Volkswagen ID. Buzz 2025

Ameet was an incredible host from start to finish. We took his ID. Buzz to Palm Springs and it ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. Out of all the vehicles we’ve rented over the years, this one got the most attention by far. Everywhere we went people were stopping to look at it, asking questions, waving, giving thumbs up, and taking pictures. It was a really unique experience and definitely turned heads everywhere we drove. The ID. Buzz is unlike anything else on the road. If you’re looking to rent something different and make your trip more memorable, I highly recommend Ameet’s vehicle. It has so much personality and attracts attention in the best way possible. Ameet was friendly, professional, and made the entire rental process smooth and easy. The vehicle was clean, exactly as described, and a blast to drive. Thanks again, Ameet, for such a great experience. We would absolutely rent from him again!

One of the BEST experiences I have ever had with renting a car. The amount of compliments and looks I got from everyone was one of the highlights of the trip. This is truly a special G63 and one you will never forget or see again. Definitely a rare 1 of 1 type of car that is worth renting. You will not be disappointed.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I couldn’t be happier with my experience renting this Tesla Model Y! The vehicle was spotless, perfectly maintained, and performed flawlessly throughout our entire trip. The Full Self-Driving technology was absolutely incredible. We drove along the California coast, through busy congested city traffic, active construction zones, and crowded tourist areas, and the system handled everything with impressive confidence and smoothness. It made long drives far more relaxing and enjoyable than I ever expected. The car itself was comfortable, efficient, and a pleasure to drive. Everything worked exactly as it should, and the vehicle was delivered in excellent condition. On top of that, the host provided outstanding customer service from start to finish. Communication was prompt, professional, and helpful throughout the rental process. If you’re considering renting a Tesla Model Y with Full Self-Driving, don’t hesitate. This was one of the best rental experiences I’ve ever had, and I would gladly rent from this host again. Highly recommended!

Overall, I had a good experience and would consider renting from this host again. The car drove great, was smooth, reliable, and the interior was very clean. The only downsides were the late-night pickup and the lockbox, which was a bit of a hassle to access. It was also difficult to take the required photos in the dark, and the exterior of the car was a little dirty when I picked it up. Other than those minor issues, the rental went smoothly, and I’d be happy to rent this vehicle again.
