Default Anyone know where I can rent a supercar?

I have a high end customer coming to America for a 2 month vacation. He is looking to do the "American Dream" and drive across America from New York to LA, in a "new" musclecar. Camaro, Stang, Viper etc.

The problem I am having is that Hertz and the others will not let you pick up in NY and drop off at LA.

Anyone know of a unique type rental like that?

Trying not to cave in and let him put the mileage on the Boss302, plus I'd have to ship it to NY for him to pick up.

For reference, he has a diamond mine in Africa.

Thanks guys.

Someone at NastyZ had a great idea. I'll let him rent a Cobra or Camaro SS at the airport from a regular company like Hertz, drive it across country and then fly one of my guys out there to meet him and drive it back. That will be a lot cheaper than the specialty cars, and as a foreigner he really wants to drive a "new" American musclecar. Stang, Camaro or Challenger as long as it has a V8.

As a bonus, I'll get to give one of my better performing guys this task as a "bonus" and he can have a few days in LA or NY.

I use these guys when on my buying trips/vacation in the USA.

http://www.arguscarhire.com.au/

Online global booking- Ezi online system to check prices/insurance etc..[ I use the Gold option]
Ive never had an issue. They use multiple rental companies, so your guy might be best to call a local office to him to check the vehicle options. They use a random system as to who rents you the car. So it could be Dollar, or Alto etc. Most have a Challenger or Mustang but best to check.
I have found them to be the best value and they supplied a one-way mini van for my wife and I when we drove NYC to LA on a 3 week vacation,with no one way fee!

cheers Dave
