Try renting through American Casino Guide. They always have discount rates and coupons.

Must have just been problems with your particular dates. I just used code 6T for a 7 day August rental of a convertible on Maui, and the rental rate went down from $296 to $188 for the week! 
This is about the 8th time I've used 6T over the years, with great results still.
the 6T code worked like a charm for me last fall (saving more than 60%), but this year, it seems to generate higher rates when I try pricing out my dates. Has the code been changed to something else?

no luck with 6T so far, but luckily my travel companion has a code for his meeting that brought it down enough to handle. I did notice that playing with 6T had the rates coming down abit closer to my arrival dates - perhaps it's a capacity controlled discount that has a different effect on rates as you get closer to your rental date.

On Maui right now. Did the usual and great 6T code for $188 for a week-long convertible rental.
Arrived at Alamo OGG and got something new and different. In addition to the Chrysler Sebring convertibles I've always gotten here and which was confirmed on my reservation...this time I got a Chrysler PT Cruiser convertible.
We took it and really like it much better than the clunker Sebring. This PT Cruiser is the 2.4L Turbo Touring Edition. It's like being in a small roadster but sitting up off the ground higher. Nice looking roll bar with the top down. Handles great and I like being in the smaller profile car. Perfect for 2. Might get a little tight in the back seat and trunk with a family and lots of luggage though.
They pretty much will just put you in a Sebring unless you ask for the PT Cruiser at check-in. I don't think they have as many PTs as they do the Sebrings. Another passenger on the plane over gave me this tip. We're loving it (and the 6T code)!
