Ferrari rental, how very Miami

Can anyone remember which episode Sonny Crockett said that in? They were staking out a hotel and the guy they were staking out had a rented Ferrari.

It was the music crooks in “Rock and a Hard Place”. They were talking about Crockett when he got into a black Ferrari 308.

Yes, it was  "Rock and a Hard Place"  Fremont & Wiggins saw Sonny rent a Ferrari and the quote was:

"Rent a Ferrari, how very L.A."

Ah, dammit, you are of course quite right! That's not going to work then. I'm making a video of Vice locations in 2020 (filmed it last month) and rented a white Ferrari whilst I was there (as you do!). I was really hoping to have Crockett saying 'Ferrari rental, how very Miami' over it, which is how I erroneously remembered it. 

You can see a bit of the footage (the Ferrari in Miami) in this video.

Out of curiosity, how much does it cost to rent a car like that for a day?  Do they require a huge deposit?  If I were to guess, I'd think it is at least $1000 a day.

The "How very L.A." Ferrari was a black 328 GTS with beige (magnolia) interior rented under the Burnett cover.

Oops. Thanks! :thumbsup:

Very interesting.  I would have thought the security deposit would be a lot higher.  I do like that they track usage with GPS to see how the car is being treated.

I guess I will stick to my Honda S2000.  lol  I hadn't heard of Turo until today.  Cool idea for people willing to rent their car out.
