Interesting. That's what I've been told before. Prolly wrong. I trust Fusz' word.

Yeah very true, but less of a risk than driving across country almost.

Well just read this great thread with soda and popcorn. I tend not to read 10 pages plus on the first reading.....but the OP and the community helping with advise had me on the edge of the seat. I can 't believe I read the whole thing.

Congrats on the car you really wanted from the start, funny how the carrot can be tempting when waived a certain way.

My two cents.......take ya back to March 2009. Purchased 2 370Z's in one day because I could not decide on one color - red or pg.....j/k. The bro and myself bought ours the same day. Ok the red sport touring was not be found in our region. Could wait for a container docking from across the pond at port of Los Angeles or wait for one that was located in Chicago. Which was out of our region. Took the Chicago car but was snagged first from Portland Oregon dealer. Paid the extra 1k because dealer would not take a trade.....all ok because Calif sales tax was going up in April and would pay the same if we took the car from L.A. because it would not get here in time. So had transported by truck for 1k which was a wash. Got what we wanted.

Sometimes you have to pay to get what you really want. Congrats Sara!!

hey everyone~ sorry ive been away over the weekend and didnt reply. that is so awesome you read the whole thread! lol thanks for letting me know how much transport could potentially cost...thats gonna suck but it is worth it i spose some of you were asking about the price and its a little complicated but ill let you know. basically last month when i met the dealer for the first time he took 500 off then ANOTHER 500 because he was matching a competing dealer also trying to sell me the car. well when he called friday telling me the news and the price he took the first 500 off but i didnt realize until long after we hung up that he mentioned nothing about the other 500 we agreed upon (i guess it slipped my mind since i was so excited). so today they are supposed to call me with the price of transport and i will bring up the 500. he seems very honest and sticks to his word so i assume he will remember and agree to the additional 500. if for whatever reason he wont, the car will be right over 40K. if he takes if off, it will be just under 40K. like i said ill let yall know!

im so nervous about the transportation....i hope it comes in absolutely perfect condition...i dont wanna have to make the choice to walk away if something is wrong that they wont fix. but i will cross that bridge when i get to it, for now, only positive thoughts...

Nice..... If for whatever reason there is some dings like on the front bumper, then they will fix it for you. If the dealer knows what is best it will happen. FYI......if you see a front license plate bracket on the front bumper please take it off to inspect to make sure that it did not cause any dings. I believe it is 40k before tax.

Damn 945$. I would've drove that myself. Couple full tanks and still have left over for a CAI.

im definitely not saying that $945 doesnt suck. because it does...but honestly its kinda a convenience thing...first of all i forgot to ask exactly where it is coming from but lets just say its coming from boston. thats a plane ticket there and 900 miles back (15+ hours). i would be taking my dad along and neither of us are willing to miss any work so if anything got delayed/held up whatsoever it might not all get done in one weekend. the dealer said he is willing to take the 945 out of my down or factor it into the 60 months, which is about 15 bucks more a month. so in the big picture i dont really care but yeah thats definitely a lot

Do what you have to do. As I stated earlier in this thread that I paid an even $1k for my car to be shipped. In the end it was well worth it & it is only money. Remember money will always come & go.

Your car is coming from close to where I used to live! I bought my 350z in Boston Mass. I'm from Maine but it was only a little over an hour... I think it was cool you shipped it! Enjoy

I live south of Boston, I had my car delivered to me from Virginia, about a 7 and a half hour trip but I convinced the dealer to drive it themselves to me, and they drove my trade in (350Z) back... If you are a good negotiator perhaps you can do a similar deal... Even if you say forget the $500 off and just deliver it to me and take my trade in for the drive back they might be willing... expensive sports cars aren't selling like hot cakes in today's economy so be hard on them. G/L.
