How do I get the title in my name? Apparently right now the Title is in the name of BMW Financial services/the BMW dealership who I purchased the car from.

I told them I would like to have the Title of the car in my name, but they said they cannot put my name on the title with a Canadian address? Not really sure how this works.

How have others overcome this problem?

Thanks.
If the title is in their name means you need to pay the full amount due and pay off the car in cash. After that, they should be able to transfer the title.

And it doesn't matter Canadian address or US address. They can put whatever address on the NJ title, get you dealer plates and send you on the way up to the border.

You'll need a recall clearance letter or WIR for passing onto the RIV though. Don't forget that.
