More BMWs Please

greenspun.com : LUSENET : zipcar : One Thread

Hey could you guys put more BMW and premium vehicles on your networks for DC? (ESPecially near capital hill) I don't mind paying for it, but these are high quality cars, and with me and people like myself who really appreciate a quality set of wheels, will insure a lot of business for you.

On the other hand, you do have some people who haven't the slightest ideah how to drive a rental without causing damage to the vehicle. (ie, my first BMW Rental had both turn signals broken and the one on the right was not securely fastened, the next time I rented it, the left turn signal still has(had) problems, the VW Beatle I rented had inoperable mirror adjustments, the trunk cover wires are missing, and had personal items in it, the Honda Civic I rented was dirty, and had a repugnant odor of baby powder inside the car, it was so bad, I acquired a headache each time I entered the car--count on me avoiding further rentals of that particular vehicle, and the Toyota Matrix was fine, but the stereo could have sounded better, not to mention that all your volkswagens have only tape players. It would be nice to use a CD with a Volkswagen smetime soon).

But when you have people who appreciate the services you offer (ie. the mini cooper I rented, was in top condition, everything worked, the transmission could have been more responsive but I presume that's Mini's fault. So please, at the soonest time possible, add some more BMWs maybe a Volvo, and see if you can add the Scion tC and the new Smart Car (from Mercedez and swatch which comes out next year) to your Vehicle rental network.

Thanks!
