Cross-country shipping
I was wondering if someone has experience with getting a TT coupe from one state to another. I know it depends on a few things but I would appreciate a general ball park of the cost to truck a TT across the US. Found a lot of TT but nowhere near me... Let me know the source, destination, and cost! Thanks a bunch!

It will be VERY expensive. Your best options finically is to fly out one-way and drive it back home. For some people they have no interest in driving so far, but for me it's a about the best road-trip experience you'll ever have! I live in Iowa and could only find a very specific model in Main. Flew to Boston for $250, dealership met me at the airport with the car, signed paperwork in the parking lot and then I spend 3 days casually driving cross-country. I stopped off at big attractions (like Niagara Falls), took scenic byways and just enjoyed the entire experience. Far less expensive than trucking, and I had the best time enjoy a nice long drive in my new car!

I did the same. I flew to Cleveland, was picked up at the airport, went to the dealership to do paperwork and then drove back to Rochester. The local dealers didn't want to deal with shipping it.

when i was shopping for CPO ones, Audi Mentor in Ohio was offering free shipping nationwide for February. I almost made a deal with them in March for one they had and they were going to throw in free shipping as well even though the offer had ended. But someone locally was there at the time and bought it. So depending on the dealership, you could try negotiating that in.

Earlier this year, I shipped a vehicle (not an Audi) from Richmond, VA to Austin, TX. The carrier was Montway Transport and was an OPEN carrier. Cost was $850.00, enclosed shipping would have been double. The company picked it up one day late and arrived here, undamaged, one day early. Drivers were Russian and spoke little to no English. The car was dirty, of course, but had no damage. Just some info for you so you can make your own decision.

In MA we have a state sales tax paid at delivery and an annual excise tax paid to the residing town. The sales tax is a fixed rate as purchasing other taxable commodities but the excise tax follows the depreciation curve (pay a ton when new and much less a number of years down the road).
So yes, the sate-to-state terminology can be confusing and homework is required.

Spent $700 to have my new 2017 TT Roadster shipped from Audi Salt Lake City to Calabasas, Ca. in May, 2017. Enclosed carrier operated by Z Trans. No problems of any kind.
