Hey all,

For those of you who use (or will use Irv as I will) and live outside of Chicago or Illinois (as I do), here is a great article on car shipping from Edmunds.com

http://www.edmunds.com/advice/buying/articles/117847/article.html

Cheers,

sure, we can sticky this one. As long as it gives valuable info, I have no problem.

I was also thinking on making a thread where to post all the important links and just sticky that one, so people will find everything in one place.

What do you think?

I think that this is a great topic, since Irv is snagging business all over the country!!  WOO WOOOO

I had no idea where to start looking in regards to someday having my 550i shipped from Barrington to wherever I live when I am done with my FIRST ED!!  HAHAHAHAHA

NOT likely...when I do my ED trip, there may be a week where my undergrad trumpet teacher comes over to Europe and travels with me...HE is the one who got me hooked on BMW's MANY years ago.....He drives like the devil and I am already scared thinking about him driving my new baby in Germany...and my ED is still MONTHS away!!! crazy  LOL
