The VIN would show up clean as in not stolen, and the locals may issue you a new state title with winch you can get US plates. I see local dealers telling Canadians to set up a Montana LLC so they can buy the US cars which the manufactures say can only be sold to US residents as the same car costs a bunch more in Canada.

In Canada the plates don't stay with the car like they do in the USA. Here your registration and insurance go with the owner, so when I sell a car to someone here, I take my plates off it, and the new owner gets new plates for it when they register and insure it. I have seen rental companies that leave the Canadian registration/plates on their vehicles even though they are only used in the states, but one day that is going to come back to haunt them. There is a loophole in every system, there always is, but you'd have to REALLY want one of those cars that's not allowed down there to find it.
