Flew from Greensboro NC to Chicago IL for mine- I wanted a BBY 03 with cloth interior and sunroof. Didn't want leather, and wanted one that had no mods so the "warranty" would still be valid. Landed at 11:30 am signed papers and left the dealer by 12:15pm central- time changed an hour crossing into Ohio but I still had plenty of road to chew. I loved driving it through WV on those curvy tight mountain roads, found some forgetten highways and made it home at 1:30 am Eastern. I WOULD do it over again.

My 2nd 350z, flew to LA and drove it home 450miles
My STi, flew to LA and drove it home another 450miles
My 1st EVO, flew to San Jose and drive it home. 800miles
My 2nd EVO, Drove to LA to buy and Drove it home, 900 miles.

Yes, I really wish I can find better deals locally, but people seemed to think their cars are worth 3-4k above actual market value

About 2 hours. A tad over 120 miles. Went to HB Mitsu, they didn't have GG. They called Norco Mitsu, we drove over there and picked it up.

Almost 1100 miles. I went from Boston to Va.

Left Friday morning with my buddy, truck and trailer, got there around 7 at night, loaded the car up, grabbed some grub and headed home. 26 hours later I had an Evo in my driveway
