I don't know of anyone in particular, but when I used to do work for a porsche broker in daytona I believe it cost him about $500 to have an enclosed car carrier bring a car from the great lakes region to florida if that gives you an idea of the ballpark you might be in.

So what are you thinking about hauling here from cali?

I used a car company called AAA Transport or something like that. Had my car shipped from Hawaii here. The car had a couple of little scratches but they took care of it. Check out www.carmoves.com

Well, I had my car shipped through AAA and they are nice people but the problem is you dont choose who accually ships your car. AAA uses a bunch of other shipping companies.

In my case I talked to Ed at AAA and he was nice and got everything worked out, but a company from Pennsacola FL named Carroll Josey Auto Transport accually shipped the car. When the car arrived the trucker was drunk off his ass, and when he was lowering my car ( after i told him 100 times to take it slow ) he went down to fast and ruined my front bumper. So I argued with him for awhile until I eventually said fuck it. Then he left and after all the confusion I look in the trunk and to my suprise the trucker Stole my speaker box!!! I know he did it to cause he had the key and he was the only person with that clean of access to the car.

I have talked to Ed at AAA and he says their not responsable cause they didnt ship it. I called the shipping company and they are a bunch of red necks that deny the whole thing and claim they are not responsible for aftermarket products.

I called the sheriff and there is a detective looking into it. I know I am not going to get a single penny outta this, but I will do anything I have to, so this doesnt happen again. Also if I am ever in Penn. FL I will have some ass kicking to do.

If you have anymore questions about what happened to me or anything just PM me and I will give you all the details.
