I paid $0.00 as the car wasn't for me.

@ moish, the reason you think is isn't correct. I'm the one aware of the story. technically it did work.

I checked via bb on avis.com (mobile avis site sometimes gives different prices than regular avis site), and its $3494.62 for 30 days.

@ the fans: blushing

When renting via avis.com, there is a little checkbox (on the first page of 'reservations') with an option stating your location.

That's where you should change the default USA to something else.

Not sure if it works for the USA rentals, but keep us posted.
i'll try im renting next week

Wont they see your US license when you pick up your car?  Or that has nothing to do?

I came avis Presidental 2 years ago, and since then its awesome!! I usually get from the nicest cars on the lot.

I was in Israel, and there there is no Avis First  - It jumps from reg preferred to Presidental ... You gotta basically earn it, which is 10 rentals within a year. I then called them and hocked a lil and got it!!
In Israel they dont really respect the status of presidential too much, but my wizard # works in america and my status is Presidental

Shtick would be to know what button pulls up all the possible codes they can enter to discount and/or over-ride the current rate/upgrade the vehicle..
