Got this from the S2Ki boards, for those who were interested in renting exotics, you still have to wait until next year!

Damn, I bet you have to be 40 with a platinum MC to rent those things.

Wonder what kind of prices they are looking at?

I would love to find out what it would cost to rent one for a day, or even for a few hours, my dad used to own a ferrari back in the day, and I would really like to rent him one to drive on his birthday.

Dunno how well that would do in Calgary since you can't drive those cars 6 months out of the year. :dunno:

Is this Zahir the same guy that owns ZR Auto with all them Exotics?

I would rent a Ferrari for a day and take it for a scenic drive around the mountains. I hope I don't break anything or else it'll break the bank real good.

Hmm last time i checked , it was like 400 for like 4 hours for a hummer

900/hr for Viper
1600/hr for Ferrari.

But that was a few years ago

Oh ya also , you have to put your house mortgage on the rental , incase you crash it.

Theres that exotic car rental place in Calgary that rents a 360 modena but it's like $2500/day and you have to be over 35 plus they charge per km on top of the $2500.

Hopefully ZR auto is a little more affordable than this place.

Beverly Hills Auto rents out their blue Diablo for like 2200/week. That's about 300 dollars a day...

They also do Ferrari's, and if a customer wants a car to rent and they don't have it they will buy it. Talk about sweet service...:bigpimp:

Is Zahir the father of Salim by chance. The kid who drives the escalade with 26" spinners?

there is a few in vancouver ( i think their both called Rent-a-Benz), they have a lambo, 1 or 2 ferraris and some hummers and benz's. unfortunately i saw on W5 that the place is only used for tax evasion and money laundering by the owners. its like 2 grand a day but if u go over business hours(and sundays) apparently they charge for another day.

That's freaking expensive! I'll be content with my cars. I was hoping for $1K/day + Gas LOL
