Car Transportation?

Hello all!

I am seriously thinking about buying a vehicle that is located clear across the country and was wondering if anyone would recommend any car transport businesses they have dealt with in the past.

I found a killer deal on an 2005 Acura Rsx Type-S and want to pull the trigger, but am debating if it's worth shipping all the way here to Boise State.

Thanks!!

It should be under $1,000. Last time I wanted to buy an Audi in Denver. The shipping was $850 quoted by the dealership. I'm sure you can get it for less.

They transported my car from LA to Boston for $850 door-to-door. It took 8 days which is reasonable and they were very responsive to emails and phone calls.

Don't buy a car without inspecting it in person first. (Unless you have a friend that can check out the car for you)

How good of a deal? To make the price + possible inspection + transportation worth it? I'd imagine RSX Type S's aren't going for more than $15k...
