Shipping
NewStar Motor Cars works with top rated vehicle transport companies to handle shipping requests from around the corner to around the globe. If this is your first time shipping a vehicle, here are some of the more common questions we receive.
How much does it cost to transport a classic car?
The cost for classic car transport can vary based upon the specific make and model as well as the distance from the showroom to your driveway. NewStar Motor Cars will get you a few different shipping quotes for you. Once you have decided on the best option, you will be able to work for final delivery arrangements.
What is Door-to-Door Auto Transport?
Door-to-door transport is the choice for many of our customers. The delivery truck will pick up your vehicle from our showroom and it will be delivered as close to your home as legally possible. Some cities may restrict where large trucks may drive in residential areas. This is something to discuss with the transport company when scheduling your shipment. They may have other delivery trucks available which would not conflict with any municipal regulations.
What kind of vehicle will transport my classic car?
Our transport partners have two options available – Open Transport and Enclosed Transport.
Enclosed carriers are often recommended for exotic and classic cars. This may also depend upon the time of year you are having your vehicle shipped. An enclosed trailer will better protect your vehicle from the elements during its journey to your driveway.
Open car carriers are the popular choice for most new car dealerships as they can typically carry 8-10 vehicles at a time.
Is my vehicle insured during the shipping process?
YES! NewStar Motor Cars ONLY deals with fully licensed and insured shipping companies to ensure our customers are fully covered. Our Inventory Specialists will be able to assist with additional questions.
How long will it take to transport my classic car?
There are a lot of factors which will determine the schedule. We are able to give you more details about the timeframe for delivery based upon what shipping options are best for you. Typical turn around is 5-7 business days after final payment and contracts are received.
Does my vehicle registration need to be current prior to shipping?
No. Once you have received your vehicle, you will be able to register the vehicle with your local department of motor vehicles. Except for international shipping, we do not ship the title along with the vehicle for your protection. Your title and any additional paperwork will be sent directly from NewStar Motor Cars separately. International shipping will require the title to be present for customs processing.
Why Ship a Classic Car?
Shipping a classic car is the easiest way to move your vehicle safely and securely, whether moving to a new town or taking it to a classic car show. It is the simplest way to move it from one place to another; shipping provides peace of mind knowing that your precious car will arrive in the same condition as when it was sent. The process of transporting a classic vehicle involves more than just putting it in the back of a truck and driving away; special care must be taken when shipping these cars due to their age and delicate nature. Another benefit of shipping a classic car is that it won’t suffer from any wear and tear from long trips or dealing with harsh weather conditions. Plus, professional shippers are insured for any damage that may occur during transport, giving you added protection for your valuable asset.
