+ for Horseless Carriage. They take extremely good care of the cars they transport. Average pricing too. They're known for transporting everything from junkyard heaps of old classic cars to exotics for the rich and famous.

Driving back would be a lot of fun also. Contrary to what many think (mainly all my Subaru buddies) the Evo 10 is a great road trip and daily driving car.

Thanks for all the input everyone. I ended up using transportreviews.com and going with Direct Express Auto Transport who subbed out the work to another company here in Oregon. They had really aggressive pricing and the car was shipped with no problems. From the time they charged me the down-payment the car was picked up in 3 days and another 4 days it was here in OR. It probably would have been a good idea to go with horseless carriage since they are enclosed; the car was filthy when they got here.


Reid, I see your a Ventureshield specialist. Ive been told this product is superior to the 3m stuff. Do you have any input? I want to get a full front PPF film install asap.

Plugged in the zip codes on a auto shipping website and the next day I had like 8 quotes to ship the car, anywhere between $575 and $700. Question is, what company should I go with? I have read a lot of positive and negative reviews on transportreviews.com about so many of the companies. Has anyone on here had a good experience with any company in particular???

Thanks in advance!
Not sure if it was mentioned but will be an important point to your decision making.

1. Do need hard dates for pick up and drop off, or are you flexible
2. enclosed or open Closed is more expensive and better
3. Is the car lowered, can it be driven right on the truck (probably)

frankly, whatever the bid, expect to pay more as you dial in the service for what you need.
