Luup alternative: the 1997 BMW Z3
For a rental car, the 1997 BMW Z3 is one of many cars on CarmaCars, each with its own page. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar.
Engine and fuel
The engine is the 1.9L 4-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive and a 5-speed manual. 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 combined figure, 10.0 L/100 km, means roughly 30 litres for 300 km. A 300 km weekend costs about $52.50 in energy at our price setting.
Space, size and seats
As a two-seat sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second. The body is 4.03 m long and 1.69 m wide. Parking on city streets is easy.
A good match for
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a summer weekend or a special occasion more than a move.
Can I rent it?
Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. Request this exact car: a request asks us to look for one for your dates. A request for your dates gets you an offer from a person. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
The booking steps
Booking starts online: pick the car, set the times, and send the request at no cost. Our team answers with an offer: the confirmed car, the dates and the full price. Your card is charged only when you approve the offer.
Each car's calendar shows the days it is already booked. Trips of 7 days or more use the weekly rate, and shorter trips never cost more than it. Allow 2 hours or more between your request and the pickup time.
Driver requirements
Every driver must be 18 or older with an Ontario G2 or G licence. We accept young drivers; those under 26 pay a daily fee. Cars marked "no credit card needed" accept a debit card in your name; the others need a credit card.
Liability to others is in the rate. Damage to the car is handled by your policy (OPCF 27), your card's rental benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan, priced in your offer. A deposit is held before each rental; the amount is on the car's page. A quick licence and identity check happens before we confirm any booking.
