Rent a Ferrari in France

Ferrari is the name that defines the exotic car rental industry. Founded by Enzo Ferrari in 1939 in Maranello, Italy, the prancing horse badge carries more emotional weight than any other marque on a rental lot. It's also one of the most widely available — we list over 80 companies across the United States offering at least one Ferrari model.

What It's Like to Drive a Rental Ferrari

Ferraris are louder, sharper, and more theatrical than you expect. The naturally aspirated V8 in the 488 GTB screams past 7,000 RPM in a way that makes pedestrians stop walking. The twin-turbo F8 Tributo is faster on paper but slightly less raw — still, 710 horsepower through the rear wheels gets your attention immediately.

The Roma is the one to pick if you want the badge without the drama. It's a front-engine grand tourer, quieter at cruise, comfortable enough for a full day behind the wheel. The Portofino drops the top and adds a back seat — technically — making it the most practical Ferrari you can rent.

At the other end of the spectrum, the 812 Superfast is a 789-horsepower V12 front-engine monster. It's genuinely fast in a way that requires respect. Not a first-time exotic rental. The SF90 Stradale, Ferrari's plug-in hybrid flagship, pushes nearly 1,000 combined horsepower and is the fastest road car the company has ever built.

Rental Costs and Deposits

Ferrari rental pricing varies significantly by model and city. A 488 Spider or F8 Tributo typically runs $1,500–$2,500 per day in major US markets like Miami, Las Vegas, and Los Angeles. The Roma and Portofino tend to sit slightly lower at $1,200–$2,000. Flagship models like the 812 Superfast and SF90 Stradale command $2,500–$4,000+ daily.

Expect security deposits of $5,000–$10,000 held on your credit card. Most companies require drivers to be 25 or older, and some impose mileage caps of 100–150 miles per day with overage fees of $3–$5 per mile. Weekend and holiday surcharges are common — particularly in destination cities.

Which Ferrari Should You Rent?

• 488 Spider — The sweet spot. Drop-top V8, wide availability, prices that haven't caught up to the newer models. Best all-around Ferrari rental.
• F8 Tributo — Faster and more refined than the 488. Pick this if you want the latest mid-engine experience.
• Roma — Elegant, understated, comfortable. Great for date nights and long drives. Doesn't scream "look at me" the way mid-engine Ferraris do.
• 296 GTB — Ferrari's hybrid V6 mid-engine coupe. Quick, light, and a preview of where the brand is heading.
