Lookng for a good transporter to ship my 07 coupe from Ca. to Il. Would shipping in an enclosed van make the most sense? All ideas appreciated. Scott

My opinion is, enclosed is better. I did have another car shipped years ago by Passport, now a company owned by FedEx/. Not cheap, but very, very good.

I used a transporter to move my C5. The guy stressed me out big time. In other words, no recommendation from me.
