Rent a BMW 3 or equivalent in NJ

April 22, 2012 6:59 PM

Want to rent a BMW 3 or equivalent when I am in NJ. Pick up Newark airport or any other NJ location within 60 miles of Newark Airport. I found websites that rent out exotic cars for like $2k a day. I am not looking for an exotic car. I just want something like a bmw 3 or audio a4 etc. Can anyone recommend a site or rental company? I can look up the rates but if you know them then feel free to mention it. Thanks!

Not sure what you mean by "equivalent", but generally the major rental companies have luxury cars of some sort... I just spot-checked Hertz at the Newark Airport location and you can get a Mercedes E Class for $170/day (for some random May weekend), a Mercedes SUV for a little more...

Enterprise rents BMWs at some of their California locations so you might give them a call and see if any NJ locations offer similar cars. Someone I know is currently renting A BMW 750LI from their Palm Springs location for a little more than 300 bucks/day. She had to arrange it over the phone and they brought it in from another office.

Zipcar has BMW 328s and Audi A3s for about $100-110/day in the Bay Area (insurance and gas are included in that price) - I'm sure they have them in NJ as well.
