Rent-A-Racer Returns to Hertz
For most of us the idea of renting a car is none to exciting; oh sure you can upgrade to the luxury model and get the Caddy but it's no race car. There was a time though when you could call up your local Hertz Rent-A-Car and request a Shelby Mustang GT350H! The Hertz Rent-A-Racer program offered you the chance to rent a black and gold 1966 GT350H for just $17 a day and $.17 per mile. The stories are of what would happen to these cars are legendary and not surprisingly Hertz discontinued the program due to the high cost of repairing these rental race cars and every increasing insurance premiums.
Most thought the program would never return but Edmunds.com is reporting that Ford will be producing 200 black and gold Mustang GT's for Hertz. UPDATE: Click Here for all the details of the Hertz GT350H rental program.
