A Focus or Cobalt or the like is pretty much the only thing you’ll be able to find on short notice in Buffalo. Maybe a sixstang like Jay mentioned, otherwise just basic transportation. ---

Just got to [Kayak.com](http://Kayak.com) and search for used cars in Buffalo. Find what you want and call and confirm and see if you can pay for it in advance for a specific car. On a side note, will I lose rep points if I show up to a cruise night in a Corvette with HERTZ stickers all over it? ---

Kinda reminds me of the seinfeld episode where kramer takes the the car for a test drive and runs all the errands like shopping and everything with the sales guy in the car ---

Pay a small fee for the use of the car, and you too can compete against a few of us “seasoned professionals”. Just think, you’ll be able to remove the car from the equation and see how your skills really stack up. ---
