As a non-resident, you would have a great deal of problems with the issues of a car. Buying one -- not so difficult. Any seller is going to be happy to take your money. Registering and licensing it?? Big problems! You need a permanent address in the USA. Insuring it? Same issues. We have at least one member on here who has jumped through many (expensive and frustrating) hoops to own her own vehicle in the USA while a non-resident. She will probably chime in.

Overall, unless you are planning to be here more than the usual 90-day visit, it doesn't pay to go through this hassle. By the time you conquer all the problems, it would be time to go home -- and then there's selling it at the end of your stay.
