what the title says... anyone transported a car from back east to the bay area? what company did you use and how much? good/bad experience?

thanks.

Being able to register it is different depending on the state you buy it from.

If you have AAA they can give you great advice

Old thread (yes, even Steve C was in it!), but several companies were mentioned:

oh cool, thanks for that link... i will look into it. yeah this will be coming from chicago to the bay area.... i want an enclosed truck with tracking capabilities... i heard its around $1200 enclosed from NY to SF so im thinking a little less than that.

thanks

What are you buying that has to come from New York? Something exotic?

s2kennmark

something white hehe, not exotic but hard to find.... still under negotiation, hopefully it'll go through.

I used DAS (direct auto shippers, i believe)

It cost me $675 from Chicago to San Lorenzo... I had to pay $100 extra (or it would have been $575) because it's a convertible. So, that guaranteed me a top spot on the truck. And I didn't pay the extra $100 to have it picked up and delivered... I did that' myself


took about... six days I want to say.

s2kennmark

open or enclosed truck? did you happen to get a price quote for enclosed?

thanks for the inputs... i will do some phonecalls tomorrow.

s2kennmark

only ~8000 made worldwide... around 3000 of that made it in the US.
