So You Want to Rent an Exotic Car in Miami: The FAQ Guide That Actually Tells You What You Need to Know

By James Hernandez, Fleet Manager at Monarc VIP

Let's be honest - there's regular "driving around Miami," and then there's "making valets nervously adjust their bow ties as you approach" driving around Miami. If you're reading this, you're interested in the latter.

After three years of watching first-timers grip Lamborghini steering wheels with the white-knuckle tension usually reserved for bungee jumping, I've compiled answers to the questions you're actually wondering about - not just the corporate policy stuff.

This guide cuts through the usual rental jargon to tell you what really happens when you put down your credit card and pick up the keys to a vehicle worth more than most people's homes. From "will my regular insurance cover this beast?" (spoiler: probably not) to "where can I park this thing without having a panic attack?" - we've got you covered.

Vehicle Selection & Availability

What types of exotic cars are available for rent in Miami?

At Monarc VIP, we don't stock vehicles – we curate them. Our Miami fleet includes:

Each undergoes maintenance after every rental because nothing kills a Miami vibe faster than a check engine light. For our complete collection, visit our exotic car fleet page.

Which exotic car is best for a first-time renter?

First time in an exotic? Let's not start with a vehicle that requires pilot training:

  1. Porsche 911: German engineering that forgives your mistakes before you even make them

  2. Mercedes G63: The exotic SUV that says "I have taste, but also possibly children"

  3. Corvette C8: America's middle-finger to European supercars, now with the engine where it belongs

These give you the exotic experience without the "how do I explain this to my insurance company" factor of more extreme models. For more guidance, see our how to choose the perfect exotic car rental guide.

Can I switch between different exotic cars during my rental period?

Absolutely. Our "Miami Sampler" package lets you experience multiple personalities during your stay. Drive the practical Lamborghini Urus to dinner with the in-laws, then switch to a screaming Ferrari 488 once they've gone to bed. Available for rentals of 3+ days with about an hour for the swap – just enough time to explain to your partner why you need another exotic car.

Pricing & Payment

How much does it cost to rent an exotic car in Miami?

Let's talk straightforward pricing for these exceptional vehicles:

Luxury Sports Cars: $395-$595

  • Corvette C8, Porsche 911 – impressive performance with accessibility

Luxury SUVs: $595-$995

  • Mercedes G63, Cadillac Escalade – commanding presence with practical comfort

Supercars: $995-$1,495

  • Ferrari 488, Lamborghini Huracan – true exotic performance and style

Ultra-Luxury: $1,295-$1,895

  • Rolls Royce Ghost, Lamborghini Aventador – ultimate luxury and exclusivity

Multi-day rentals earn you discounts: 10% for 3-day rentals and 15% for weekly rentals – we reward longer experiences. For current pricing details, check our Miami exotic car rental prices guide.

What additional costs should I expect beyond the daily rate?

The fine print that's actually important:

  • Security deposit: $2,500-$10,000 (fully refundable, assuming you return something that still resembles a car)

  • Additional mileage: $3-$7 per mile beyond daily allowance (100 miles/day) – these engines aren't meant for cross-country road trips

  • Delivery/pickup service: Complimentary for 2+ day rentals within Miami, because we're nice like that

  • Additional driver fee: $50 per additional driver – so your buddy can also feel inadequate about their daily driver

  • Premium insurance coverage: $79-$149 per day – peace of mind isn't cheap, but neither are Ferrari fenders

  • Fuel: Return it with the same fuel level, or we'll refill it (at prices that make airport gas stations look reasonable)

No hidden surprises here – we're transparent about costs because exotic car rental karma is real. For every detail, see our exotic car rental terms and conditions.

What forms of payment do you accept?

