What is the most affordable exotic car you can rent in Scottsdale?

At Grant Motor Group, the most affordable daily rate on the fleet belongs to the BMW M2 Competition at $399 a day. It is the way into real performance driving in Scottsdale for the smallest bill. The 2025 Corvette Z06 sits just above it at $449 a day. After that the price jumps to the Porsche 911 GT3 at $799 a day and climbs to $1,499 for the Ferrari 458 Italia. So if your goal is the least money that still puts you in a serious car, the M2 is the answer, with the Z06 as the next rung up. These rates can change, so confirm the current number before you book.

What is the most affordable exotic car at Grant Motor Group?

The most affordable car in the fleet is the BMW M2 Competition at $399 a day. Every other car costs more. Here is how the daily rates line up, from lowest to highest.

The word exotic covers a wide range. At the top sit hand-built supercars like the Ferrari and the McLaren. At the more affordable end sit fast, well-made cars that most people can actually drive every day. The M2 and the Z06 live at that lower end. They are the two most affordable rates we offer, and they are the focus of this page.

Two things can lower your bill further. We give a multi-day discount, so a two or three day booking costs less per day than a single day. We also beat prices: find the same car elsewhere for less and we'll beat it. The rates above are volatile, which means they move with the season and the market. Always confirm the current price when you reserve.

Why the BMW M2 Competition earns the low rate

The M2 Competition is affordable to rent because it is the smallest M car, not because it is slow. It uses the S55 engine, a 3.0-liter twin-turbo inline-six that makes 405 horsepower and 406 lb-ft of torque. That is the same core engine BMW put in the larger M3 and M4 of the same era. The first M2 used a weaker single-turbo motor. The Competition swapped it for the S55 and gained about 40 horsepower.

The numbers back up the badge. BMW rates the car at 0 to 60 mph in 4.2 seconds. Top speed is 174 mph. The engine block is closed-deck, a stronger design meant to take high boost. For a car at the affordable end of an exotic price list, that is real hardware.

Our M2 Competition runs a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox with paddles and launch control. It is rear-wheel drive and compact, which is why enthusiasts treat it as the entry point into BMW's M line. If you want the most affordable rate and a car you can drive hard without feeling lost, this is the pick. It also makes a good first performance car for someone stepping up from a normal daily driver.

The next step up: the 2025 Corvette Z06 at $449

For $50 more a day, the 2025 Corvette Z06 brings 670 horsepower. Its 5.5-liter LT6 V8 is, in Motor Authority's words, "the most powerful naturally aspirated V-8 ever unleashed on the market." Naturally aspirated means no turbos, so all of that power comes from engine size and high revs. The redline sits at 8,600 rpm, a figure you normally see on a Ferrari, not a Chevrolet.

The Z06 is quick in a way the price does not suggest. It runs 0 to 60 mph in 2.6 seconds, which is supercar pace. The engine is a flat-plane V8, the first dual-overhead-cam engine in a Corvette since the 1990 ZR-1. Every LT6 is hand-built by a single craftsman at the Performance Build Center inside the Bowling Green plant in Kentucky, and the engine carries a plaque signed by the person who built it. It is closely related to the engine that has powered the C8.R race car since 2019.

Here is the value angle. A new Z06 starts near $106,395, and a loaded one can pass $146,000. That is a fraction of what a Ferrari or McLaren costs to buy, yet the Z06 keeps up with both on a straight road. Renting it at $449 a day lets you feel that for the cost of a nice dinner out, without owning the car or paying its insurance. If you want the most power per dollar in our fleet, the Z06 is the smart middle choice between the M2 and the six-figure exotics.

What the daily rate covers, and what it does not

The daily rate covers the car, but you also plan for a refundable security hold, your own insurance, and fuel. None of these are hidden. Arizona and local rental taxes and surcharges are added to the daily rate and itemized on your quote. They are the normal terms for renting a high-value car, and knowing them up front keeps your final cost clear.

• Security hold. We place a refundable authorization before pickup. A credit card is the best way to carry the hold; a debit hold ties up your own cash. Confirm card options when you book. It reserves funds without charging them and is released after a clean return. The amount varies by car and is confirmed at booking. Across the luxury and exotic rental industry these holds commonly run from about $1,000 to $3,000 or more. Those are common industry figures, not our published numbers, so confirm your car's exact hold when you reserve.
• Insurance. You must carry full-coverage auto insurance in your own name, active before pickup. It cannot be added at the counter. We confirm the exact liability figure your car needs at booking.
• Fuel. Return the car at the fuel level you received it. A refueling fee applies if it comes back lower.
• Mileage. Daily mileage allowances vary by car. Common industry numbers land somewhere near 50 to 100 miles a day, again industry figures rather than our published caps, so ask for your car's exact allowance.

One more rule sets who can book. The minimum age is 25, or 21 with prior approval from us. Every driver needs a valid license, a clean record, and proof of insurance. Out-of-state and international visitors can rent too, with the right documents.

So which affordable exotic should you book?

Book the BMW M2 Competition at $399 a day if you want the most affordable rate, enjoy a quick paddle-shift gearbox, or are stepping into a performance car for the first time. It is fast, forgiving, and easy to place on a road. Book the 2025 Corvette Z06 at $449 a day if you want the most power we offer at the affordable end of the price list. The extra $50 buys 670 horsepower and a 2.6-second sprint to 60 mph. Either way you are getting a genuine performance car for the smallest daily spend on our fleet. These two are where a lot of people start: a birthday drive, a first taste of a real performance car, or a step up from a normal daily driver. Both are easy to place on a road and forgiving to drive, so the day stays about the car rather than managing it. Prices move, so lock in the current rate when you reserve. We deliver anywhere in Scottsdale.
