Who here has had a car shipped? Looking to buy a terminator but my next step right now is figuring out how to get it shipped. Want to know peoples experiences, how long it took etc.

i did it 3 times so far, each time someone different, i usually picked the person who was middle priced, i just did one that was the cheapest and it took an extra week over what was quoted for time frame even though it was picked up that same day.

But they do a full 21 pt inspection etc, before and after the car is picked up and arrives to make sure nothing is damaged, make sure the car is insured on their trailer by their company, and do not leave anyone a deposit until they definitely have a driver in the are and can get picked up.

What exact companies did you use? Hoping to make the decision on a shipping company Monday to get the car here but Labor Day weekend :rockon:

plycar. had my Saleen shpped from cali to ny in an enclosed trailer for $2,200. The car was picked up and delivered on time and without a scratch or dent on it.

One thing for sure is, you get what you pay for. if your spending your hard earned money on a new car, make sure you dont skimp out on the shipping to f*ck the car up before you get it

Horseless Carriage...my C6Z arrived to my door from Upstate NY to Central Texas, in 100% mint condition. The inside of the car was covered in plastic, as was the exterior....and when my car arrived, inside the carrier were 2 Ferrari 458s, 1 Ferrari California, a brand new Bentley, an old-school Porsche and my C6Z... Cost $1,700 and worth EVERY SINGLE PENNY!!!

jplogistics is a company my buddy in dallas used and they had a RR Phantom, Ghost, and Murcielago along with his 911 Turbo S he picked up. Have read nothing but great things about them.

I used All American Trucking and Transport to ship both our WS.6s from Cali - Va and couldnt be any happier!!! I went open trailer, and it took them about 7 days to deliver. Cars had a little dust on em when they arrived, that was it.
