Shelby GT500 Rental in Sarasota: What to Expect

The 2020 Shelby GT500 rents for $499 a day or $249 for four hours. It has a supercharged V8 making 760 hp and a 180 mph top speed. It is the most horsepower per dollar in our fleet, and it is raw and loud in a way our European cars are not.

A different flavor of exotic

The GT500 is American muscle: a Mustang body that looks like trouble and sounds worse. If our Porsche and Audi are refined, this is the opposite. Renters who pick it want the noise and the attention.

Respect the power

760 hp is a lot for a first-time exotic renter. Take the first few minutes slowly, give it room on Tamiami Trail, and be gentle on the throttle in the wet. Our rain tips apply even more here.

Who it is for

Weekend renters who want a car that gets thumbs-up from other drivers, groups planning a loud night out, and anyone choosing between this and the Corvette Z06. The Z06 has more top speed and a precise feel; the GT500 has more attitude.

Call 305-803-0957 to check dates. It is $499 a day, the same price as the Escalade ESV and below most performance cars in the fleet.
