Good luck driving it off the lot without insurance & registration, and good luck getting insurance or registration without a driver’s license at a dealership. Maybe that would fly at some shady used lot, but there’s not a single new car dealership in the country that would do that deal.
Idk if it has changed, but they used to require you take delivery on the property where it would be used. That meant you’d either need to negotiate a free delivery, or pay to have the dealership deliver the vehicle to the private property where it would be used. There’s a special registration for that, it doesn’t just stay unregistered, especially if financing is involved.
You don’t need insurance in my state, for a while you could drive newly acquired cars without plates in CA, but I think they recently closed that loophole.
Yea they plastic temp plates now that you legally need on new cars before driving it off the lot. Lots dbags out there just never putting on their metal plates on new cars and driving like jackasses, that’s why.
A new car dealership isn’t going to jeopardize their vehicle sales license for some dirt deal with an undocumented crazy person. Maybe if you had some muscle, and you kicked them down an extra $15,000-$20,000, then they might try to find a workaround, but not for some $2000 profit deal. A single deal is nothing to a new car dealership, they’re swimming in money.
Edit: they don’t want you to pay cash anyways. They make as much or more money on the financing as they do on the car.
They have negotiated deals with the banks that power their in-house financing. They get a substantial kickback from the bank for referring you to them.
Technically any legal adult can buy a car; driving it legally is another matter.

You show up with a trailer and tell them it won’t be used on public roads.

Maybe that’s a state law or something related to new cars? People buy as-is used cars in private sales and trailer them home all the time.

I just assumed he was paying cash and buying from a private party.
If you pay cash they might overlook a few things.

Isn’t financing usually done with a bank? I know mine was, and the interest certainly isn’t the price of the car.
