Luup alternative and the 2008 Lexus SC

If a rental car is the plan, the 2008 Lexus SC is worth a look; here is why. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price.

The figures, translated

Its 4.3L 8-cylinder drives through a 6-speed automatic. 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.

Plan on about 37 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 12.4 L/100 km. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $21.70 at our price setting.

Good uses for the SC

It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.

Size and space

As a sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second. EPA lists 255 litres of luggage space, enough for about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.

Renting the SC from CarmaCars

Put this car and your dates in a request, and we reply with an offer. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.

How to book

The first step is a free request: which car, which dates, and how you want to get it. A staff member reads the request and sends the offer. We reply within 2 hours. You decide: approve and pay, or let it go. No charge either way until you approve.

The rates you see on a car's page are the rates in your offer. Book one day, one week, or up to 365 days at once. The shortest notice we accept before a pickup is 2 hours.

Requirements

You need an Ontario G2 or G licence, valid for the whole rental, and to be 18 or older. If you are under 26, expect a young driver fee each day; there is no upper age limit. Cars marked "no credit card needed" accept a debit card in your name; the others need a credit card.

If you have no auto policy and no card benefit, the CarmaCars Protection Plan is the third option, priced in your offer. A deposit applies to every rental. It is shown on the car's page and taken about 1 hour before pickup. A quick licence and identity check happens before we confirm any booking.

Over to you

The next step is yours: send a request whenever you are ready.
