Well it all depends. Rates vary but the easiest way is, if you are military or government employee (depending on your GS position). But since you are searching for a shipping company I suggest that you find the main one that the military uses.

2012 C63 AMG
I shipped 2 cars to Korea back in 08. The government paid for one since I was in the military and I paid for the other. The one I paid for cost me approx 1300.00 US and then another 110.00 US at the port. The cost included picking the car up at my house and being shipped in its own container not a roll on roll off.

With that being said shipping TO Korea is easier and cheaper since most cargo ships going to Korea are empty. When I shipped the car back in 09 it cost me over 2500.00 US since the ships are mostly full coming to the States. But it was worth it having my cars there and not having to buy a junker to drive around like I did the other 3 times I was stationed there.

Check the internet and you can find companies that will ship them there.
