M35 or MB C class for a one day rental which would you choose?
Guys my 40th Bday is coming Friday, I think if the weather is nice in Seattle I would like to rent a nice car to drive that day. At Hertz Prestige collection I can rent a M35 or C class Benz for something like 184 bucks tax included. Which is the more fun, sporty car to drive? One that will make me not want to give it back?

I haven't been in a M35 but I drove a C300 for 15-20 mins and hated it.
Maybe if you could rent a C350 Sport it would be worth it but I think I'd rather have the M35.

I don't know all the details of your bday, but if you're going to rent a car, why not get something a little more special? not saying a c/m35 isn't special...
I'm just saying if you can (financially) I would get something a little more fun maybe coupe/roadster: 335,370Z,S2000,A5/S5,C6 Vett, G37 etc. Of course I wouldn't know if those are available or if you even care.
If it were my bday, and I could financially afford to treat my self, I would pick a sports car... either way, happy early bday, enjoy w/e you do in good health.

I would also look at Avis, as they have some nice stuff as well.

M35 hands down my cousin has a M45 and it's a great car very roomy and sporty. My friend rented a C6 vert from them as well and had it for the weekend it was a blast to drive. Hertz has cool cars.

I'm a little late with the pic of the rental because my cpu's net was down. The Hertz at the airport offered to upgrade me to a 2008 Corvette for 20 bucks more than the M35 so I took it. So the deal was 154.00 for a 24 hour rental of a Vette, unlimited miles.
I was kind of let down, the car feels like a tractor that can go 0 to 60 in 4 seconds. I do not like pushrods engines I found out, It is the opposite of BMW, Honda Smooth. It is loud, coarse and the car had 30k on it and felt like it had a lot more. I think a lot of people had abused it. It can go fast as shit but just too rough everywhere for me. Not bad, at least I got the Corvette thing out of my system.

Good on you. I'd like to drive a Vette someday, maybe a Chevette is what I can get.

I was planning to take the new MDX on a little roadtrip tomorrow but maybe I'll rent a Vette from Hertz for the day instead.

Look up "Corvette ZHZ" or "Hertz Corvette" on You Tube. You'll get the idea of why its 30K miles seem a lot more.....

I wish I had just stuck with the M35. The tranny in the Corvette was kind of thrashed. But damm its not cheap to rent these things. The m35 is 185 a day tax included.