We accept all major credit cards from Visa to Amex. We don't accept:

  • Debit cards for security deposits (the rental costs less than the car is worth, surprising no one)

  • Cash (this isn't 1983)

  • Prepaid credit cards

  • Venmo/Cash App (we love technology, just not for $250,000 vehicles)

The credit card must be yours, in your name, with enough available credit for both the rental cost and deposit hold. Your college roommate's card doesn't count, no matter how much he owes you.

Requirements & Eligibility

What are the age and license requirements for renting an exotic car?

The bare minimums for getting behind these wheels:

  • Minimum age: 21 years for most vehicles

  • Driver's license: Valid for at least 2 years, without a collection of violations that would make an insurance agent faint

  • International renters: Valid passport plus either an International Driving Permit or valid license from your country

  • Insurance verification: Proof of personal auto insurance with rental coverage


Do I need special insurance to rent an exotic car?

Standard insurance policies often have limitations when it comes to high-value exotic vehicles. Here's what you need to know about insurance requirements:

  1. Full Coverage Required: We require all renters to provide proof of comprehensive insurance coverage that explicitly covers exotic vehicle rentals

  2. Insurance Verification: Our team will verify your coverage before your rental begins

  3. Credit Card Coverage: While some premium credit cards offer supplementary coverage, this typically doesn't meet our full requirements

We strongly recommend contacting your insurance provider before your rental to confirm your policy covers exotic vehicles at their full value. This small step ensures a smooth rental experience and proper protection for both parties.

For international customers or those with specific insurance questions, please contact us directly through our website before making your reservation.

What driving experience is required for high-performance vehicles?

While we don't demand a racing license, our team can tell if you're in over your head. For serious machines like the McLaren 720S or Lamborghini Aventador, we hope you have:

  • Experience with something faster than a minivan

  • Comfort handling substantial horsepower

  • Understanding that rear-wheel drive + rain + enthusiasm = physics lessons

First-timers get extra attention during orientation. For those wanting more comfort, we offer 30-minute practice drives with our specialists (who have nerves of steel and excellent health insurance). Check our exotic car safety in Miami guide for useful tips.

Booking & Reservation Process

How far in advance should I book an exotic car rental?

Planning ahead isn't just polite – it's necessary:

  • Peak season (December-April): 2-4 weeks, because everyone wants to flex in Miami winter

  • Special events (Art Basel, F1 Grand Prix): 1-3 months, when even the hotel bellhops are driving Maseratis

  • Specific rare models: 3-4 weeks minimum, because some cars are rarer than common sense

  • Off-peak times: 3-5 days is usually enough when the crowds thin out

For same-day "my regular rental fell through and I refuse to drive a Nissan Altima" emergencies, call us directly via our contact page.

What is the security deposit, and how is it handled?

The security deposit – that number that made you check your credit limit twice:

  • Amount: $500-$2,500 depending on vehicle value

  • Process: Authorized on your card at pickup (not charged unless things go wrong)

  • Release timeline: Released within 24-48 hours of return, though your bank may hold it for 3-7 business days

  • Reality check: It temporarily reduces your available credit

It's fully refundable as long as you return the car on schedule, undamaged, with fuel, and without a newfound friendship with the Florida Highway Patrol. For tips on keeping your deposit safe, see our 12 critical mistakes to avoid guide.

Can I modify or cancel my exotic car reservation?

Life happens. Our policy accommodates that (within reason):

  • Modifications: Changes up to 48 hours before pickup are free – swap models, dates, or times

  • Cancellations:

    • 7+ days notice: Full refund (we're not monsters)

    • 3-6 days notice: 85% refund

    • 24-72 hours notice: 50% refund (we had to turn others away)

    • Less than 24 hours: No refund

Reserve early with confidence, knowing you have flexibility right up until the rental date.

Vehicle Delivery & Return

Do you offer delivery and pickup services for exotic car rentals?

