I have an O.T. question: How was your experience with the shipping company, and would you recommend them?
Thanks,

Thank you and glad to hear you've been following the 135i build. I still drive that car almost every single day.
As far as the shipping goes, I used Reliable Carriers as recommended by the dealership I purchased from. I've used UShip to ship three other vehicles for business purposes, and that went fine so I explored enclosed shipping options there as well. I got UShip offers in the $2,100-$2,400 range, but ultimately went with Reliable at $2,750 because of their reputation. Transportation was perfect, which is what really matters, but it took a while and the communication was minimal after payment and before pickup; following pickup the driver communicated with me perfectly fine. From the moment I paid until the car was in my hand, it took almost a full 4 weeks, which was my biggest complaint given the amount of money they charged. If you're not in a huge hurry, I'd recommend them though.
