A note on Ruby

If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Ruby. Ruby is about 1,005 km from Toronto, outside our delivery area.

Next door to Ruby are Lees Crossroads, Wexford and Mount Croghan.

Reading the spec sheet

The 2.0L 4-cylinder with rear-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

Combined fuel use is 8.0 L/100 km: about 24 litres for 300 km. For 1,000 km, budget about $140 at our price setting.

Space, size and seats

As a two-seat sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second.

When the MX-5 makes sense

It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.

Renting it

There is no exact match in our fleet today. Request it and we search for one, or take a similar car. Want a car for specific dates? Put them in the request and we check. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now.

From request to keys

First, a request: the car you like, when you need it, and where. No payment yet. The offer we send lists the car we confirm and the full price. When you approve the offer and pay, the car is booked for you.

Rates are set car by car and shown on each car's page. Short trips and long stays use the same request; the rate follows the length. Give us 2 hours or more before the pickup and we can usually make it work.

Checking your details

You need an Ontario G2 or G licence, valid for the whole rental, and to be 18 or older. The daily young driver fee is shown on each car's page, for drivers under 26. Payment is by a card in your name, shown with your licence at pickup.

Choose before pickup how damage to the car is handled: your policy with OPCF 27, your card's rental benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. The deposit is separate from the rental price and is returned after the rental. A quick licence and identity check happens before we confirm any booking.

When you know your dates

A request takes a few minutes and puts a real offer in front of you.
