I used DAS and was very satisfied. The car came from TX and was delivered to NYC with no problem. They have sattelite tracking, so watching your vehicle move around the country is cool.

Good Luck

I've used a2b transport (shipacar.com) twice with good results. We sent a Jeep Wrangler and VW GTI from Virginia to Texas and then back via open trailer. They were very prompt and rates were good, I don't know if they offer enclosed trailers though.

I used InterCity. Who advertises themselves as the official carrier of the Carrera GT. The rate from California to Florida was $1600.

The drivers were very professional, fully enclosed trailer and they put a car cover on it. It doesn't leave the trailer until it gets to the destination.

A first rate experience and I will just them again.

Intercity. 4 times never a problem, simply the best.

I just used DAS to ship a car from LA to Detroit. Reasonable price. Delivered ontime. No problems. No damage.

I used Intercity for shipping my cobra replica from NJ to AZ and they could not have done a better job. Picked up on time, delivered on time and the driver was extremely professional. Car arrived in perfect condition, I would use them again.

I used DAS to ship the Cab (enclosed), and a Chev truck (open) from Tampa Bay, to the Northern California Foothills. I was more than a bit pissed to find that they left the Cab outside in their shipping yard overnight, and when I recieved it in California, I had paw prints, as well as a few scratches on the front decklid from some damn critter ?

The next time I do this, I will use Intercity, that way it will remain enclosed until I receive it on the other end !
