Oh, c'mon! Be a man! Fly down, hop in, and drive it back! I've done one that way myself (and THAT was a Costa Rican '71 diesel LR and an 1100 mile trip!). and two (one G and one motorcycle) for friends.

It's the only way to go. The trip won't cost you any more than the shipping, and you get the experience and the trip for free.

-Dave G.

Besides that, the wait to get it shipped can be rediculous. I bought my G320 from Keiser in CA. The shipping company gave me the run-around for six weeks and still didn't pick it up. I flew out and drove it home, great experience. I have also flown to Miami and driven back my wifes BMW and recently drove to Louisville KY in a rental car and drove home my 928.

I agree with Dave, the experience is worth it and the hassle is minimal.
