Shipping Evo to hawai'i.

There is a real chance that I may be moving to Hawaii in about a year. What do people think is the best way of getting my USDM EvoVIII from the US mainland to the mid-pacific?

Please address safety, cost, and travel times.

thanks

Matson costs about $900 from the West Coast. Drop off on LA. Shipping time is fast. Takes longer to get your car from Matson in Hawaii than it does for the car to cross the pond.

So this guy was walking down the street and there is a flash, and God appears in front of him. God says, you have been a very good person and I would like to do something for you. The guy says great, can you build a bridge to Hawaii so I can drive my Evo out there. I am moving there and I would like to get my Evo out there. God says, my son, that would take a lot of resources, I would have to tare down a lot of mountains to make such a bridge. Is there something else you could want, maybe something that can make you a better person. The guy thinks for a moment. You know what, the man says, could you give me the power to understand women, that would help me a lot, and God says, do you want 2 or 4 lanes.

It cost me $1200 to ship my Evo from California to Hawaii. I used Matson. Took about 5-6 weeks to get here.

i bought mine in cali and had it shipped out here and i think it was like 1300 bc of the value of the car with horizion lines.it got here in like 5 days from the day it was shipped. go to shipmyvehicle.com and check it out. there are a few of us out here with evos but im not sure how many ppl had them shipped out here.

You can contact Joe Bonifacio at torrance mitsubishi, he had a customer who bought an Evo and have it shipped to Hawaii. He can give you an estimate for shipping, if you don't mind driving to california.
