what's going on everybody. rob ferretti here in las vegas nevada. see there's las vegas behind me i've got a 458 rental car that i justscored from a company that's not mine i just doing a little bit of marketresearch here because in vegas they seem to make offers that are too good to betrue and i've been in the business for 15 years when something's too good to betrue there's usually a reason now this far behind me was six hundreddollars for a day with 175 miles and no security deposit thatdoesn't make good business sense, because it's not even profitable. let'ssee if we can figure out what the business model is. so the car from 20 feet looks good, it's on point. a bunch of little like
nicks and scratches but that couldhappen on any car that's i cant pretend like that that would be an issue to meif i rented this car. this doesn't line up clearly the guy andi think one of my bigger problems was the guy was feeding me lines of bs hetold me that that was normal over there and when it came to this side i said "so why is this line not like that" his answer was simply "that the car flexesthat's perfectly normal" he made up a story about the horsesbeing stolen all the time i've had six or eight 458 never had a horse stolentold me made a hundred of them and they were all stolen so still again don'tbelieve him but this one hasn't been
stolen he said because it's been weldedon. some of the stuff that concerned me he sells insurance for a hundred fiftydollars to people from new york who don't have insurance or to people from europei asked them why i couldn't purchase the insurance for the parts have an extralayer he told me "you're not allowed to double insure a car". i inquired why youcan't double insure a car because when i travel hertz tries to sell me insurancewhen i already have insurance, it's just what they do. i don't know what the issue wasthere then i asked if i could use amex premium car rental protection and theysaid no they don't accept it because amex takes a year to pay. so when istarted digging into it a little bit on
the insurance end i started talkingabout (to off camera) good thanks. when i started digging into it onthe insurance end i started asking well what about this what about this and hestarts telling me well if you damaged wheel which the most common damageusually you have to buy a whole set because they don't sell just one wheel and now istart getting into the talking to the guy who knows what he's talking aboutbut i'm pretending like i don't know, and i'm like - look guy you said a bunch of stuff idisagree with but understand you don't have to buy a full set of wheels if onewheel is damaged or has to be replaced you can still get one
"no you can't" so then we start playingthe internet game one like we'll go look up this website but look at this websitei'm not even talking about used wheels on ebay i'm talking about going you canwalk into a ferrari dealership buy a wheel 2,500 bucks from the manufacturer butyou can at least buy one. so i see the setup there that if they are pinning youfor damage or something like that that they may i take you to the cleaners ifyou know what i mean because you don't know what you're doing. now let's showyou the interior this is really where you're going to see the most noticeable, i mean from outside the car looks fine inside
i mean the seat is completely indisrepair it's like falling apart let's see we need to focus on that i mean so you have that and that that'sa replaceable thing i mean honestly we've at gotham run cars up to the500,000, 500,000! sorry the odometer was broke and it was 500,000. we've run them upto about a 100,000 early on when we started the company but we'vealways replace seats reupholstered them because nobody wants to get into havesomething like that this car and this sort of explains what you're looking atthis explains why it's so cheap because (warning beeps repeat) ...because...
(still beeping) ...ok, you stop... (still beeping) let's see, let's get rid of those error messages (beeping stops) because the car has 73,000 miles on it so clearly theyjust run them down until they're no longer runnable and then they get rid ofthem so that's that answers that i mean the standard like the buttons are allbroken the quality inside is a little bit worse than it should be but you're you're paying half of whatanyone else charges so that's what you get it's got an exhaust tick in the back thedifferential is no good when you take it any sort of driveway an angle issomething like that the rear diff make
some really weird noise, it drivesstraight it's a decent value if you don't really care about what you'regetting but as far as anything else i mean i'drather spend the extra couple bucks get a newer car that's gonna drive betterand there's the exhaust tick let's see, if we shut the window and hear that (engine revving a noticeable ticking coming from the exhaust) so you've got that these are the majorthings i've noticed you got that exhaust tick when you step on the gas i'll seeif i can just drive here for a second when you let your foot off the gas
you got this weird like sighing soundand the transmission is not that great either or the clutch whatever it doesn't i've been told varying stories one ofthem being that this car doesn't have a clutch and it's a little sloppy when isay a little sloppy it's not very smooth between gears but it'll give you theidea of what it's like to drive one of these things it's never gonna driving an80,000 mile ferrari that that's been in a rental fleet and probably notmaintained the t will never drive like a newer one with a couple thousandmiles on it. so if all you care about is curb appeal and not having the newestnicest ferrari that's not a terrible
investment or not terrible use of moneyif you're more concerned about what the post rental experience will be likethat's where i'd probably be concerned to have a guy feeding the lines andlines of bs about stuff that i know is actually untrue that doesn't speak wellfor the guy running the company and when you were the guy at least working at thecompany and obviously i'm not going to give you the company name because i wantto plug in it's not something i feel is worthy on the good end or the bad end, but at the end of the day something to be aware of you get what you pay forand when you do business with somebody especially on a smaller level with nosecurity deposit and they didn't bother
running my insurance or anything likethat you're really running the risk of relying that you're going to do a decenttransaction with a decent person i didn't really get that vibe so that's myexperience what you get for 700 bucks in vegas i got a ferrari for the day whichnot whatever if you want got some dream cars doing driving experience vegasnever get myself a plug we're gonna allow you to the drive ferraris,lamborghinis, mclarens and we've got much newer nicer cars is not gonna be atthis cheap cutthroat rate but that we've got nowhere nicer cars and you getguaranteed plus we have a fleet look out four hundred cars in california soanything you can think of that you want
we could probably get it over from thela office. if you're looking to pay for it thank you guys for watching i hope youenjoyed this experience a little walkthrough on a 73,000 miles ferarrirental car in vegas i will catch you next time
