Las Vegas is one of the most extravagant cities in the world. The vibrant nightlife and the endless entertainment options are prime reasons why visiting Las Vegas is on most people’s bucket list. Before you decide to visit the city, it’s important to decide which car you want to rent to explore Vegas in style.
You can’t go wrong with a supercar but not all supercars are created equal. When we think of supercars, arguably the first image that appears in the minds of most people is a Ferrari and rightly so. The esteemed automaker has a history of producing the finest supercars in the world, which make Ferrari the perfect car to capture the essence of Vegas. This blog will serve as a guide for which Ferrari you should rent on your trip to Vegas.
[title_inner_large center=”0″]2017 Ferrari 488 Spider [/title_inner_large]
The best compliment we can give to the Ferrari 488 is that it’s practically impossible to ignore. Whether it’s the car’s exquisite design or the purring of its engine, the Ferrari 488 turns heads wherever it goes. However, it’s no surprise that the car’s best features lie under the hood. The Ferrari 488 is powered by a 3.9-liter V8 engine that produces 661hp. This allows for instant acceleration as the car sprints from 0 to 60 in just 2.7 seconds. Not only that, the interior of the car has been revamped with a multifunctional steering wheel and plush bucket seats.
[title_inner_large center=”0″]2013 Ferrari 458 Italia [/title_inner_large]
If the 488 falls out of your budget, you could opt for the 2013 Ferrari 458 Italia. The car is predictably classy and provides the ultimate supercar experience on the road. It’s powered by a 4.5-liter V8 engine that allows the 458 to race from 0 to 60 in an astonishing 3.5 seconds. If you’re looking to test the car’s speed, take it down to the track and witness the raw power of the Ferrari engine. The 458 can reach a hair-raising top speed of 198 mph. Another feature of the car is the ample legroom which allows you to be comfortable even when you’re stuck in traffic or out on a long drive.
[title_inner_large center=”0″]Ferrari California T Convertible [/title_inner_large]
Convertibles are meant to be eye-catching. The Ferrari California T Convertible is fittingly a sight for sore eyes, thanks to its breathtaking design. The California T is the automaker’s attempt to make the car more accessible for daily use which is why they’ve added extra luggage space to maximize the utility of the car. In addition, the California T’s 3.9-liter V8 engine and seven-speed dual-clutch transmissions ensure that even when you rent Ferrari’s “softest” car, you get the full Ferrari experience.

[title_inner_large center=”0″]Spectacular performance [/title_inner_large]

The car is powered by a 5.2-liter V10 engine that produces 540hp. With one swift push of the throttle, the R8 races from 0 to 60 in an astonishing 3.5 seconds. As this is Audi’s flagship model, it’s no surprise that the car is undeniably quick.
The seven-speed dual-clutch transmission performs admirably in all conditions. Whether you’re navigating through traffic or pushing the throttle to the limit, ride quality is maintained. Another distinct feature of the R8 is the various driving modes it offers. You can choose between four driving modes: Auto, Dynamic, Individual, and Comfort. These modes enhance your driving experience and allow you to adapt to varied conditions.

