When we typically think about car rentals, an exotic driving experience rarely comes to mind. Other than the fact there is sometimes a unique exploratory moments when driving a vehicle you don't own, the standard standard of relatively-new economy cars and vans fall flat of providing meaningful memories behind the wheel.

In major cities in the United States, car rental conglomerate Enterprise Rent-A-Car provides customers with a feistier option for spending a day or two with a vehicle. The Exotic Car Collection groups a premium selection of cars and crossover vehicles that would otherwise not be so easily accessible. Depending on the location, Cadillacs, BMWs and even Lamborghinis can be rented through Enterprise's Exotic Car Collection. Part of a recent expansion of their operations, the rental car service has opened its first Canadian Exotic Car Collection venture.

Serving the city of Toronto, the Exotic Car Collection program is established in the Enterprise Rent-A-Car location near the Pearson International Airport. "Customers rent from the Exotic Car Collection for a wide variety of occasions – from people who want to add a special touch to a big event, to travellers who want to enjoy their vacation in style, to business executives entertaining clients," says the senior vice president of Enterprise Brice Adamson. Delivering 'white-glove treatment' to customers with features such as a streamlined reservation process, the Canadian website for the Exotic Car Collection presently shows six vehicles. The Audi Q5, BMW 528i, BMW X5, Infiniti QX80, Land Rover Range Rover and the Porsche Panamera is currently attached to the Canadian location. Rates for vehicle rental is positioned at $175 to $200 per day.  

The expansion (including the Toronto location) for the Enterprise Rent-A-Car Exotic Car Collection is added to almost 30 branches in operations. 2016 represents the 10th anniversary of the Exotic Car Collection rental service.

A Canadian Star Car: Red Green's Possum Van

Clip of Possum Van during a Red Green Show season 1 scene transition.  It could be argued that the car someone regularly drives can be reflective of their personality. The level of character traits found in our automobiles can range from subtle to flamboyant as practicality, style, power, brand loyalty and other details are factors influencing our vehicle affection. On the big screen and silver screen, an automobile (frequently popularized as a Star Car) can be used to affirmatively to expand on a human character. Batman’s Batmobile, the Dodge Charger called the ‘General Lee’ in Dukes of Hazzard, the Volvo P1800 featured in the 1960s television version of The Saint, the Aston Martin DB5 driven by James Bond in some of the most famous spy movies are some popular examples where vehicles play a major role in reinforcing the appearance of fictional individuals. Due to the budgetary constraints of Canadian media productions, the presence of native Star Cars is rare. However, one success...

Honda’s Secret 30th Anniversary In Indy Car Racing

Photo Credit: Engine Developments Ltd. Too many times, forgetting an anniversary would end with someone spending time in the proverbial doghouse. This has apparently happened this year as the 2016 Verizon IndyCar Series season concluded with no major celebrations or recognition for what is 30 years since a major current partner of American open wheel racing began participation in the sport. The following article is a collection of the details I’ve learned as well as some insight from engine builder John Judd on what was a quiet 30th anniversary in the Verizon IndyCar Series. During the week where the 30th running of the Canadian street race now known as the Honda Indy Toronto, I was compelled to capture the flavour of the inaugural event. The viewing experience provided me some insight into a period of time where I was too young to absorb auto racing in the manner I do today. A race that featured television coverage with no regular onscreen statistics, the league used a local ...
