This one is also questionable in a country that allows you to buy a Porsche with cash, and which in general has its capital full cash only casinos and bars.

But yes, if you play by the book, you definitely don't want to mess with the Finanzamt.

What's wrong with that?

[pimeys]

It's well-known that the Italian mobsters are coming to Germany to buy cars with their drug money with nobody noticing. For example.

[matheusmoreira]

Not a good enough reason to place arbitrary limits on the use of cash. People should be free to buy a car with cash.

There's a planned limit making sales above 10k Euro in cash illegal, afaik.