If you’re spending hundreds of dollars renting an exotic car, you need to do everything you can to make sure your plan goes the way you’ve imagined it. And that includes not making these common rookie mistakes:
[title_inner_large center=”0″]1. Not Double-Checking the Ownership Legalities[/title_inner_large]
Many car rental services don’t actually own the cars they’re renting out to bypass the legalities, financial and insurance procedures. It’s simply easier for them to rent out some of the cars that are registered in someone’s name.
The troubles of driving someone else’s car aren’t worth it. In case of any accidents or damages to the car, you’ll be liable to compensate the owner and not the insurance company. So don’t trust the rental company’s word and always ask the manager to show you the relevant documentation to make sure the car has rental insurance.
[title_inner_large center=”0″]2. Trusting Stock Photos[/title_inner_large]
New car rental services often upload stock pictures downloaded from the internet. They do this to hide any defects in the car. If the company doesn’t have many online reviews and the pictures look a bit too authentic, do a reverse Google image search. This will let you know if the picture is actually of the car you’re renting or not.
[title_inner_large center=”0″]3. Overspending on Insurance[/title_inner_large]
Salespersons at car rental services know that you’re afraid of having to pay huge amounts of money for any damages. That’s why they push for extra insurance that comes with the exotic car. However, it’s not necessary to purchase any additional rental insurance. It’s advisable to go through your own insurance policies to see if it provides rental insurance. Most comprehensive policies do compensate for damage to rented cars.
[title_inner_large center=”0″]4. Not Inspecting the Car in Advance[/title_inner_large]
One faulty assumption that first time renters usually make is that an exotic car must be in perfect condition. After all, the car rental service has a reputation to maintain. But that’s not the case.
Always make sure to check for any previous damages caused by other drivers both inside and outside the car. Don’t consider it beneath you to take pictures of any dents and scrapes for evidence. Note down the current damages and make sure the management mentions them in the rental agreement.
At Select Exotic Cars, our employees are trained and accommodating of all of our customers’ needs. We are one of the most reputable car rental services in Las Vegas and our reviews speak for themselves. Contact us at +1-702-749-8411 to discuss the various rental packages we provide.

It’s impossible to think of sports cars and not have an image of the Porsche’s iconic 911 immediately pop up in your head. Porsche was founded by Ferdinand Porsche and had humble beginnings. But the company quickly made a name for itself by producing brilliant sports cars that were years ahead of their time.
[title_inner_large center=”0″]911’s Iconic History[/title_inner_large]
The 60s saw disruption become the norm but while many of the era’s fads eventually faded away, one iconic disrupter became immortal. Porsche produced the first 911 in 1965 through today. Looking at the evolutionary timeline of the 911, you can see that the car retains much of the original concept in terms of design.
Many people may not be aware of the fact that the original 911 was named 901. In the early 60s, French automobile manufacturer produced their 203 and 403 models. They sent a letter to Porsche claiming trademark over any car names with three digits and a zero in the middle. So instead of changing the name completely, Porsche simply replaced the 0 with a 1, giving birth to the iconic 911 we know of today. The 1963 model had 130 horsepower with precision steering and fantastic acceleration. The 911 became an instant sensation all around the world.
Seven generations and more than 20,000 racing victories later, Porsche built the beautiful one millionth 911 model in 2017. Porsche proudly claims that 70% of 911s produced are still on the road.
[title_inner_large center=”0″]The GT3 RS[/title_inner_large]
Porsche decided to take their racing cars and put them on the road. They introduced the GT3 model in 1999 A stripped-down, lightened and amped-up version of the 911, a new racing class called the ‘GT3’ was introduced. With the GT3, Porsche pushed its 911 line into supercar category, making it the most diverse sports car on the market.
Porsche decided to take the GT3 one step further. In 2004, he unveiled the GT3 RS. The ‘RS’ stands for ‘Racing Sport’. This extreme model has no rear seats or sound insulation and air conditioning is optional. The GT3 RS is only for the adrenaline junkies who want to blast a hole in the space time continuum.
The latest GT3 RS has a 6 cylinder, naturally aspirated engine that produces 520 horsepower at 9000 RPM. It accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in only 3.2 seconds and has a top speed of 193 mph.

