There are many agencies in LA that do.

I've rented Porsches and Jaguars from Budget in Santa Monica.

Were you a high school senior using it for Prom night?

YIKES!

There's gotta be a 996 owner out there who'll take the bait!

Wasn't it a Blue Diamond Almonds tag line, "Eat all you want, we'll make more!"

Our school rented a hotel and we all got rooms 19 years ago. My parents knew better than letting me take one of their cars during prom. We partied and stayed clear of cars although we did arrive in style (and sober) and then the dad of one of my buddies took his car back home where it was safe.

The only ride I cared about was riding my prom date!!

Sheesh you'd expect him to know how to spell the name of the car. Maybe he should look for a gajuar or a masoratee...

Although there are many rental companies on this niche, I don't think they will rent for a driver under 25 years old!

The boy should get a Limo as he'll be wasted by the end of the night anyways....

Blue Ocean

Nope, that was Doritos.

"Crunch all you want, we'll make more" was the tagline of a moderately-successful ad campaign for Doritos-brand chips. The ads aired during the mid-1990s, and featured comedian Jay Leno.

The stupidity of parents consistently amazes me!

I bet I could find a a 924 he can rent. Didn't say whay type of Porsche.

I called him to offer up my 993 C4S, but he turned me down, said he was holding out for a 993 Turbo "S".

I hate to fly in the face of Rennlist wisdom but I gave my 993 to my neighbor's daughter and her boyfriend for their high prom --I remember how much I wdored the car when I was their age and what a kick they would get from having it

As it turned out it only cost me $2k in new wheels to resolve a flat spot caused by their driving over a hole in the road .... but hey you're only young once right ?

richardew

I wish. LOL You do have a point.
