When I entered Mexico, after buying a US bike, but no visa time left to wait for the Title, it was OK as all they asked for was the Registration papers, which were in my name. I only ever had the old Title, and expected to have the new title shipped when it arrived at my freinds place in San Diego.
Needless to say, make sure it gets shipped by UPS or another shipping company, mine never did arrive in Panama, and 2 years later it has still not arrived, that was by US postal service!!!
Lucky for me, I had a scanned copy of the title before it was sent, which I photocopied both sides back to back and that worked OK.
For what it was worth, the only country in Central Amerca that asked for the title was Honduras, a rip off country.
Good Luck
