Default Corvette rental Tampa intl. Airport or Ft Myers?

Wondering if anyone knows if rental companies at either airport rent C7s. I am going to be down there for a week at my parents condo in October and want a C7! I made a few calls but none of the people even showed theme on the computer. I know friends have flown into Sanford and got them. Unsure about Tampa or Ft Myers though.

Thanks in advance

Don't remember name of rental but at Tampa they have C7's. At least they did the last time I was there which was over a year ago.We tried to rent one but you have to reserve in advance. May have been Hertz.

Hertz in Fort Myers has them down here. Just have to make the reservation for it so the car can be placed at your terminal.

My friends have got them through Alamo in Sanford and Orlando. Maybe my odds will be good with Tampa.

I'll look into avis

Checked with Avis at the airport and they do have them available but they have a 1100 mile limit and $.75/mile after that. My trip to Key West and back and to Ft Myers and back will probably use all that up, if not more. It's looking like I might have to see if I get lucky with Alamo and see if they have any on the lot when I get there.

Hertz world headquarters are in ft myers and they rent ferraris, lambos, maseratis, etc from there last I heard. I am sure you can get a c7 if you check

Hertz (on the lot) no longer has Corvettes. Enterprise/National is carrying them but not a lot of them. Avis hasn't had them but have the Camaro SS in large quantity
