I used a company called Worldwide Auto Transport, which is a division of Bekins. Cost me 500 to ship from Wichita to Pittsburgh. Great job, no problems.

Dependable Auto Shippers... expensive, but I have never heard anything bad about them... Just do a search and get a bunch of quotes, but remember, the cheapest quote isn't always the "best" quote...

I had mine shipped from TX to IL for 650. Dependable Auto Shippers are the "official" shipping company for ebay. i did not use them ONLY because they said it would take three weeks to get my car... I'm sure its different for everyone.

I'm using these guys to go from Boston to San francisco:

intercity

They're pricey, but they ship in an enclosed container.

Whoever you choose, I suggest you google them (check google groups) and do some research before you book them. There are some horror stories out there.

I also shipped DAS. It was $1500 enclosed carrier from MA to CA. Dealer picked up $500 though and I paid the rest. They got a cool tracking device that lets you see where your car is.