The Huracan Spyder is the latest addition to the Lamborghini family. It’s essentially identical to the older coupe model with one obvious difference, the convertible roof. The soft-top collapses, and folds back within 17 seconds and is available in black, brown or red.
Lamborghinis are a class of their own. Each Lamborghini is defined by its notorious absurdity factor and the Huracan Spyder doesn’t disappointment.
If you’re planning to rent out a Huracan Spyder, here are a few things it will teach you:[title_inner_large center=”0″]The Loudest V10[/title_inner_large]Flipping the red on/off engine switch and firing up the V12 engine almost feels like you’re in a cockpit of an F-16 fighter jet.
There’s a 5.2-liter V10 that produces 602 horsepower coupled with a 7-speed dual clutch transmission for gear changes.
It features an All-Wheel-Drive (AWD) system that can send 50% of the torque to the front wheels or up to 100% of the torque to the rear wheels.
You can choose from three engine configurations; Strada (cruising), Sport or Corsa (race) modes. In Strada mode, the engine behaves in a relatively tempered manner.
Switch to Corsamode and you unleash the relentless V10 engine. You’ll have to wait a few seconds before revving up the engine as the computer safety system limits RPM to about 5500. Once the engine is ready, you can put the pedal to the metal. Full-throttle upshifts to 8000 RPM and produces a roaring, almost unbelievable sound.[title_inner_large center=”0″]It Can Spit Fire[/title_inner_large]In the most exotic supercars, the exhaust system can sometimes shoot flames when there’s unburnt fuel in the pipes. Only a few months ago, Ferrari recalled 2,100 of its cars due to vapor leaks that lead to the cars catching fire. In June, Porsche had to recall its Panamera models in North America after reports of fires.
The Huracan Spyder’s mesmerizing spectacle of shooting flames isn’t a cause for concern. The Italian manufacturers have perfected their design in order to allow the engine to do just that. It’s totally safe, looks cool and gives you instant street credibility.
[title_inner_large center=”0″]You’ll Get Special Treatment[/title_inner_large]Pull up to a crowded lot in the Huracan Spyder and you can be sure to receive special treatment. People will move aside and attendants will help you navigate your $250,000 supercar. Even the police will stand guard and help you cross that mean speedbump safely.

If you’ve ever rented a car, you probably know what rental insurance is and what it entails. There have been reports of salespersons using aggressive tactics to pressure customers into buying their company’s insurance. Their motivations (huge commissions) are not to be trusted.
If you fail to ask any questions about the coverage they want you to purchase, you might end up paying more than you should.
Here are a few things you should know:
[title_inner_large center=”0″]Rental Car Reimbursement Coverage[/title_inner_large]There’s a difference between rental car insurance and rental car reimbursement coverage.
If your personal car is sitting at a garage after an accident that severely damaged it, rental car reimbursement coverage would pay for a rental car until your car is back in shape.
Most insurance policies include rental car reimbursement coverage as part of their package. So it’s worth checking with your insurer before making any decisions. The coverage includes all costs including any extra charges for insurance.
[title_inner_large center=”0″]Accidents and Theft[/title_inner_large]Car rental services may also provide a Loss-Damage Waiver (LDW), also known as a Collision Damage Waiver (CDW).
Car theft is a serious problem in the U.S with research indicating that every 40 seconds a vehicle is reported stolen. For an extra charge, the rental company will guarantee that they won’t hold you liable in case of any accidents or car theft.
If you have a comprehensive insurance policy you’ll be covered automatically. But you’ll still have to pay the deductible amount. If your insurance policy doesn’t extend the benefits to a rental car, it’s a good idea to get a CDW provided by the rental company.
[title_inner_large center=”0″]Damage to Others[/title_inner_large]The car rental service may offer you supplemental liability protection. This policy covers your losses in case of any damage you caused to others.
All car insurance policies cover liabilities in case of damage to others. You should only consider purchasing supplemental protection if you don’t have any insurance at all or have the bare minimum.
[title_inner_large center=”0″]Personal Injuries[/title_inner_large]If you purchase personal accident coverage from the rental service, you’ll be compensated for the complete medical costs in case of injuries to you or your passengers.
Your auto insurance policy may have a benefits that include personal injury protection. But if your policy doesn’t extend benefits to your passengers, you may want to opt for insurance provided by the rental service.
