Collision replacement car: the 2008 Lexus IS

If a car while yours is off the road is the plan, the 2008 Lexus IS is worth a look; here is why. After a collision, your insurer may pay for the rental once your adjuster approves it. When your adjuster approves a rental, we can bill your insurance company directly.

What the figures tell you

The 2.5L 6-cylinder, paired with a 6-speed automatic, drives it. 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.

The EPA rates it at 9.8 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 29 litres. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $171.50.

Space, size and seats

It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. Its 311 litre trunk is enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

When the IS makes sense

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends.

Renting the IS from CarmaCars

Tell us your dates and we check this car or the closest match. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.

How a booking comes together

The process opens with a request from you, which costs nothing and binds you to nothing. Our offer spells out the rate, the delivery fee if any, and the deposit. You pay only once you approve the offer.

A car's page shows the deposit and the kilometres included each day. From 7 days, the weekly rate takes over. A request can be for today, as long as the pickup is at least 2 hours away.

What to bring

An Ontario G2 or G licence and an age of 18 or more are the starting point. A young driver fee applies each day for drivers under 26. At the handover we check your licence and the card in your name.

For damage to the car itself, have your own policy (OPCF 27), a credit card with rental car coverage, or add the CarmaCars Protection Plan. The deposit comes about 1 hour before you get the car, not at booking. Every driver's licence and identity are checked before we confirm.

Next step

If something here is unclear, ask in your request; we reply in plain words.
