Buying Stolen Car and Swapping VIN Plates?
Looking to get a Corvette Z06 or 911 S soon, not really willing to shell out those ridiculous MSRP prices (+ dealer markups) or the bogglingly inflated used market.
Don't think I'll run into much issues when pulled over either given I'm a tall white guy in nice clothes, they won't bother to look too deeply into the VIN and title.
I think I can get a Striker off FB Marketplace for like $15K and then a salvaged car shell of the same make for like $10K, giving me a $150K ish car for just $25K.
Thoughts?

srsly tho consider if you're willing to risk legalities for the shortcut of having a nice car - crazy rationalization going on here
Dawg this is Wall Street Oasis, go to reddit or something
Engaging in such activities is illegal and unethical. Swapping VIN plates and purchasing stolen vehicles are serious crimes that can lead to severe legal consequences, including imprisonment. Additionally, this behavior undermines the integrity of the automotive market and can harm innocent parties, such as previous owners or future buyers.
If you're looking to purchase a high-end car like a Corvette Z06 or a Porsche 911 S, consider saving up, exploring financing options, or waiting for the market to stabilize. There are also legitimate ways to find deals on used cars, such as auctions or certified pre-owned programs. Avoid shortcuts that could jeopardize your future and reputation.

Don't. a C5 is cheap, I dropped one in a mostly stock NA on the parkway despite it being able to do 180.
They are selling Z06 below sticker now. C8s are just everywhere
How's the M8 holding up? I kind want to get a '22 used, seeing for like 70-80k. Think it's worth?
I had it for 3 years. Small issues like coolant leaks which only became a problem once (covered under warranty) and the window regulators freezing up.
I moved onto a new AMG GT55 coupe I got discounted
