I contacted Intercity but the quote seemed a little high...

Exotic Car Transport out of Orlando.

In fact, at the moment they are transporting one of my cars from LA to Pompano Beach, FL.

Ken is fantastic
Easier than ordering pizza

None of the majors do anything fast to Seattle which means your cars sits in a consolidation yard somewhere etc

Ken moved my car from Dallas to Seattle ahead of his estimated schedule

He was reccomended to me by then Ruf Dallas, now RAC, as their go to hauler

I shopped around and he was not the least expensive but I got the best vibe from him and his price was competitive

We use earth auto shippers out of Dallas and have had great result, on time, on price. Just had a GT2 shipped from Laguna after some mods with GMG to The Track In Dallas.

My experience with Exotic was terrific (Atlanta to LA).

They were recommended to me by Richard Jennings at Hennessy Porsche.

Matt (driver) was very communicative and great to deal with. I'd definitely use them, again.

Plycar

Have used multiple companies (Intercity, TNT, Passport) in 32+ years of P ownership and Plycar by far and away the best. Incredible service, clean trucks, professional drivers and exceeding expectations on timing (pickup to the minute, arrival from LA to Atlanta in 75 hours)
