So far I’m 0-3 for the feelers I’ve contacted. They all want to get me to come in.
Are they your local shops? You need to look nationally.

or just go to a local dealer and do the paperwork through them
Sorry to tell you but there isn't a dealer that will do another dealers paperwork for a car that they aren't selling you. You can't buy a car from ABC motors and have DEF motors do the sale paperwork. It just doesn't work like that. The only circumstance I can see this happen is if the 2 dealers are in the same owner group, but then it's still more than likely never gonna happen. At my store, we DocuSign and e-sign all out of town deals. Just my 2 cents this wonderful Friday morning.

Any advice, comments, or rebuttals welcom
Numerous times with both new and used cars. No qualms if you do due diligence and don't leave questions unasked. Different states have different laws as to (1) whether you can use docusign of if you need to send paperwork back and forth and if you need paperwork on your end notified - i've done it each of these ways, and of course the docusign is the most convenient (2) different states have different rules on whether or not they will collect your state's sales taxes and whether or not they will do your OMV paperwork - I tend to lean toward the states that will do it all for me
Make sure it is not some jake lege salesman, and make sure they know you are a serious person, not a lamb and unlikely you'll get screwed. I mean there are still plenty of shitty old business model dealers, but most that I've dealt with are getting away from obfuscating and trying to screw the customer at ever turn. Much more transparent. Last deal I did the finance manager didn't even try the hard sell on the add ons and screw jobs.
One more thing, even if you are going to "pay cash" for the vehicle, consider financing thru the dealer and paying off once the registration has come through. The caveat here I would tell you is don't let them screw you on a rate even if this is the case.
Shipping is a whole other can of worms, but if they are arranging, you'll have much less trouble to deal with in all liklihood.

You serious?
yes, if it's a new car and it's just being shipped, what's the big deal? all new cars are shipped from somewhere
Baw you trust the dealers a lot more than I do. If they don't send you the correct car its much harder to remedy. Wrong color, damage from the sales lot, carwash guy gets a BJ in the back seat... I have a hard time trusting the car to show up clean and correct.
I would at least strike a deal where you get to inspect it prior ot handing over money.

whenever I buy a new truck the sales person always wants to go for a drive, I usually say I've been driving trucks since I was 13-14 years old,
Again you are very trusting... I wouldn be so trusting. What if the last guy to test drive it hit a giant pothole or fender bender, maybe its never set right after that... Would not trust these cats.

That sounds a lot easier than going into a dealership and dealing with the salesman who has to go check with his boss every 10 mins
All of that was negotiated on the front end. Worked with the sales manager over the phone on pricing, and once we agreed, I verbally committed to the transaction. The dealership sent the car a few days later, and the pilot driver called me when he was 30 minutes out, as I requested.
Easiest transaction through a dealership I've ever had. Dealership was probably 250 miles away or so.
