Shipping from East Coast to Hawaii

Hi,

I am moving to Hawaii in May and I would to know if anyone knows of a good shipping company to use. I've researched some but I just wanted to know if there were any good experiences with NSX owners who may have shipped their cars from the mainland. I live in New York and will be shipping my car to Honolulu. :smile:

I'm shipping my nsx in Feb to Honolulu using Horizon. They put your car in a container so it is protected. I will be shipping out of hayward california.

You should look into Pasha, www.pashahawaii.com. They have very reasonable rates do roll on roll off so you get the car much sooner when it arrives. They also provide a service where they will pickup the vehicle anywhere in the US and deliver to their vehicle processing center.

I used Horizon to ship my NSX from Hawaii to LA when I left the Navy and it arrived safe. I also used Matson to go from Hawaii to New Jersey on a previous move and again no problems.

Interesting .... I was just in Hawaii for HIN and I was planning on showing my car at the event the best rate I found was $1100 one way

Can you guys let me know the rates you paid

Thanks.

I plan to ship my car to Hawaii for HIN 2008 in December.

$975 each way via Horizon in a private container, depart Oakland or Long Beach to Honolulu

**IMPORTANT** You MUST have 6"-7" of ground clearance from the front lip and sides to the ground. If you do not they will not take your car at the dock. I had to adjust the hell out of my coilovers to pass the height mark.

I would recommend Matson, they shipped my NSX to Oakland from Hononlulu, and I tracked it in Monterey, Laguna Seca in '99 for the NSXPO. They also shipped it back from Oakland. I ran into no problems.
1999 was the time of my life with my Blue '97 NSX, and met the NSXCA group. Questions? E-mail me. ~ Jerry :biggrin:

I used Horizon from Honolulu to Orlando,Fl. Car came back to me with N.P.
I thing i spend about $2,500 and took about two weeks to get to me.

Hey Everyone...
I am moving to hawaii in the next year or two.. I heard that there is a group of guys in oahu with nsxs that hang out all the time.. Just curious if anyone knows them.. I want to try and make new friends when I'm out there.. PLease let me know.. Thanks guys...

I used www.a1autotransport.com for my Seattle to Molokai ship. Cost me 1k and was painless. All I did was show up with a filled tank of gas and give them the keys. Had my shoebox with me a couple weeks later without a scratch or pre-applied red dirt (damn you molokai!).

Leaving for Hawaii, I studied the information on the delivery of the car, I found the carrier whom I recommended, but eventually decided to sell the car and buy something already on arrival in Honolulu. This option was the best for me, I left for permanent residence. You probably do not like this option) You can then study the information on the carriers http://www.howtoliveinhawaii.com/4230/shipping-cars-to-hawaii/ and choose something specifically for themselves
