You aren't. Those who have tried have not succeeded for the most
part. Sure, maybe a few of them will find someone stupid enough to buy
a car that is worthless to them, but most won't. Mexicans know the law,
and the consequences of violating it.

You are right in that there is a market. But no one will by a car
they can not register or use. And by law, a car they acquire in the
manner you describe is WORTHLESS to them, as they can NOT legally use
it. That is the short and simple of it.

I was not being snide. You asked for opinions. I gave you mine,
based on your proposal and the law. That you didn't like it is another
story. And I was sincere in asking you to try it, and tell us how it
works out, as I personally would love to know. I also don't feel any
particular need to commit criminal acts to have a sense of "life" in me.
