This is what is in my daily driver. While it's a fun car, I would have been very disappointed if I had booked a Camaro. Glad they got you taken care of in SFO!

Couple more pictures
Did just over 900 miles in it and got 24.5 mpg (US gallons) or 29 mpg (UK) which was bloody amazing. Car shuts off 4 cylinders when doing highway driving to save fuel.
Honestly made me smile the whole time driving it.
Car at Joshua Tree
Only slightly worried my bag wouldn't fit in the boot opening. Boot was big enough for about 3 of my bag if you could get them through the opening.
Car in SFO. Was parked up looking like it was for upgrades. You can see another in the background missing the front plate.

I had a confirmed prepaid reservation for a Hendrick in FLL last Thursday. They didn't have any on site and said they were fully sold out for the boat show over the weekend. They were able to get me into a Mercedes-Benz SLC-300 convertible instead. It was still a fun car.

I don't understand how they can get away with "Model guaranteed" and then not have the car - it seems completely dishonest.
I once prepaid for a "jeep compass or similar" with Dollar at San Francisco Downtown, they didn't have any and gave me an SLC instead. I was happy in that instance but if I was hoping for a Camaro I would have been pretty pissed off.
Further to my HH rental story I also got stung with a $45 extra rental fee because I had picked up the car 1 hour earlier from LAX so my rental period ended 1 hour before I dropped it off. Complained to Hertz and they have refunded it.

Good to see at least 2 HH Camaros at LAS in this video by turbov6:
LAS walk round
Looks like Hertz have several in the fleet still as they are different number plates to those above.

I have booked the Hendricks camero for end of june for 1 day at LAS (vegas)
Wouldnt let me book via UK website, but did via US website, not cheap either ($137 without adding LDW & LIS)
Fingers crossed Hertz dont mess up and dont have it for me, planning on doing some miles to enjoy the car for the day !

The two I've rented recently were mid 20K mileage and condition wise they were fine. There was a replacement, non HH front spoiler, on the first one which I didn't notice but a fellow flyertalker did :-)
