Sad, Sad Day

I need to ship mine soon too. What did it cost you? Did they give you an exact arrival date? (bc i need to fly to cali and drive it to colorado once it arrives) Also I heard you have to have at least 6 inches of ground clearance, which i do not have. Is that true? If you can answer those q's Id appreciate it.

The military paid for mine but i've done my research on pricing and its around 1000 bucks, i know with Horizon lines you need 6" of ground clearence, but mine was shipped through Matson and its lowerd a good 1.5"-2" and they didn't say a thing about it, and yes they do give you a guarntee dilivery date, which means it MIGHT arrive before that date, but will NOT arrive after, so and i think shipping it to San Deigo is the cheapest but once again just call and you'll see all the prices are about the same.

I know all to well how that feels. I had to ship mine within 48 hours of having the turbo installed. Just think of the roads that are in your future.

Thats the one good thing. I am really looking forward to my drive to Colorado from Long Beach. I'm going to avoid freeways at all costs!

I paid $1072 from HNL to long beach and yes they do give you an arrival date. They also give you about 4 days grace period before they start charging you storage fee. I cranked up the coilovers an put my stocks on just to be on the safe side. It was still lower than stock but they didn't say anything about it.

Hey M-azing it's been great, I have to say when the G's met up you betta believe that you were there (with your camera)! You take care and we'll cruise again sometime,I'm going to hold it down in Hawaii, I'll probably start a crew and we'll rep for G35Driver.com (Hawaii) I know you will all the way in cali.