We'll bring your exotic chariot to you:

  • Miami Beach/Downtown/Brickell: Free delivery for 2+ day rentals (because that's where the action is)

  • Extended Miami area: Free delivery for 3+ day rentals

  • Fort Lauderdale: $75 delivery fee (waived for 3+ day rentals – we're not driving a Ferrari up I-95 for a one-day rental)

  • Miami International Airport (MIA): Free curbside delivery for 2+ day rentals

  • Fort Lauderdale Airport (FLL): $75 delivery fee (waived for 3+ day rentals)

  • Hotels/Resorts/AirBnBs: Available throughout Miami-Dade County

Our delivery specialist will appear at your location like an automotive fairy godparent, handle the paperwork, and ensure you know which button launches the missiles (kidding, that's an option we don't offer... yet).

What happens during the vehicle check-out process?

Our delivery process is thorough but efficient:

  1. ID and insurance check (yes, we really need to see these)

  2. Security deposit authorization (the moment your credit card has an existential crisis)

  3. Detailed walkthrough with condition report

  4. Tech orientation (so you don't have to Google "how to start Lamborghini" while sitting in a Lamborghini)

  5. Driving tips specific to your vehicle (every exotic has its quirks)

  6. Paperwork signing (yes, reading it is actually important)

  7. The magical key handover moment

The whole process takes about 20-30 minutes – we document everything meticulously because memories get foggy when deposit returns are discussed. Learn more in our complete guide to exotic car rentals in Miami.

Are there mileage limits on exotic car rentals?

Yes, because these cars aren't meant for road trips to Canada:

  • Standard allowance: 100 miles per day (plenty for Miami showing-off)

  • Weekly rental bonus: 800 miles per week (100 extra free miles)

  • Monthly rental bonus: 3,500 miles per month (500 extra free miles)

  • Additional mileage fees: $3-$7 per mile depending on model (more expensive cars = more expensive miles)

For the ambitious drivers, we offer custom mileage packages at better rates. Unlimited mileage is available on select models, though we may call to check you haven't decided to drive to Alaska.

Special Situations & Services

Can I take my rented exotic car to the Florida Keys or out of state?

Our standard territory includes:

  • Miami-Dade County: Cruise anywhere – this is your playground

  • Broward/Palm Beach Counties: Included – spread the envy northward

  • Florida Keys: Permitted with notice – that Overseas Highway was made for exotic cars

  • Out-of-state travel: Possible with advance arrangement and additional fee

Key West makes for an amazing exotic car journey – check our scenic routes guide for the best stops. And yes, all vehicles have GPS tracking – it's not that we don't trust you, but... actually, that's exactly it.

Do you offer chauffeur services for exotic car rentals?

For those who prefer being envied from the back seat:

  • Hourly service: From $95/hour (4-hour minimum)

  • Daily service: From $750 for 10 hours

  • Special events: Wedding packages, corporate events, "make my ex jealous" packages

  • Nightlife packages: When you want to enjoy Miami's libations without worrying about your $300,000 responsibility

All chauffeurs are professionally trained, background-checked, and experienced with exotic vehicles. They also excel at pretending not to notice your terrible karaoke to the car's sound system. See our luxury chauffeur services for details.

What happens if there's damage to the vehicle during my rental?

If the unthinkable happens:

  1. Report immediately: Call us before the tears dry

  2. Document everything: Photos, notes, witness statements if applicable

  3. Police report: Required for any accident – even minor ones

  4. Claims process: We'll walk you through it step by step

Minor incidents (wheel rash, small scratches) usually cost $500-$1,500 to repair. We don't profit from damages – we just restore the vehicle to its pre-rental condition. Being honest about incidents always works out better than the "maybe they won't notice" approach.

Vehicle Usage & Operation

What type of fuel do exotic cars require?

These thoroughbreds don't drink regular:

  • Standard requirement: Premium unleaded (93 octane)

  • Preferred brands: Shell V-Power or Mobil Synergy Supreme+ (yes, the cars are picky)

  • Return policy: Same level as delivery – we don't expect full if you received it at half

How do I operate the advanced features in exotic cars?

