So my friend wants to give his car to another friend as a gift. What all documentation needs to be completed?
Obviously Friend 1 has to sign the title. What comes after that?
If you transfer the title, sales tax will need to be paid on the SPV. As long as he can trust the friend to get insurance and pay the registration, he can just keep the title in his name.
That sounds dangerous. You own the car, you have liability. I'd give the car to him outright, even paying tax and registration, maybe even a year of liability insurance, if the friend is truly destitute.
If I'm loaning the car, as you suggest, I'm paying the registration and insurance. No way my car is out there with another driver, and I'm not covered.
