Search google for quotes. There are several companies that will ship your car for you... but make sure you do your research.

price will vary depending on how you are transporting your Z. You can do inside an 18 wheeler blocked from the weather, or on the back of a flat bed truck. You usually get what you pay for. $500-$2000 to ship across the country.

I have never had to ship a car myself but from the several shipping-related threads I have seen here, the best advice would be to shop for the best company, not just the best rate. Members have even received their cars with thousands of $ worth of damage. There have been threads with pictures as well; seek and you shall find.

Save some green, use the Nick Hogan car delivery service. He personally drives each one to it's destination. I think he splits the time with Britany Spears when he gets tired.

done this a few times. Like said before. You can either have it shipped the cheapest way, which usually is on a trailer under other cars that leak fluids or all the way to a enclosed trailer. I used AAA Auto Transporters (or something like that) for 2 of my FDs and they were great. Another thing that will make the price vary if you want it shipped from hub to hub or door to door. I just drove from SoCal to Norfolk Va and it totally sucked!!! You might enjoy it but I don't see how.

http://www.transportreviews.com/

Use this web site to check out reviews on different car shipping. I found out this site after I placed an order with Interstate Auto movers who are currently shipping my car from Houston to Reno, NV after picking it up this Monday. The lowest quote I got was 550 for open.

Cant wait to get my baby back. Damn !! Miss her soo bad.

Are you shipping your other stuff to Mass?? If so, find out if they can put the car on the moving truck.. I had 2 friends who did that on moves from New York to Las vegas and Arizona.. Cost an extra $500.. And it worked out great.. They just drove the car up ramps onto the truck and covered it.

Good Luck..
