The fact that you didn't include any useful information on the actual cost of the car and how much they make, I'm guessing it's going to be a pretty poor decision.

Partner makes roughly 50k/yr and cost of the car to buy in Florida would be ~15k depending on condition/mileage. Same vehicle cannot be found for less than 23k in Georgia.

So someone could make up to $8k by just transporting a car one state over? Color me skeptical.

I can’t speak to that, all I can say for certain is that the make/model of the vehicle they are looking at sells for much cheaper in Florida than it does in Georgia.

Sounds like an amazing money making opportunity through arbitrage. What make/model?

A Subaru Crosstrek - ideally 2016-2019 model year range.

I just went on Autotrader and used an Atlanta zip code and a 200 mile range and there’s plenty of cars in that range with average yearly mileage for less than 23K

Maybe I just completely whiffed my search parameters then, cause last time I checked it was outrageous the difference. Thank you for your input!
