How much does it cost to rent a Ferrari F8 Tributo?

$1,595 a day with a $2,000 deposit. That includes 100 miles a day, and extra miles are $5 each.

Is the Ferrari F8 Tributo hard to drive?

In the normal setting, no. The traction control is well tuned and the gearbox shifts itself. It's rear-wheel drive, so it rewards smooth inputs and punishes greedy ones. Leave it in the normal mode until you know the car.

Is the F8 Tributo faster than the McLaren 720S?

Not quite. Both make 710 horsepower and the 720S is about a tenth quicker to 60. On the street you will never feel the difference. The F8 wins on sound and the badge, the 720S wins on outright pace.

Is the Ferrari F8 a good car for a birthday or anniversary?

It's the car we send out most for occasions. It's what people picture when they hear Ferrari, it sounds the part, and it photographs from every angle.

Does the F8 Tributo have a trunk?

A small one in the front that fits one overnight bag. It's a 2 seat car with no rear storage. Pack light or bring a second car for luggage.

Ferrari F8 Tributo, a 710 horsepower V8 supercar rental in Southern California

The Ferrari F8 Tributo is worth $1,595 a day if what you want is the sound and the badge. It's not the fastest car in our fleet and it's not the easiest to drive. It's the one people remember. We run it in red with a black interior and in red with a tan interior. Deposit is $2,000, mileage is 100 a day, and extra miles are $5.

The sound is the whole point

Most turbo supercars sound fine. The F8 sounds like a Ferrari. It's a 3.9 liter twin-turbo V8 making 710 horsepower, and Ferrari managed to get rid of the muffled whoosh most turbo engines have. Around 4,000 rpm it growls. Past 6,000 it screams. In a tunnel or a parking structure with the windows down it's the best sound in our fleet, and that's not a small thing on a rental. Clients tell us the sound is what they remember, more than the speed and more than the looks.

How it drives

It's rear-wheel drive, which separates it from the Huracan Evo and the Urus. You feel what the back tires are doing. That makes it more engaging on a canyon road and less forgiving if you get greedy with the throttle. Ferrari's traction system lets the car rotate a little before it steps in, so it feels alive without feeling dangerous, as long as you leave it in the normal setting.

The dual-clutch gearbox is one of the best in the business. In automatic you don't feel the shifts. In manual every upshift cracks and every downshift barks. 0 to 60 is 2.9 seconds. On paper the McLaren 720S is a tenth quicker. In real life you will never notice.

F8 vs 720S vs Huracan

The McLaren 720S is the faster car and the more clinical one. It's for people who care how the car performs more than how it sounds. The Lamborghini Huracan Evo is all-wheel drive and easier to drive fast, so it's the safer pick for a first supercar. The F8 sits between them. Not the fastest, not the easiest, but the one with the badge that gets a different kind of respect on the street. A Lamborghini gets phones out. A Ferrari gets a nod.

Who should rent it

Anyone renting for an occasion. Birthdays, anniversaries, proposals. It's the car people picture when they hear the word Ferrari, and it photographs from every angle. Anyone who's already done a Huracan and wants the next thing.

Who should skip it

First-time renters who are nervous. Start with the Huracan Evo or the M3, get the feel, and come back. Anyone with passengers, because it's 2 seats and the front trunk fits one small bag. And anyone whose insurance carrier caps rentals by MSRP, because the F8 is over $300k and that call may not go your way.

If you've been saving a rental for the day that matters, this is the car for that day.
