Porsche 911 Convertible Rental

The sleek Porsche 911 Carrera Cabrio is known for its stylish exterior, smooth drive, and extraordinary power.

Exterior
With the Porsche 911 you will most certainly have the "wow-factor" on Miami's roads. Its iconic Porsche body styling not only looks the part, but it's also extremely strong. Made with an aluminum body and ultra-strength steel, the car is extremely rigid, light-weight, safe, and ready for anything.

Practicality
Not only does the Porsche 911 look the part, but it's also a surprisingly practical car. The vehicle has extra space in the cabin for the driver and three other passengers, and is one of the biggest Porsche models on the market, yet you wouldn't know it from the outside.

Technology
Some of the Porsche 911's most impressive features lie in its technological developments. The vehicle has one of the most impressive convertible tops on the market. Known as the panel bow roof, the fabric on the top of the car acts like a metal top but isn't. This means it takes no time at all to switch from driving with the top down to driving with the top up - just in case it rains!

Efficiency
Despite being one of the fastest sports cars on the market, the Porsche 911 is able to achieve moderate fuel consumption. The car has built-in fuel-efficient technologies which include auto start/stop, thermal management, electrical system recuperation, direct fuel injection, coasting modes, and catalytic converters that provide efficient emission control.

Safety
The Porsche 911 comes with anti-lock brakes, stability control, a security system, and front, side, and overhead airbags. Not only can you be sure that you will be safe, but you can also be sure that the vehicle will be safe when you park it.

Porsche Boxster Convertible Rental

The stunning Porsche Boxster rental is for the classic convertible lover. The luxurious vehicle has a breathtaking look and feel both inside and out, and is sure to turn heads in Miami.

Exterior
Since its creation, the Porsche Boxster has been the definition of a cool sports car. Its soft-top roof and curvy body appeals to most dedicated drivers out there. It is strong and powerful on the outside, with ability and quality to match.

Practicality
The Porsche Boxster can only seat two people, but that doesn't mean the car is lacking in space. The interior feels plenty spacious with lots of leg room for both passenger and driver. The car also has a trunk in the front-bonnet (as the engine is in the middle of the car) for some small luggage, and another one in the rear of the car.

Technology
The interior of the Porsche Boxster includes some of the latest in high-tech control systems, using a touchscreen and clear dials. It also has smartphone connectivity using Apple Carplay. With regards to the Boxster's driving capabilities, its PSM Sport mode allows for ambitious drivers to explore the limits of the vehicle's power and torque, a function that gives the driver full control of the cars traction control, ride-height, and gear-ratio.

Efficiency
The Porsche Boxster performs exceptionally well on the road, reaching incredible speeds of up to 168mph, but that doesn't mean Porsche hasn't managed its fuel economy too. Somehow, the Porsche Boxster is also extremely economical, it uses direct fuel injection and VarioCam Plus to switch between everyday driving and maximum performance. The positioning of the engine also contributes to its efficiency, offering a smooth ride and optimum power output.

Safety
The Porsche Boxster also comes with anti-lock brakes, stability control, a security system, and front, side, and overhead airbags. Despite its small size, the Porsche Boxster really makes up for it in safety securities.
