Rent a car

http://www.gothamdreamcars.com/image...ette-z06-1.jpg

Im thinking of treating myself in the future to an exotic car rental for a day.

Z06 = $700 for 12hrs

http://www.gothamdreamcars.com/image.../ford-gt-2.jpg
Ford GT = $1000

http://www.gothamdreamcars.com/image...vanquish-1.jpg
Vanquish = $1050 - /1/2 day

http://www.gothamdreamcars.com/image...o-spyder-1.jpg
Gallardo Spyder =$1200 - 1/2 day

http://www.gothamdreamcars.com/image...ari-f430-2.jpg
F430 = $1150 - 1/2 day

They are also booking a "Dream Car Tour" where I can drive six different exotics (30 min.each car), taking a tour of 120 miles.

Which would you nig nogs pick?

I would go with something that I would never be able to have.

Those two dagomobiles have a transmission that is as sturdy (and as expensive) as crystal :-X

Gallardo for handling, not the spyder though. if thats all they had i would have a hard time choosing between the vanquish and the 430, ---- it i would do the tour because i gotta see what its like to drive that gt also

What a ------- waste of money. You could build a motor for that much.

It's for rich people who want to make a statement ::)...but I agree... definitely a waste. But it'd be a fun gift to receive, 12 hours of beating on a Ford GT would be fun :)

those are some pretty good rate. Lot of nice/expensive cars over Brevely hills are going for way more than that.

i.e. a 04 ish S500 would go for 850 a day and 50 cents to $1 per miles.

what a waste of money. id rather buy some crack and put the rest of the money in my motor.

Re: Rent a car
 
why dont you just save up and buy the z06?? for $1000 id rather build a motor for a honda or put it towards a car. or get a friend with a nicce car and ask him if you can drive it.

accordepicenter 10-24-2006 09:30 PM

Re: Rent a car

I would grab a Ferrarri.A ZO6 is bad ass but i could probably buy one in a few years so that isnt worth renting.

yea some people got money like that....im with you on that though, thats why i still own a honda, spend maybe a total of $20 grand including the car and it would own a zo6, acutally it would probably own all of those cars....but it would still be nice to drive one for a day

Prohibited Uses

The vehicles may not be used:

* by anyone not licensed to drive or whose Driver's License has been suspended or restricted
* for any illegal purpose or in connection with any illegal activity
* to carry persons or property for hire
* to push or tow anything
* to exceed any posted speed limits
* in any speed test, speed contest, race, rally, speed endurance contest, demonstration, or on or near any racetrack or road course (we're serious about this -- no insurance company on earth will cover the car while on the track, and that means we're both on the hook for a LOT of money)
* to teach anyone to drive
* on any unpaved surface

In the event of a violation of these Prohibited Uses, we reserve the right to remotely disable and retrieve the vehicle.

ok maybe not $20k but it would still be cheaper than $70k

the AM or the 430, ---- the Z06. The GT maybe. Renting the car to look like a baller, not to be a regular joe (lots of vettes (base models) on the road)

On the other hand, you could play a pretty sweet trick on someone. Acting like you bought them a ferrari for their birthday. bahahahahaha

One of the boss's at my company rents exotic sports cars. He owns the company so isn't short of cash. Pays $28k a year to be a member of a sports car club. Which means he gets about 30 days rental a year.

I've had a ride in the Aston, the Lambo but none of the others, he's also rented the Maserati Quattroporte, A 360 spyder and a few others.

I'd be tempted by the Ford GT, but really, for the ultimate driving experience, you simply won't beat a ferrari, i'd never own one, but i'd love to drive one.

BTW, it works out cheaper for my boss to hire those cars then own one for a year. And he gets to rag on them without worrying about something expensive breaking.

just sent the link to one of my buddies.. expect pictures of me next to at least the z06. i know this kid will rent one haha

Its a fatty sum of money, but if i was out of school and had a real job and went on vacation or something, I'm pretty sure I would do it. It is the opportunity to rape on SOMEONE ELSE'S exotic sports car. ---- the remote disable, just don't turn the car off. You can't tell me that if you had total freedom with some bastards ferrari that it wouldn't be at redline the entire time. Any of those cars would definitely need new tires half way through the 12 hours if I was driving. Cmon now, people pay big cash to go on a cruise or something. I'd rather go on a camping and hiking trip and end it blowing a grand to rape on a ford gt or ferrari or lambo for a day. And just think of the ----- potential :S
