    Has anybody used Exotic transport out of Orlando lately and what was the experience? I need a car moved from Ft. Lauderdale to Boulder, CO and I'm getting 3 week pick ups and 2 week transit times. Exotic is 1 week but I don't have history with them. Business must be good. All of these guys are backed up now.

    Must be a big day for transport - I think this is the 3rd time I've said this ;)

    Try Dave at Transport Masters, he's a great guy, can usually find a truck much faster than just trying to hit the big guys, and he's been at it long enough to have weeded out the chaff in the trucking industry. www.transportmasters.com or 561-482-7789...tell him Jason sent you.

    I had my 512BBi picked up by Exotic at Carobu Engineering in Costa Mesa, California, and delivered to Boca Raton, Florida.

    Not only was Exotic the most competively priced, the car was delivered very quickly. Their driver was knowledgeable and very careful.

    Possibly there are other good transport companies that ship from various places in the USA, but if you are shipping to or from Florida, I would definetely recommend Exotic Car Transport. They are base in Orlando, so they likely have a better network in this state than any other tranport company.

    Exotic is great. They transported my Diablo Roadster. All trailers in their fleet have hydrolic lifts. All one has to do is to drive on and the car is safely tucked away and ready for delivery....It takes the worrysome out of people burning out your clutch while loading your car on/off prior to deliver.

    Had exotic tranport my 1968 hemi roadrunner from Tampa to Los Angeles ..... 8 or 9 days door to door .... I think is was about $ 1,300 ...... highly recommend them. They use enclosed air-ride trailers .... and the driver even gave the car a quick detail after unloading to remove fingerprints, etc.

    I've used ECT twice, once to move a 348 challenge from FL, another time a 456 from GA...to CA... both times were great experiences. Drivers were prompt, knowledgeable, and kept me up to date at all times.

    Good luck!

    I used them once to deliver my ZO6 to Florida did a nice job but it is a big rig so think ahead to where you will receive the car

    I got the car I had shipped by Exotic last night. I've used 10 differant transport companies and Exotic is the best. I had a pick up out of Florida and everybody else was quoting 1-3 weeks. They picked it up in 24 hours and 72 hours later the car was in Colorado delivered by a perfect rig with a nice driver. Price what the same =/- $100. They're my new first choice.

    Thanks Lonnie. The GT3 was as good as it you said it would be. Enjoy the Stradale. The hunt is on for the 550 we discussed. Tom
