About Silvercar:
Silvercar is a new-age car rental company. Since I first wrote about Silvercar I’ve received lots of rave reviews from readers thanking me for introducing them to Silvercar. Share your experience in the comments!
They will be adding their 19th location in Tampa, FL on 2/26.
I rented from them in Miami on a 2 day trip in the summer, and unlike the weather at the time, the car rental was a real treat. I called them upon landing and they picked me up from the terminal so that I was able to avoid taking the train to them. After the rental they dropped me off in my rental car right back to the terminal.
They now rent the Audi A4 and the Q5 SUV. Unfortunately the Q5 only seats 5 people, I do wish that they offered a larger car for families.
Cars come with built-in GPS, satellite radio, bluetooth, leather seats, and even a free WiFi hotspot. Unlimited miles are included in every rental.
You can even request car seats at no additional charge!
You can rent from Silvercar as long as you are at least 22 years old with no underage fees.
I rented a car from Avis in Miami and got hit with a $17.20 bill for a two 70 cent tolls that I apparently passed on SR112. That’s $1.40 for the tolls and $15.80 for an “eToll Convenience Fee.” Convenient for whom is the question?
Silvercar only passes on the toll itself, no convenience fees!
If you don’t refill the fuel you’ll only be charged a $5 flat rate fee on top of the actual local price of the gas needed to fill up the car. No need to jeopardize missing your flight just to avoid paying $10/gallon for fuel.
Both AMEX and Chase cover the CDW insurance for a Audi A4 or Q5, just select personal coverage when renting and write AMEX, Chase, etc.
You only pay when you pickup the car, nothing is charged beforehand and there are no cancellation fees ever.

No.
Can I rent in Miami and give back in Orlando?
Make a reservation and then call them to edit it.
Can only do one way rentals between Ft Lauderdale and Miami and not Orlando 🙁

I rented from them for 5 days in Los Angeles, and I got the Brand new Q5, they told me I was the first one to rent the car! Got picked up and dropped of from the airport, got WiFi, great convenient service, and an amazing ride. It only cost $277 with Dans referral link. Thanks Dan.
@Dan
I have 2 questions.
1) I know that you did not mention anything about it but I’m looking for a deal from FLL airport arriving on a Saturday night around 11pm and leaving on a Tuesday morning around 9am. Do you know if they have any deals for that?
Thanks
Barry
Just rented from lax for 5 days.they told me they don’t do airport pickups anymore so I took
Shuttle .when it came to return the car the guy drove me to airport after I explained I would miss my flight he was nice but explained he was the only one there so we waited for like 20 minutes til someone else came to take over.the car itself was awesome
Can someone please tell me.. [I am a little new to this 🙂 ]
I am using a chase sapphire preferred card. Do I need ANY other coverage or that would cover ALL damages?
It covers all damage to your rental car.
Is there any easy way to rent when flying into LGA or JFK? Or do you have to find a way to Brooklyn?
Hey Dan quick note and question:
Silvercar in LA doesn’t pick up at airport anymore or drop off. When I went to get the car we did a quick walk through for any damages and I just dropped it off and the guy found something on the bottom fender something I would never see if I was doing a walk through. Basically had to bend down to see it and he said I will file a accident report!!! Are you serious?
I used my delta AMEX card what are my options if I used my personal coverage?
Dan, I just booked a 2 day rental from EWR for 97.73 after $50 off for first time rental, when I try clicking on step 2 to enter your refferal code for the $25 gift card, im not getting anything that says enter refferal code, am I doing something wrong?
I am not a first time renter, so the only code that should work is VINFINITE, but it won’t go through. Any other coders for existing accounts?
Any promo codes that will be valid in February?
