BMW Rental in HI?

[Zahnarzt]

My fiancée and I will be off to our honeymoon after our wedding in September, and I managed to convince her that we should take the fabled Road to Hana (http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&saddr=3900+Wailea+Alanui+Dr,+Kihei,+HI+96753+(Four +Seasons-Maui)&daddr=Hana,+HI&hl=en&geocode=4682781881061380384,20.680154,-156.442673&mra=ls&sll=20.75804,-156.230392&sspn=0.378822,0.482025&ie=UTF8&ll=20.765103,-156.213226&spn=0.378804,0.482025&z=11) one early morning to take in some scenery and, of course, the driving experience! We already have some little rental convertible reserved, but what I'd really like to do is get an M3 or 335i convertible. I've looked around the internet a bit, and there certainly seem to be options available, but they all seem rather fly-by-night. I figured it might be worth checking to see if any forum members have had any luck with renting BMWs in Hawaii. Any recommendations for or against? We'd be looking to rent for a single day.

Fingers crossed,

I know there are places here (Oahu) that rent exotics, not sure about Maui. If you want to enjoy the road to Hana and stop for the scenery it frankly does not matter all that much what you are driving. But if you find something have fun.

If one of you gets car sick take a pill before you do the drive.:eek:

i just got back from Maui a couple weeks ago... the road to Hana is nice..... its not as bad as a drive compared to the kahekili hwy (30 / 340 hwy) a lot of one way only roads... looked like jurassic park :) and if you guys are gonna watch the sunrise at halaakala wear something really really really warm cus its soo damn cold up there lol

have fun and congrats

Aloha Rick,

I just discovered this board so this post may be late. Congratulations on your wedding! The Road to Hana is wonderful ... take your time and enjoy the scenery :). I hope you have/had a great experience ... please don't equate small, mom and pop casual with fly-by-night ... it's different here ... I hope your stay allows you to experience that :)

Mahalo, Kaili
