    I've used FedEx Passport Transport a dozen times from both coasts to Colorado. No problems. And lately I've had some amazingly fast deliveries.

    Thomas Sunday out of Pa.They are one of the best.Look up their web site.Just type in Thomas Sunday Transport. You can see pictures of the enclosed transport carriers and they have pictures of each driver who will be picking up your car.They did an outstanding job in delivering my F430 .The driver even took his shoes off when he got into the car.Ciao Tony

    Exotic Car Transport based in Orlando -- call them and ask if they run out to the west coast.

    I can relate two very positive experiences with them:

    The new owner of a car I sold sent them to pick it up. Driver was professional and a good communicator, listened to all of my cautions about the car, put a bag over the seat and floormat, treated it with care. Inside the truck were some serious and significant collectible cars, too.

    I suggested a friend of mine try them when he needed a Ferrari shipped, and he had an equally impressive story to tell.

    I wouldn't use FedEx. Client had a claim, and they were terrible in their handling of the matter.

    ive used passport for over 25 years! even after Bob Pass sold the company the service has remained top knotch!!!InterCity is also a good company and have delivered many cars to us
    used to think Reliable was just that until they dropped off the Porsche GT3 i bought to me!as i was inspecting the car i noticed the broken front spoiler lip which was not broken in the photos the dealer sent me when i bought it.ithis was a husband wife driver team and the lady told me thats how it was when they picked it up.and then refused to show me the check-in paperwork stating the company i bought the car from that also paid the shipping on the car does'nt allow that which of course is complete BS and shes still telling me it was that way when they got picked it up until the owner of the shop next door walks over and tells me he watched her drive into our shared parking lot way too fast and bottom out the car in the driveway!!even then she still denied it...bottom line is i would never trust a car to them even with someone else paying the ride!!
