Intercity is a board sponsor I know for sure on 6speed, not sure about here, but they do offer member discounts. I used them for my 996tt having it shipping from San Fran to here in VA.

I used Intercity as well, bringing my car from Massachusetts to Fort Myers. They are really good in fact it was there the very next day.

Plycar and Exotic Car Transport. I've used them for a couple of my cars, good results every time.

I really recommend UShip.com. Hundreds of shippers bid for your business, you can see their reviews and choose the best. Most are owner operators that are deadheading and are glad for your business. It's point to point, unlike the commercial guys that are going to hold your car for days or week consolidating a shipment. Last commericial shipment of a car for me from Birmingham to Portland took 3 weeks.

I'm currently shipping my trailer from San Diego to TPD in Sacramento and on to Portland using the service- so far so good, very inexpensive and I get real time tracking of my shipment.

Polycarbonate just moved a SPB for me from NJ to Texas. Great looking rig, knowledgable driver and on time. Even brought 8 spare racing wheels with the car.

Great company
