I bought my SVX in New Jersey and drove it to Missouri... two-days worth of driving (give or take). Now, I'll be honest; I did the stupid thing and used my plates from another vehicle I already owned to drive it home and was REAL careful not to get caught.

If I were to do it again? I'd go up to the DMV and get temporary tags to drive it home. It's just the safe route if you get caught. If you're lucky and get caught you could probably talk your way out of it ("No, officer... I swear that's the car I used to own... I traded it for this one. Your records must be messed up."), but I wouldn't risk it again especially such a long way from home.
