whats the best way to ship cars from another state?, just bought a celica Options

[diegohiga]

so i bought a celica and need to ship it from New Jersey to Florida. ive talk to a few companies and the prices are a bit high. i would like to pay no more than $500 for the service. i was thinking to fly from florida to new jersey and drive it back but at the end i might spending more money because the car has no tag and insuranse. that means that i would need to trasfer my tag and insuranse to that celica, pay for tolls and gas, car gives around 28mph per gallon (about 1200 miles/18 hours of drive) and pay to flight there about $140

so i dont know whats more convienent. someone kwos a company with low rates?

This is why you think things out before committing. Eh, you should only have to get it insured as far as making it legal to drive back home. Get a grace period on tagging it, since you can't tag it until you have the title anyway. Another option is you have a friend with a truck and trailer and tow it home. Personally I wouldn't attempt driving a "new to you" car that far, especially one of that age.

If the car was taken well of and has no known big issues, its fine. Ive seen older cars made it to Minnesota from California, New York, etc. To be honest, i was hesitant about driving the Celica back from Texas but we drove it 75mph+ fine with 195k miles on it lol.
