Default Goin down to Miami for Spring Break, Renting an Exotic :)

Just booked my flight to Miami Been thinking about this for weeks now, finally decided to pay the ridiculous flight fees to fly at this time and on such short notice.

Should be a great trip, being as I just turned 21, this is the ideal College Spring Break Vacation

I hope to come back with an shit show of pictures much like the Girls Gone Wild videos..

Can anyone in the area give me some places to check out? Or let me know if anything big is goin on that weekend (besides drunken college kids)

OK So I came up with a nice birthday present for myself. I am going to rent an exotic for a day while I am in Miami

I found this one place that will rent to a 21-year-old, I just hope my parents insurance can handle it

I just have on dilemma, Should I go with a Boxter S with manual transmission or a new E60 M5 (which is actually $30 cheaper to rent for the day)

I was planning on getting a Convertible cause I'll be in such nice weather, and not to mention the girls will be running towards me in a porsche drop top rather than a 4 Door BMW..

But then again, I really want to get behind of the V10 M5


Hopefully all goes well and I can get my hands on something nice..

The Boxster - probably easier to get insurance on (being a sub-300 vs. the M5's 500bhp)

Ans, for sure the drop-top is cooler in the hot weather. 8)

Have fun - and don't forget the pictures

Only go for the Boxster if you actually need a car to pull chicks, otherwise go with the better car (M5) and get the women the proper way.

Another option is to carry some chloroform with you in the M5, you can fit 3 chicks in at the same time.

club rendezvous. and of course, south beach, where all the hot mamas hang out. coral gables has some beautiful architecture and a lot of history..... and a lot of hot women too, lol. miami beach has excellent night life, and great food. a restaurant i would try would be casa larios, excellent cuban food. and stay at the palms hotel, its gorgeous, and its in miami beach, so you'll be in the middle of the action! have fun!

Thanks ferrarif1fan, I will definitely check out some of those places you've mentioned. I see you're from Palm Beach.. I was born in West Palm Beach in Jupiter.. only lived there till I was 5 though. It's great to go back now that I'm older

Wow. I really can't believe I didn't think of that before. I'm an idiot. M5 it is. I was initially thinking of getting a convertible (Boxter) because the weather will be perfect... the girls would of course, just be a plus..

Thanks Jabbas World



Crossing my fingers everything goes as planned...

well, besides the fact that i dont like the boxter, and i like the M5

go for the M5... V10+500 horses? vs. less then 300

i've driven as much as 420ish hp... and 300 feels nice... but 400 starts to get in that 'brutally AWSOME' zone.

m5 = high roller
Boxter S = i have a porsche, and i cut hair!



anyway, as mentioned, South Beach is the place to go... fish nets dubble as cloths somehow down there!

lots of pics are a nessesity enjoy your break
