There is an independently owned Budget agency called 'Budget Rent-A-Car of Beverly Hills' that has a location right at LAX (presuming that is the airport you were referring to --- we have a few of them in the LA metro area) that rents BMWs as well as more exotic specialty cars. I don't know what specific BMW models they currently have, nor do I have a clue on their pricing, but it's worth a free call to 1-800-743-3442 (local number 310-821-8200). For reference, the Beverly Hills location number is 1-800-227-7117.

There is also an ad in the yellow pages local to LAX for a place called 'Exotic Car Rental' that lists BMW amongst their offerings. I know even less about them; their number is 1-800-385-8888.

But your best bet may be with a smaller independent agency located at LAX called Sunbelt Car Rental. I just called for kicks and they have a selection of the following models: 328i, 328ic, Z3 1.9 and Z3 2.8. When I called, the guy answered on a cellular phone from the shuttle van, so my guess is you won't be paying for a lot of overhead here. No 800 number either. Give 'em a try _at_ (310) 410-2025.

Good luck, and let me/us know how you make out.
