mailbox rather than your home address. This way, you will not have your home address on record with the license plate on your car. If someone ever comes looking for the owner of the car, they won’t come to your house. They will go to the private mailbox address you rented and NOT your home address. Of course, your car is now anonymous too.
When you have bought a car, you will need anonymous insurance on the car. The insurance company will allow you to get insurance on the car in the name of your business as well. The insurance company will ask for a driver’s license. The insurance company will then insure the car. The car is titled in the company name and the tags only show the company’s information so it is okay to give your real driver’s license to get insurance. The license plate still only reveals the information on the business that owns the car, not the driver’s insurance information.
Don’t get pulled over while driving is always sage advice. Drive correctly and stay out of the spotlight. Don’t break the law and invite the police to pull you over. Pay the taxes on the car every year and always get your tags renewed on time. Keep your business car in good standing.
