Depends on how much you love your car and at what lengths are you willing to go to baby it.
I bought my NSX in TN and had it shipped from TX to CA for $675--open transport. Had to wash it when it arrived buy otherwise, fine. Closed transport is the best but be prepared to pay a premium. I wouldn't trust a closed transport company that charges less than $1k. To do it properly, it takes at least that much.
BTW, when you're shopping around for companies, ask what kind of vehicles will be riding along with your car. Mine pulled up with other high-line vehicles so I felt pretty safe about that.
One more thing (very important): Make sure your car is top-loaded. That advice applies with either open or closed transport. Good luck.
