Anyone ever ship a car across the US? I am using Reliable Carriers (saw their ad on HD TV, while watching the Mecum auto auction) and its about $2100 with 3 week window...seems like 3 years...

congrats!!!! gorgeous car!

Congrats I just bought the same color combo. My car is an o8 528i. I think it is the best looking interior. Have fun. I'm jealous cause I wanted a 550 but I couldnt afford it,

Thanks for the transport feedback/pm's.

I chose DAS - I feel comfortable after speaking to them on the phone. Plus they can pick it up the earliest (fri) and the price for 10day service is 500 bucks less than my first option.

IS IT MAY 3RD YET????!

Nah, I didnt even get one reply or pm when I posted on this site...I was ok with the price and the dude who bought it was pumped so I felt good about letting it go.
