NEWBIE HERE!

Waiting for delivery to CT from Oregon of my 3.5SE Coupe.

Was lowest mileage black 6SPD in country, so I'm forking over the big $$ for 3,258 mile transport. First purchase over internet, (not for the faint of heart!) a lot of moving parts, but I'm pretty diligent so I'm confident I'll be OK.

Hopefully vehicle will be here Sunday and I'll be a much better position to have intelligent car-specific discussions w the NICO community.

Welcome! Oregon! Damn! What dealer did you purchase from here in CT? Just bought my 2010 White 6 Speed and it was brought in from Cherry Hill, NJ.

Nice, dude. Welcome to the forums. Be sure to check out the Nissan meet in NY in two weeks. Hopefully you'll have your car by then; when's the ETA?

I drive to and from Hartford three nights a week, and I've done the Hartford-Long Island thing a few times after class. Absent traffic, it takes about 2-2.5 hours. More if you're lazy and take 91 to 95.

No no....purchased used w 20k miles from Oregon (Tonkin Gresham Honda)...shipping to CT!

[Jonnyess]

Shipper says Sunday or Monday delivery!

For me - Sunday would be ideal so I don't have Monday work conflicts, and I can spend the day primping it...

meantime I'm praying the DMV will let me pre-register tomorrow with what paperwork I have so I can just bolt on my plates and head for I84!

[SHIFT_COUPE]

Good luck man! I had the same color and model before I got my new one. It was a lease return.

[IBCoupe]

Good luck!

[Viper5000]

just out of curiosity how much did it cost to ship it?

[Jonnyess]

$1,149.00

+ the $100 tip I'll give the driver who waited 2 hours on the street Saturday night before the g*dd*mn dealer would release it because they 'didn't get my wire'

Congrats Johnny and welcome!

BTW, even if the DMV doesn't let you pre-register, you KNOW you are still going to drive it......!!!!!
