 but the only reason I said so is because they wont let you rent if you dont have it. I rented some beauties like Mustang, Hummer, Corv's, 300s etc at a very negligible price. By the way TRICK: tell them you are there on a business trip and they will give you some discounts if you open and account. It wont cost anything to open an account. I tried that with Budget and they worked 20% discount for me. Disclaimer: Individual experiences may differ.Last edited by D-Man : 15th May 2009 at 17:02. | |

| Its the defination of 'Paid' that you have percepted in your mind. The only cars I missed driving were Vintages. Anyways I ant that of a fan of those. This was when I was in my early teens, young, stupid, crazy, you know all that. So was it at the dealership? |

I've driven supercharged and tubrocharged cars by the dozen, but as they say: "There's no replacement for displacement"  The 55 probably has that boost whack to it, but what I love about the 63 is how composed it is on the corners! The CLS63 owned by the same dude is in comparison a sloppy handler. The SL63 however has no qualms in entering a beautiful drift at over a 100KM/h. Run in period, what run in period, the owner has been pushing the car from day one. 300KM so far on the odo in a little over 12 days, and we've been ripping the hell out of her! Driven few cars that feel more composed. Off the top of my head I can only mention the Gallardo, but even that is only better by a small margin. Oh and an extensively modded and lowered E46 euro M3 I drove in the US, run on 20" blades, that thing handled like it was on rails, so yeah the SL is definitely up there... DocG | |
