YES. If you wish to own a car, whether a used or brand new one, you need to own its title, formally referred to as \\"car title.\\" The car title is what shows your ownership of the ride. So, when buying a used car, always ask for its title. Suppose the seller is unable to provide you one. In that case, the seller and the ride are not authentic, and you should walk away immediately. Also, simply having the title from the previous owner is not enough. You have to transfer the title in your name to officially own it. Thus, remember, the car title is as necessary as any other ride feature. Never buy a used vehicle without it.
