Hi all! Have not had my trip to SAN yet, still looking forward to the experience with Sixt.

It turns out that booking an XCAR (E-class, 5-series, etc) was cheaper on a 5-day rental than a LCAR (3-series, C-class) was for a 3-day. $29/day for a 5-series? Yes please!

Now I'm just curious what might be a Platinum double-upgrade on top of an XCAR reservation?

ECAR --> CCAR --> ICAR --> SCAR --> FCAR --> PCAR --> LCAR -->XCAR --> XDAR?

At that point, let's say I was hoping for an XDAR (S-class, 7-series). Would it even be worth booking XCAR? Wouldn't booking an LCAR be double upgraded to XDAR? That' saves me about $40 over the total rental.

Or... Since it isn't guaranteed, should I just be safe and stay with an XCAR rental?
