    temporarily shipping a car overseas

    It would only be from June to September. Does this process cost less than shipping a car overseas permanently?

            As if the shipping company gives a rats ass how long the car is going to be there.

            Yes, It cost more to temporarily ship a car than it does to permanently ship a car. It's a round trip ticket dumb ass.

                Totally going to be cheaper. Supplies would much rather ship your car both ways.

                  I assume the support Iran thing is in reference to the people protesting against the current government, in hopes to overthrow its religous dictatorship and make it more of an ally to the western world, which would be a good thing. ;)

                    mind you, we all have different political opinons. but if you're just acting ignorant, I'd rather not waste my time arguing with one like you.

                    I'm not sure. either that or the 505. I have family in Germany, near dusseldorf, that i'm gonna be living with. Thinking I could just load it up with euro parts, do some work on the car over there, with a far greater access to euro parts. peugeot parts here, scarce...there, too much.

                              Unless you've just got money to blow, you're going to be better off not shipping the cars. Figure at LEAST $1k for each leg of the trip. Also got to be prepared for the major headaches involved with dealing with US Customs when handling an automobile.
