Note: In general categories, car rental companies can rarely guarantee a make or model. That’s why you’ll usually see a make/model example with a notation of …or similar. That means you will get either that vehicle or something of similar size and with similar features.
While luxury cars normally are not subject to no show policies, it can be common for rentals with this size car to have limited mileage. If you're renting a luxury car and find that your rate quote does not include unlimited mileage, I would recommend calling that particular car rental company's toll free line and speaking to a reservation representative. They may be able to offer a rate that includes more mileage or even an unlimited mileage option.
