Red face Car shipping

Would anyone happen to know how much it would cost to ship a car, as in a STI, from England to the Bay Area?

Any help would be much appreciated

I see, I saw an add online and was curious about it.
The seller supposedly in England and just wants to get rid of the car.
Probably a scam though.

i shipped my car from toronto to spain and it cost me about $1500us + 15%eva-tax from the present value of the car, bet i dont know how much it will be from the UK.and plus you´ll be better of
salling the car were you are now.i dont know how much the sti is in the UK bet her in Spain it´s €42.000---50.777US and in the states it¨s about $32.500+tax=about $38.000.so there is a $12.000 difference. if it´s the same in UK then you better of salling the car and getting a brand new STI in the states. oh and her is a 2.0L not 2.5L.bet anyways make a some phone calls,do some calculations and i think you will figer it out on your on.

Im not moving from England, the car for sale is in England. The add said the STI is 7k, plus a 10% discount, so I pretty much knew this would be a scam. It is pretty much to amuse my thoughts of buying a STI for 7k

7k dollars and its suppose to be "US Emmisions Certified" or something like that. So Im guessing its the left side (American). So Im pretty sure its a scam.
