Looking for a IS-F, logistics of shipping from mainland?
 

So I'm in the market for a used IS-F 2008-2010, just missed out on a deal for a white 2010 with 80k miles for 28,300 out the door from Servco Honolulu without any negotiating hassle (father used to be upper management for Servco in the 90's and had an in with the top guys there). Deciding that looking to the mainland might be my best option. My max budget is 28000, but if I'm going to have it shipped I need to factor that in. Finding one in the Los Angeles area would be easiest since its a coastal city with all the freight carriers to Hawaii in the area and I have friends and family there that can check the car out for me, as well as the fact that I'm there every year during the first week of July. But if I were to look nationwide, how would the logistics of getting it to me work out as far as shipping, payment without getting scammed and having the car checked out? Anyone have any insight to this?

And hey if you looking to sell, I'm looking for a:
2008-2010 (preferably 2010)
Any color except black (preferably white)
Black interior
Less than 90k miles
As stock as possible

Thanks for anyones time.
