Most places that claim to have a location in New Orleans actually just have the cars shipped in from Houston but the person I'm asking for needs it this weekend. Any ideas?

Enterprise in Metairie will fix you up with a Sebring convertible or whatever you want

Try Carbine Motorcars

I'm don't know if they do rentals but I'm sure they can point you in the right direction.

I think the Michael Scott specials are a bit out of our price range.

Hertz rents the "Dream Cars" collection at limited locations. They rent everything from high-end Mercedes to Ferraris and Lambos. They have different cars at each location... If you were in California you would have an amazing selection.

ETA- It looks like they only rent the Mercedes-Benz S550 and the Jaguar XJL in New Orleans. I have no idea how long you need to book in advance.

A Ferrari is going to run you around $1200+ per day... 75 miles a day included, $3 per additional mile.

Yeah, it seems like when they first launched this line that they had a couple of exotics in NOLA.

Meanwhile in Dallas...

Can you imagine what the service costs to run an exotic rental in New Orleans would be? The roads will simply swallow the cars. One drive through Lakeview and all of the wheels would be busted, new suspension needed, front air dam scrapped to hell. On top of that, they would need to ship most cars out to get dealer service.

No doubt. A guy down the street from my office has a Ferrari. I always want to wave him down and ask him how he can drive it on the roads around here. My suspension has needed major repairs twice in two and half years of living here, and it's nowhere near as high performance as a Ferrari suspension system.

There is a company called Gotham Dream cars that rents them. You can also just pay to drive one around a track a few times or pay for a number of miles that you can split between various cars.
