Actually, you can buy a nonsentient car. You give it Compartmentalized Mind (Controls) and it has IQ 0 and can only act when you operate it. And it still counts as an Ally, but one without volition. In fact it's exempt from the usual upper limit on the point cost of an Ally.

At this point, what you have done is to spend CP on the vehicle, rather than cash, even cash paid for as Signature Gear.
