Hmmm, Hertz wants to rent you a 900 horsepower toy. With their recent history of ripping off customers with forgotten refunds and fake car theft lawsuits, renter beware. 8)

And from the Shelby American LV shop that is putting them together:

Thoughts:
What will they go for at auction in a year or two when Hertz discontinues renting them?
Will the next generation Shelby Hertz rental be a Shelby GT-EV?

Depends on how many crashes are reported on the CarFax.
THey actually are scheduled to be imn the rental fleet for three years. Maybe they go the route of the first generation and then be put on the back lot for a thousand dollars each. Probably not. 8)
Rental Agent: Will you like to get the Insurance too sir
Customer: OOOOOOOH YEAH.
Looks like a three year deal between Hertz and Shelby American.
They will be building the GT500H supercharged and the GTH naturally aspirated
Nobody has mentioned yet that Mark Fields apparently doesn't hold a grudge for being canned.

Two versions of the SHELBY HERTZ
1) hard top only 900 HP will come in black or white rent per day $399 plus after 75 miles daily 99 cents per additional miles
There will be 25 GT-500Hs in the Hertz fleet with 16 of them painted Shadow Black and the other six will be Oxford White which is close to the Wimbledon white hue that covered the first Shelby GT-350s.
Want to rent one? Bring a high-limit credit card and a clean driving record to the Hertz airport location that will have them available. Daily rates will start at $399 including 75 miles or use with additional miles at 99-cents each. The beastly GT-500Hs will be at the outlets in Fort Myers, Miami, Orlando and Tampa in Florida. Or in Las Vegas, Nevada and Phoenix, Arizona. It's an affordable (relatively speaking) way to get seat time in a monster.
2) convertible and hard top 480 HP naturally aspirated version
But they'll also be stocked by Hertz in red, white, gray and black. – all with gold stripes.
The GT-Hs should begin showing up at Hertz this summer. There will be "about 200" each of both the coupes and convertibles. Rentals will start at $99 a day without any mileage restrictions.

Indeed kind Sir, I have my Unobtanium Yellow Credit Card, never leave home without it
Just noticed that the 450 HP HERTZ hood's are much different than the SIXT Shelby hood's
The GT500H hood is completely unique to the others
