Hello internet users. Someone in my family is looking to buy a car and wanted some recommendations for a private one. They are looking to buy new, and need Android Auto and CarPlay. I know all new cars suck for privacy by default, but I was hoping someone here could offer some insight as to which cars can be made better and what cars offer the best experience with minimal compromises on privacy and no subscription bs. I also have a Home Assistant instance that they can access remotely if there are any cars that can work well with that.

    OP I got you. This is actually a fairly straightforward process, I’m in the middle of titling a vehicle in this manner currently.

    Form an anonymous New Mexico LLC before you do anything else, google it it’s not difficult. There are a million registered agents advertising their “anonymous” corporate filing, but make sure you file a New Mexico LLC- they don’t require member’s names to be public or registered with the state at all, meaning your HumanPerson Ventures LLC is completely, entirely separate from you.

    Should cost $50-$200 on average for that service. Some companies only charge you the state filing fee, which is $50 for NM. After you have your company, the rest is simple: just purchase a used car, from a private seller, for cash. Do not present ID when asked, stating that you’re purchasing on behalf of a company and as such will be titling the vehicle in the company’s name. When you do the title transfer, just write the name of the company where you’d put your name on the title.

    Wala, private car.

    EDIT: I see you weren’t asking for this sort of privacy, but I’m leaving this here regardless. It’s good information to have. This is for the “random guy with road rage knows a cop and runs your plate” threat model lol. Now, when your plate is run, it will show the company and the company address as the owner info.
