Exotic Car Rental in Florida?

Does anyone here know of a good, recommendable Exotic Car rental places in Florida (preferably Central Florida)? I'd like to rent a nice car for prom (possibly the week of) and need to start looking at prices and reservations.

So does anyone have a place I should check out?

(I'm interested in almost anything that's nice......Vanquish, 360, Murcielago, 911, etc. Even a Corvette Z06 or SL55 would be nice )

Just something that's faster than my 3.0........

I got a GS430 for my prom. You just have to get your parents to rent it for you, and be cool enough to let you drive it for the night.

Actually, you have to be 25 in Florida to rent a car. I think Budget rental does let 18 year olds rent cars in some parts of New York ....

Why rent an exotic? Just wasted money because the chicks ankles will probably be behind her ears later that night regardless of what car you have.

Cool site.. Can't believe the prices those places get for exotics.. I'd go for the Porsche.. and it's even the "cheapeast" sports car too!

(personally, I'd limo it. Get a damn-nice hotel room.. champagne, etc. and F all night long.)



Porsche 996
The Carrera Cabriolet is immediately recognisable as an icon of Porsche engineering. With its roofline flowing gracefully into the purposeful tail section, there's all the elegance, athleticism and dynamic appeal of the Carrera Coupé. Now featuring the same drag and lift coefficients as the standard 911, the Cabriolet is also one of the sleekest convertibles in the world today. The smooth aerodynamics offer a number of important benefits, including improved performance and more reliable handling at speed, as well as lower interior noise and fuel consumption.

Description and photo may differ from actual rental car.

Daily Rate: 449.00 USD
Mileage: 100 Free per Day $2.00 per additional

I have rented a few cars down in Florida in the past, forgot the name of the place (assuming they are still around).

Remember, if you get in an accident and its your fault....its your ass.

Any person who is going to be driving the car has to provide their own insurance information. If an accident is your fault, you are either going to have to pay cash to fix it or have a claim put into your insurance company.

That's ok, It could be worst. At least it's not like he couldn't get laid in a woman's prison, with a handfull of pardons

Last time I was in Ft. Lauderdale I stopped pass the Ferrari dealership next to the hotel and a sales person told me some guy had just wrecked a (360 Modena) rental and decided to pay out of his pocket instead of filing an insurance claim to come out cheaper.

He said the car 'got away from him' and swerved into a pole! He did some front/side damage and bent the front wheel.

The salesman told me they charged him rent for everyday it was being repaired

I think he said the OEM wheel was $1500 too.

You guys crack me up...This is pretty funny stuff with the aspect of getting laid and stuff, but in a second we'll adress the rental facts.

Why would you shell out $1,000 to rent a car for two days? Jeezus, you could get a limo and have it the whole fu(king night for that price. Either way, there is no guarantee you'll get laid. I'd take that $1,000, drive your own car and get yourself a whore guaranteeing your night.

Rentals in Florida can be had by an 18 year old. This is because you must be 18 to enter into a contract. Most rental places have an arbitrary guideline not to rent to those under 21 or 25 (like Budget or Enterprise, etc.) because of liability purposes, and often make you pay for extended liability coverage for being under age. Now, if someone rents that car for you and you go damage the car and kill someone and were not an authorized user, the liability coverage cannot be denied under the contract though you face indemnification from the rental insurance provider, but you are totally screwed for damage to the car and will be paying out of your own pocket as your insurance company won't pay it either (under the permissive use clause)...

And there is no way on God's green Earth an exotic rental company is gonna let your parents rent that ride and put you on as an additional driver. Your wet dream is is just that--all wet. Go to Yahoo and post an add for a whore. That's your best bet.:P

Just take the 3.0 or get a limo with all your friends. Spend the money on something better.

You guys.......You've got the wrong Impression......I don't want this car the chicks.....I want the experience of driving a car like that. The kind of car you pull up to a stoplight and necks break just to peak inside....the kind of car that will get my to 60 MPH with the slightest effort.....

This is for me......fuck the hoes.......

Hey, thanks for the site killer!

It's either going to be the 996 or the SL500....

Friday and Saturday of Prom......

Daddy will rent and give it to me, as long as I pay for it.

18 years of responsible acting and never getting into trouble have finally paid off.....sweet.

You wreck that car and you'll be fifty by the time it gets paid off.

Good choice on the 996 or SL500.
