Buy / sell vehicle without residency - taxes due?

[Shpongle]

I'd like to purchase a full motorhome before I get married locally (plans to do so shortly). I want my home on wheels to be safe from any potential grabby-grabby if there is a divorce later on.

One can go to an escribana to exempt some things from "property considered to be in community of marriage". However, I've been told that de facto, this can change after you have been married 10 years (or something, I can't remember), rendering such exemptions meaningless. With that as a basis...

1. If I sell my existing vehicle (which was not a good purchase) will I need to pay something like capital gains on that? (it will be a net loss anyway)
2. Is it possible to bring in $25-30k via crypto / cuevas, and use that to buy a vehicle without being targeted by AFIP, as a tourist? (is this even a problem for non-working tourists?)
3. After I get married, will the fact of my owning a car be known by AFIP/ARCA and will I be expected to then pay tax on it once I gain residency?

I am registered with AFIP (to be able to purchase property). I need to know the implications before I go ahead.

If you are afraid of any "grabby grabby" why even get married in the first place, you don't need a marriage license from the govt to be in a relationship with someone else

Whatever you buy before marriage is solely yours, so your partner does not have any rights to it. Depending on the value you will have to pay taxes on it if you become a permanent resident. You will also need to get a local professional drivers license depending on the size of the vehicle.

Thanks @nikad for answering points (1) and (3). I'm seeking vehicles homologated as motorhome which can be driven with the licensia comun, but I appreciate your mentioning it.

I'm hoping someone can clarify re point (2), whether bring that amount of money is even possible for a tourist (3x trips to get $10k each time and leave it with a trusted party is a heck of a thing... not sure if cuenta bancaria in dolares is feasible, given taxes AFIP will apply later).
