Currently debating whether to go with Avis (for the first time) and hope for / purchase an upgrade or go with Hertz on the following:

Preferred Plus (SK Silver)
Class E: Full Size (Ford Fusion or similar)
LAX
26/12-6/01

The price of the Ford Fusion/group E is around 265 USD. However, we would really like to get something cool and therefore considered booking an American Muscle with Hertz (Camaro SS/Mustang GT) but it costs 1340 USD.

I suspect I'm eligible for a free upgrade as Preferred Plus, but how much should I expect to pay per day for an upgrade into something like a Camaro SS/Mustang GT or maybe something like a BMW 7-series/Cadillac CT6? A group H costs around 800 USD for reference, but I reckon I need to get into a select series?
