How expensive is it in general (how much weight did you ship at what cost)? Did anyone ship from anywhere besides CA? Any crazy rules for shipping a car you wish you would have known beforehand? Any other words of advice are welcome. Thanks!

there are only 3 companies that ship cars to HI. I use Pasha.
If you drop the car yourself in Long Beach, it will be $1050 to ship it. You can not have anything in the car. They will check it.
I shipped stuff using Pods. Definitely the cheapest way. They will drop the pod at your house, you take as long as you want to fill it, then call them they pick it up and will deliver to your place in HI. You can have them store the pod until you are ready for about $225/month. A 16 ft pod cost about $6000 total. Moving companies will be a lot more.
