Transporting a 911

[tifosi00]

Hi,
My father just bought a 911 and needs to transport it from California to New Jersey. I have got quotes online from T&T auto transport, Easy car Transport and Worry free transport. Anyone have any experience with any of these? If not, anyone have a recommendation of a car transport (enclosed obviously), that won't completely break the bank across the country.

Thanks!
Mike

No recommendations on carriers specifically but I'd expect to pay at least $1500 - and wait a week or two.

Why not just fly out and drive it home? That's the best thing to do...and it's fun!

I sold a few cars on Ebay Mostly from NJ to Florida. Price was about $700 and took a few days. The buyers used the Ebay service DAS no issues that I can speak of.

Why don't you just drive it back? Those things don't go triple digit speeds for nothing. It'd be a great way to get to know the car.

My family has used both Inter-City and Horseless Carrage over the years. Both were great. Not necessarily the cheapest, but the cars were not damaged which was most important.

Coast to Coast delivery, enclosed, I would guess between $1500 and 2K. I believe Inter-City has online rate quotes. And, there will be a time delay since they like to group a couple of cars along the way. Also consider "concours season" impacts availablity and rates.

Dont drive it back! Long distance high speed driving will be hell on the front of the car. You will have hundreds of stone chips. Definately worth the 1500 bucks to have it sent in covered transportation.

drive it back. put a lot of blue painters tape all over the front, mirrors and other little sports, and you will be fine,.
you will also get to know the car well...
