Company: Hertz
Status: President's Circle
Location: JFK
Dates: 09/21-09/24
Reserved: FSAR Camry/Altima
Received: 2013 Buick LaCrosse (premium leather seats, with Sat radio, and only 3 miles on the odometer)
Price: 3 days @ 23.13 per day = 69.39 - $30 coupon and discount for using Amex Plat DCP + tax = $62.81
Coupon used: 135892 ($30 off weekend rental)

Company: National
Status: Emerald/ Executive
Location: JFK
Dates: 09/21-09/23
Reserved: Full Size
Received: Two aisles of choices in the "executive selection" which included a Caddilac CTS. (I realized afterwards, that I could have just reserved a mid-size for the same selection at a slightly lower rate.
Price:   3  DAY      @    $25.54  =  $76.62 less $20 coupon + tax = $82.76
Coupon used: $20 off weekend rental

I made both of the above reservations, but took the car from Hertz because it was cheaper, it allows me to return the car at one of the many Hertz local editions, and it also allows me an extra 4 hours with the Amex Plat. The Cadillac is less of a "grandfather" car than the Buick, but I was very pleased with the Buick and it was brand new, so I was excited to try it out.

Company: Hertz
Status: President's Circle
Location: SJU
Dates: 09/21-09/22
Reserved: Full Size
Received: 2012 Mustang Convertible!
Price: $6.11
Coupon used: Free Day Coupon

The coupon only works up to a premium but somehow it let me book any car i wanted!! so i took the convertible. they started making problems at the return and wanted $117. so a small nice back and forth with them did it and i said basicaly that it said $6.11 on my contract so they have to honor it. and they said fine and manually put it in the comp :) what a drive in sunny Puerto Rico!
