First renter question
I meant FIRST TIME RENTER! LOL
I am flying to LAX from YYZ tomorrow.
I have just got a rental deal from Priceline for Luxury car, $40/day, $166 after tax and fee (3 full days).
Is it very bad price? I am not feeling good about the price.
As for the car, the example is a Lincoln MKS, but does anyone know if there is any other option at LAX? I would much prefer a RWD car, ATS or Q50 maybe? How can I get the car I want?
Thanks for any input!

That's a very good price for a luxury car. Car rental prices can vary a huge amount by time of year and with particular events going on. $50/day for a mid size is a pretty good baseline for business travel, but I've done as cheap as $200/week (including fees) for a minivan in the off season that costs $500+/week at peak times.
LAX will probably have tons of cars, but getting anything in particular isn't predictable. Your best bet is to just ask at checkin when you pick it up.
