So I'm getting married in July and we're going on a 2+ week honeymoon to Europe. We're flying into Munich, renting a car and basically visiting a few friends/family in between the actual honeymoon. Long story short, I currently have a reservation for a BMW M440 convertible, but I'm trying to figure out what they have in their fleet. Cost isn't that major of a concern, within reason. The current reservation I have is a bit over $2k.
I was looking at the Porsche 911, but not only is that around $5k, but the mileage restriction would likely screw me. Does anyone know if they have any Porsche Caymans in their fleet? S4 convertibles? Any thoughts would be appreciated.
BMW is a nice car and all, but we have a 5 series at home, so I'd rather try out something different.
Everything connected with Porsche is incredible expensive. I wouldn't pay for it as I'm not s big Porsche-fan and think BMW is with comparable engine the better car.
Apart from that, there are 2 different booking types at Sixt. If you book the exact model, you get exactly what you booked. There is for example the M5, 911 GTS (there is a big difference between a small 911 and a Turbo), M8 and G-Class (worst car - highest price)). Then there is also: or similar. To my astonishment, they also offer this for a 911 convertible. So it may be that you get a BMW or Mercedes instead of a 911. You have to be careful. In the range up to €2000, everything seems to me to be "or similar", so you can often choose what you want on the spot.
Do you have luggage? Then a 911 would indeed be "sporty".