Modern exotics have more computing power than early space shuttles:

  • Personalized walkthrough: We'll show you the important buttons (and which ones to avoid)

  • Digital guides: Access to manuals for when you forget

  • Support line: Call us before you press that mysterious unlabeled button

  • Video tutorials: Model-specific guides for visual learners

Common questions include launch control operation, driving modes, convertible tops, and navigation. There's no shame in calling to ask how to open the gas tank – we've heard it all.

Where can I park an exotic car safely in Miami?

Parking an exotic requires strategy:

  • Valet parking: Your best friend (tip well – they control your car's fate)

  • Private garages: Whenever possible

  • Monitored lots: With actual humans watching

  • Avoid: Street parking, narrow self-park garages, anywhere your car would make an attractive selfie background for strangers

When possible, request corner spots or areas visible to staff. Our guide to Miami night drives includes parking recommendations for popular destinations.

Exotic Car Experiences & Events

What are the best driving routes for exotic cars in Miami?

Miami was designed with exotic cars in mind:

  1. Ocean Drive & South Beach: The parade route of dreams (early morning or sunset to avoid traffic)

  2. Julia Tuttle Causeway: Skyline views that justify the rental price

  3. Coconut Grove & Coral Gables: Elegant neighborhoods with roads smooth as butter

  4. Key Biscayne: Coastal beauty with room to breathe

  5. Alton Road to North Beach: Urban cruising where being seen is the point

Our scenic drives guide has detailed routes, or ask us for custom maps based on your preference for "being seen" versus "enjoying the drive."

Can I use a rented exotic car for photoshoots or social media content?

Miami + exotic cars = content gold mine:

  • South Pointe Park: Ocean and skyline backdrops that scream "I've made it"

  • Wynwood Walls: Urban art meets automotive art

  • Vizcaya Museum: Old-world elegance for refined tastes

  • Design District: Modern luxury complements your ride

We encourage social media documentation – tag us and we might feature you! For professional results, see our ultimate guide to exotic car photography in Miami.

Do you offer exotic car experiences beyond standard rentals?

The car is just the beginning:

  • Yacht & Exotic Car Packages: Because choosing between land and sea is unnecessary

  • Miami Drive & Dine: Reservations at restaurants where your car fits the dress code

  • Group Drives: Join fellow enthusiasts for organized routes

  • Car Meetups: Access to gatherings where your rental belongs

Contact our concierge team to design experiences that make regular vacations seem like watching paint dry.

After Your Rental

What is the procedure for returning an exotic car rental?

All good things must end:

  1. Meet our specialist at the arranged location

  2. Walk-around inspection: A joint review of the vehicle condition

  3. Fuel check: Confirming you've refilled as agreed

  4. Mileage verification: Hopefully close to what you estimated

  5. Personal item check: We've found everything from designer sunglasses to... things we don't mention in polite company

  6. Final receipt: Provided electronically

  7. Deposit release: Initiated within 24 hours of return.

The whole process takes about 15 minutes unless there are concerns. For airport returns, we offer curbside service synchronized with your departure time.

Do you have a loyalty program for repeat customers?

For those who've caught the exotic car bug:

  • Tier 1 (2-4 rentals/year): 10% discount and first dibs on new additions

  • Tier 2 (5-7 rentals/year): 15% discount and reduced security deposits

  • Tier 3 (8+ rentals/year): 20% discount, complimentary upgrades, and exclusive event access

Membership happens automatically based on your rental history. Even yacht charters count toward your status – we reward loyalty in all its luxurious forms.

How can I provide feedback about my rental experience?

We value honest feedback:

  • Post-rental survey: Automatically sent after each rental

  • Google Reviews: Tell the world about your experience

  • Direct contact: Our management team welcomes your thoughts

  • Social media: Tag us in your content

Both compliments and constructive criticism help us improve – share your thoughts however you feel comfortable.
