Cashiers checks can be easily faked.
I would have them write me a personal check, and then go to their bank with them, and have it cashed. For a small fee, you can have that money wired to your bank account. That way you're not walking around with $5,000 in cash.
Or conversely, go down to their bank, and ask them to wire the cash into your account, and take the receipt of wire transfer.

I have had bank checks Travelers checks and money orders show up as either counterfit or invalid.
I would accept cash or Cash! If they want the car they will find the cash.

Like others have said, you're pretty much screwed. That's the risk of co-signing a loan, if the other defaults, you're on the hook for it. Well your first warning sign should've been that at his age (guessing early 30s) he shouldn't have a problem getting a loan on his own, unless he's defaulted before and ruined his credit. I guess you can sue him in small claims.... but if he can't pay the creditor, he probably can't pay you either. And even if you win, judgements are capped at $5000 in most states.

Yes.. Cash is king ... You could also go to their bank with them.. This is a safe way to have your purchase agreement also notorized... You do have an agreement written up right?
