Selling my car - question

I am selling my 2000 323Ci. Manual transmission. I've maintained it well, so I think I can get more out of it in a private sale than to sell to a dealer.

How does the process work for a private sale in NY? I've never done it before. I understand that I keep the plates.

Is this the right process:
1) meet with buyer and complete paperwork / bill of sale
2) collect certified check from buyer
3) sign over title
4) buyer takes bill of sale and title to NYDMV
5) buyer gets new plates
6) buyer comes back and picks up the car

Thanks.

Once you sign over the title. He can take the car and do whatever he wants with it. So he might go register it first and come get it later or hand over the money and just take it.

yea once he signs the title in his name he can do whatever he wants with it , just make sure your insurance has cease
