My only problem with driving it is how plain my car feels after the Ferrari.

Are you sure it's not your wife stopping traffic?
Italian V12???

x2...we looked into it in Florida last year, but everyone we talked to sounded shady and just could not get a straight answer from anyone on actual cost and availability...like they were all "brokers" and didn't actually HAVE the car. My son would $hit a brick if got one of those for the weekend. MY wife however could care less.

Anyway, let us know where you rented from and what you paid...please.

In Phoenix, daily rate for Gallardo is $1,295.00/day with 75 miles/day mileage allowance. Additional miles are $2.50/mile. Rate goes down if you rent it for 3+ or 7+ days. If you take it for a week, rate is $895.00/day, mileage allowance and over the limit cost stays the same.

Parklane Rental in Dubai has them for about 1100 USD per day. Mclaren MP4 and Ferrari 458 were around 1800 per day if I remember correctly.

Best deal I could find in Vegas was $550 for 6 hours (Ferrari or Lambo) - decided to do a Helicopter ride instead Lambos do look amazing though!!!
