Car Transportation / Shipping.

Hey all,

I want to buy evo from other state. I am now in Seattle.

What is the best company for the car shipping? Price wise? Service wise?

Thank you.

intercity is one of the best service wise although they do cost a little bit more. I wouldn't recommend DAS from personal experiences as well as from what I've heard from others.

Just to reiterate what BenJ said, stay away from DAS. I had my Evo shipped from California to Pennsylvania when I bought it from South Coast last year, and I wouldn't recommend them at all - over a week late (with no explanation), and the car had some slight gouges on the rear bumper when I got it, which I believe were caused by chains from where it was tied down on the carrier.

Just called intercity, they don't ship from the car orginal place to Seattle.

If they want to ship to NWest, it has to be from East Coast side.

Just some infos.

I have used Able Auto Transport many times, they have always had the best rates and the service window is usually very accurate.

As others have said fly down and drive it back it'll give you some time to get familiar with the car, and will be a lot of fun.
