Can anyone suggest a reputable, cost effective auto transport service? I've received quotes from $725-$895, shipping from Milwaukee, WI to Orange County, CA. Thanks!

That price must be for an open carrier. I'd either drive it myself or pay for an enclosed trailer. David

Yes, it is for an open carrier. Enclosed is double the price.

I highly recommend Thomas Sunday in Pa. They do the entire USA. Charlene is the one to speak to. I can say that cosr effective and good usually can nor be used at the same time. Their carriers are all enclosed with really great drives. The few hundred you might save will be spent at the body shop repairing any road hazards that will damage your car.

The search function on this forum is your friend. If you use it you'll see a lot of posts about transport companies. I highly recommend Exotic Car Transport (enclosed carrier).
