exotic car rental...need input ASAP!!!
« on: August 13, 2013, 08:56:58 am »
hey guys,

My wedding is this saturday, and while we weren't going to rent an exotic car my bro has found these guys online.

We're in Ottawa so there aren't many of these exotic car rentals in town.

The price are VERY good almost too good...wanted to know if anyone has any experience with them or has heard of them before.

Thanks!!

I'll rent you my LX570 for 2 days for $1500

What exotics are there (except the SLS)?  List looks pretty limited.

Prices for the SLS must be listed incorrectly.  Way too low and match the prices for the Cadillac SRX below it.  I'd expect it to be priced more like the Bentley further down the list.

Waste of time for a wedding day IMO.  You'll have enough crap to think about and won't really 'enjoy' the car.  Save the exotic rental for some boys weekend down the line.

Mony would be better spent on other "Exotic" things for the bachelor party.

Not likely able to 'use' that exotic either! ;D

Listen to this guy man, I just had my wedding last November and the last thing I would have wanted was an exotic car. So much sh!t going on the day of you wont remember what you drove that day. Wait for a bit and go with the boys on a weekend.
Lighten up Francis.....

That is a terrible website. You would think they would check it and keep it up to date/accurate.

hey guys,

My wedding is this saturday, and while we weren't going to rent an exotic car my bro has found these guys online.

...



If your bro is suggesting the rental, let him do it.  I agree with the others who say wait till you can truly enjoy the ride.

monthly price for the benz is better than a lease... plus no insurance or maintenance? i'll take it. cheaper monthly than the clubman...

anywho... agree with everyone here... for my wedding, i brought my morgan... ended up being just silly and i had someone switch the car after some pictures were taken. spend the cash on a great bottle of booze and share with your wedding party...
i used to be addicted to soap, but i'm clean now

You guy have no imagination.  If I was silly enough to get married, I'd rent the SLS and do filthy, dirty things inside it with my wife.  Just because..... ;D
How fast is my 911?  Supras sh*t on on me all the time...in reverse..with blown turbos  :( ...

Thanks for the comments guys!

So i got a hold of them and they don't have any cars available for Ottawa  this weeekend. They do have a jag and an Aston in toronto, but too short notice to bring it over.

Yeah, but the wedding day is a bad time to plan that, unless you're pretty fast at the filthy dirty things, you'll be quite busy on your wedding day.  Not really enough time to enjoy the dirties.
