DALLAS, Nov. 10, 2006 -- Imagine a day where you drive five of the world's hottest, most desirable luxury and sports cars. Can you see yourself behind the wheel of a Ferrari F430 on the open road? Taking on the curves in an Aston Martin V8 Vantage? Feeling the power of the 2007 Porsche Twin Turbo? Unwind a Lamborghini Gallardo Coupe? Take off in a Corvette Z06? Dream no more -- these five cars make up the 2,000 Horses Tour, and you can drive all five of them for $989, less than a thousand dollars per day. Weekly guided tours begin in December, expanding to Houston, San Antonio and Austin in January 2007.

DFW Elite Auto Rental is expanding its luxury car rental offerings with the introduction of the new 'Drive Your Dream' program. This unique program gives drivers the opportunity to participate in several different pre-planned automotive tour packages, driving multiple exotic and luxury cars during the course of a single day. The day starts with a briefing by your tour guide, and a complete overview of each vehicle. Then your expert guide will take you through one of our carefully selected tour routes as you drive each car in turn. The highlight comes as you unleash the raw horsepower of each automobile, negotiating deserted back roads.

"There are a lot of people out there who love high performance automobiles and want to drive something different, but don't necessarily want the expense associated with ownership," explained DFW Elite Auto Rental founder Ron Sturgeon. "This is a way for people to be able to get behind the wheels of several different luxury and sports cars during a single day and enjoy them on the open road."

The Drive Your Dream program offers four different packages to fit every budget and satisfy every automotive desire. For example, the entry level 'Every Mile A Memory' Tour, priced at just $489, gives drivers access to five great cars -- the Porsche Boxster Convertible, the 1965 Corvette, the Mercedes SLK 55, the Lotus Elise and the Mercedes SL 500. "What a great gift!" said Sturgeon. "These packages are less expensive than a day's rental for any one or more of the cars included."

Other packages include the Couples Tour ($789 per day which is the best value, since it is one price for both partners), which comprises high-end sedans such as the Rolls Royce and the Mercedes S 550; and the Redline Tour ($689 per day), which puts you behind the wheel of some of the world's hottest cars, including the Porsche 911 Carrera convertible, Viper SRT-10, Mercedes SLK 55, Corvette Z-06, and the Mercedes SL 500.

"What we've done is looked at the different reasons people buy certain cars, and created packages to give them access to similar cars," Sturgeon said. "There are a lot of different motivations for driving certain cars, so we've used our expertise and unique inventory to create something tailored for the different types of auto enthusiasts."

In addition, DFW Elite Auto Rental offers a wide range of luxury and sports cars rentals to individuals, and customized group and corporate tours to teams of eight or more drivers.

DFW Elite Auto Rental.com is headquartered at 5940 Eden in Fort Worth, serving the Dallas - Fort Worth metroplex, as well as Houston, San Antonio, and Austin. For more information and to see a complete inventory of available vehicles, go to http://www.dfweliteautorental.com/ or call 817-838-RENT.
