Renting a FERRARI in HAWAII ?

[brunoffrance]

Hi there;
I am preparing my luggage for my Hawaii trip , last week of september and first week of october '09 and thinking about all I have to do there.
Sure I'll take my Macbook to get the well made map ( thank you, one more time, Rubber chicken ) and see all the major places of my favourite TV serie.
I thought it 'll be terrible to rent a FERRARI and drive along the coast as in the presentation, and why not, take THE photo , just in front of the Robin Master property.... May be a dream or just an illusion when I'll see the renting prices....;

So, is there some of you, who had found a good stuff to rent the Ferrari at a good price or to get one just for fun for a photo souvenir ?
If you have some advices or idea to do on the Magnum island , thank you by advance.

Do you have adresses and pictures ?

Hi Bruno,
I don't know the names of the rental places but I can get you to the area.Both places rent Luxury cars.I haven't seen a 308 for rent since the mid-90's.

I envy you!
Have a nice trip!

Bruno,
Here are a couple of links for you...Both have Ferrari's but not the 308.
The first one is for Maui and Oahu.

Here's another place, Ferrari Adventures in Waikiki.

By the way I found that in the guidebook Oahu Revealed. (Amazon link.) I've been meaning to mention this guidebook for some time, and I highly recommend it. I ended up reading it straight through like a novel, and I can't imagine there being a better Oahu guidebook. The same people make guidebooks for the other islands as well. I can't stress enough how good this guidebook is.

Hi RC,
That's the name I couldn't remember and it's one of the circles on the map.
I wonder if it's been reopened.

Edit...I called them..It's now Luxury Autos. The cat said "No one on Oahu rents the 308."

Wow, talk about a history of wrongdoing. I wonder if they're insuring their cars at the moment...

Nice researching Sam.

I recall my first trip to Oahu in 1987 there were a few places with 308's for rent and they were prominently displayed with "Rent Me" signs in the window. They were also listed in the tourist pamphlets at the Hotels. I did call about renting one back then, and I seem remember the price being around $195.00 but you had to take out mandatory insurance that at least doubled the price. I ended up renting a Jeep and having a blast. I even drove past The Estate a couple of times, of course having no idea that it was even there (what did we all do before the Internet???)

One week before my departure to Hawaii and I think the Ferrari 308 'll be a dream for ever... but it was not the goal , only for fun.
Lot of things to do about Magnum , even if driving an economic car...
Thank you for your help.

Bruno.
