The super cars you often find for rent are the many models under the Ferrari and Lamborghini name, both old and new. Most of their Ferraris are the more common Modenas and F430s models. There may still be the older classics like their Testarossas and F40s. But you won’t find any rare Enzo or FXX for rent. Lamborghinis are similarly constrained with just your Gallardos and the older Diablos and Countachs. But you’d be lucky to see a Lamborghini Reventon or a Murcielago that Bruce Wayne demolished in the new Batman Dark Knight movie.

You could find a few Bugattis as well. But they’re the older EB models as the Veyrons are just too expensively rare to be offered as a rentable item. Porsches are a bit on the lower wrung of the supercar status ladder but, yes, there are Porsche 997 Turbos and 911s as well. There are also Aston Martins from the James Bond movies, Audi R8s used by Tony Stark with his Rolls Royce Phantom in Ironman, and the usual Jaguars and Maseratis now under Ferrari name. Then there are the prestige sedans like your Bentley, Maybachs and the Rolls, high end SUVs from BMW and Land Rover as well as the Japanese Lexus and Infinity lineup.

It is rare that you can find cheap supercar hire companies out there as their rentable merchandises are not cheap. They are often specialized affiliates of the bigger car rental companies like Avis and they tend to deal only with expensive prestige cars. They have highly trained staffs that extend one of the highest levels of courtesy to its patrons. Maybe because they know the people they’d be dealing with often belong in the upper social strata.

You won’t get a chauffeured deal as these cars are not meant to be chauffeured. That’s better done with limousines. But super cars are meant to be relished more for the driving experience, hearing the 12-cylinder engine at the back or right at your back in most balance mid-engine configuration and controlling its nimble and spiteful response on the road. So if you have nothing better to do this weekend, contact your nearest supercar hire dealer.
