Try the Hertz car rental at the airport.
I know they have BMW's and Mercedes. I rented an Escalade for my wedding last year.
But be aware you need to be 25 or older to rent.

beyond that, hertz is good, brian jessel rents BMW's... why not just roll in with a rich friend's car?
I mean, i know limo is nothing, but if you can get 10+ people in, it's not all that expensive...

they usually require a clas 5 drivers license and you must be 21 years of age. in a lot of cases.

always the same thread, always the same result
X wants to rent a high end car
X realizes that he wont be able to drink/enjoy the night
X comes to the conclusion that he should roll with friends
X goes in the limo

i tried brian jessel a coupe years back
you have to be over 25 to rent it, and if your parents rent it and you get caught driving it you either buy the car ( unlikely ) or they charge your credit card some fee.
just go in a limo. it's more fun.

What's the point riding in some hardcore expensive car, if you wanna drink or get high?
may as well just do it in the limo... last limo we rented, we asked if cigars/cigarettes are allowed, and they said they had a limo for that... and we just boxed the sucker XD

Forget the limo and rent a motor home and get someone older to drive.

Since it was a serious incident the police were called etc., and the insurance became void, putting his friend's brother on the hook.
Relatives chipped in to pay off the debt, which was then transferred to said friend, who was then forced to put college on hold and worked a shitty job for 3 years to pay off the debt.
Since everyone else was nearly done University by the time he paid off the debt, he didn't bother going back to post-secondary education, and today is still doing entry customer service jobs, albeit unionized.

well most people drink after prom
so driving a nice car isnt that bad.
Just pass out wherever you're partying and stay overnight.
But IMO just take a limo or cab

I don't think he's trying to front; I assume he just wants something nice for grad. I know the feeling because I wanted something nice for grad to pick up my prom date in and I was able to rent a brand new ML500 from rent a Benz because I knew the owner.
OP, it's going to be near impossible to rent a car at your age. Like already mentioned you have to be over 25 for all luxury cars and please don't have someone over 25 rent a car for you. Trust me; it's a very bad idea and not worth the risk plsu you're not going to enjoy your grad because you'll be stressed about the rental.

I knew some guys from John Oliver who graded the same year I did in 1999 and they crashed a brand new Durango. The drivers’ dad had to pay the replacement cost which was around $40,000.
