I take it you wanna ship your Civic from cali to MN? If that is your intention, personally I wouldn't bother, paying 1k+ to ship it seems pointless, since you already have an integ and a hatch right?
I know I know, it's you baby, but the cast to ship and car value ration makes it unapealing to me. If it was like a Lambo or something, sure, but a civic, toss on another 1k and get yourself another eg.

Re: Shipping a car across the states
Some people just don't understand. Up here in the midwest finding a civic in good shape with no rust for EG or especially a EF is incredibly hard to do. I bought my 4dr from a guy in Socal(torrance) and had it shipped to WI last fall. It ran me 700 but that was through my wifes work. When I called around I got the 1000-1200 range from most autoshippers. It was well worth it not having to worry about any rust. I was in amazement went I stayed with Julio last month and saw all the EF's in mint condition with no rust whatsoever. Julio thought I was crazy checking out stock EF's and was just amazed that they didn't have a touch of rust. Julio was like rust... what the hell is this rust you speak of? lol.
