San Francisco is the perfect city to catch all the sites, landmarks, colorful neighborhoods, and beautiful coastline in the driver's seat of a convertible car. San Francisco convertible car rentals can be found around the city center and airport, making it easy to pick up and drop off before and after your “wind in the hair” vacation.
San Francisco International Airport is about 13 miles from the city center. This can be a great introduction to the city if you rent a convertible from one of the car rental companies at the airport. To get to the car rental center, you can board the AirTrain Blue Line, a free shuttle service offered twenty-four hours a day. Once you have arrived at the SFO rental car center you will have the choice of 9 rental companies, including Avis, Enterprise, Alamo, and National, to name a few.
Of course, you want to have a few options for convertibles, and some of the San Francisco convertible car rentals include those from Ford, BMW, and Chevrolet. Chevrolet and Ford's convertibles have the option of standard or automatic transmission, whereas the BMW convertible is generally a standard transmission.
Driving in San Francisco can be an adventure, but there are some things you should be aware of to make sure you have a great time in your convertible. First, street signs are your friend. They will let you know if a street is one-way or if there are bus lanes. Next, those famous hills can be tricky, so a rule of thumb when driving is to point your tires toward the curb when parking downhill and away from the curb when parking uphill. Keep in mind that a little boost of gas is necessary to climb up the hills and that you should always look out for bicyclists.
Book your convertible car rental in San Francisco at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
January is typically the cheapest month to rent a convertible car in San Francisco, with prices around ₪64 per day. The most expensive month is July, with average prices of ₪103 per day.

Where are the best car rental locations in San Francisco to rent convertibles?
Besides reserving San Francisco convertible car rentals at the airport, there are a couple more choices for convertibles inside the city. There is a Sixt rent-a-car location in the Tenderloin District on O'Farrell Street. In the Mission District, you have another Sixt location on Van Ness Ave and, lastly, another location near the famous Fisherman’s Wharf on Columbus Ave.
What is the most reliable convertible to rent in San Francisco?
San Francisco convertible car rentals may have many options in brands and types, but when cruising through the streets of San Fran, it’s best to go with what you’re comfortable with. Mainly, if you have never driven a standard transmission vehicle, or if it's been a long time, you might want to stick with an automatic convertible. Especially when cruising up and down the hills, you’ll want to feel confident in your driving skills. Some popular brands of convertibles to drive around San Francisco are Ford and Camaro and both are available in automatic and manual transmissions.
Where are the best places to park convertibles in San Francisco?
San Francisco is notorious for difficult parking. Meters can be hard to come by, and parking on the street can be tricky as there are different times in the day when you can park and other times you can’t, as well as tow-away zones, so always look out for signs. A pretty good option for parking your convertible safely is finding a parking garage, although they aren’t always the cheapest option. If you are a lucky driver and find a spot on the street, even if it's blocks away from your destination, celebrate your luck but make sure to take all your valuables with you and remember where you parked.

Agent was great at desk. When we got to car pick up we were offered an Audi SUV. Even though it was only a year old it was quite used. Also very uncomfortable seats to drive in. We drove a lot and not suitable for it. Also no charger for phones unless you had an older one. Radio not that wonderful either. Had rented and paid for a luxury vehicle that one had it in name only. Not pleased.

I was not given a damage slip or told to look at the damage ahead of time on my rental car. I was told (through an email) that a scratch was there that had not been there before my rental. I drove the car the entire time with the exception of valets at my hotel and did not cause damage. Because I did not get to inspect it and was not given a form to do so, I do not have evidence that something happened under my watch and just have to take their word. I also would have liked them to tell me when I turned the car in, as I did not have a chance to see what they are saying I did. It all feels pretty unfair. This could have been resolved if they had given me a damage form ahead of time.

Even though we had a car reserved and used the online check-in, we had to wait for almost an hour in line (and then check in again). They did not have the car we reserved available (even though we reserved it not long in advance). The bathrooms were disgusting.

My poor experience about pricing transparency. The cost of the rental car was 30% more than the kayak quote, and the initial estimate from thrifty. I was charged the additional 30% after returning the car, and had zero add ons. The receipt / charges are extremely unclear what the additional cost was. I attempted to reach out to their customer service and the process is to send a vague complaint form . I feel like I was scammed- but have no recourse- I definitely will not be using thrifty ever again. Also in the car pick up, the process took more than an hour and the first car had a check engine light on, that I needed to change cars

Terrible. Just pay the extra $20-40 and go with Alamo. They were not ready with our car, they were not giving updates, we waited an hour. Finally we went to the Alamo counter and asked how quickly we could get a car... it was immediately. I tried to cancel my thrifty reservation that was free to cancel and the chat support was giving me attitude and not allowing me to cancel. After some back and forth I called and canceled with ease. THEN, the car was "ready"... Never again!

In advance of our trip I made a reservation for a van for my family of 6. When we arrived they did not have one available. They gave us a Traverse which is a SUV with a third row. There was room for my family to sit in it but there was no room for our luggage. I expected at making a reservation for a specific vehicle that it would be there. Isn't that the whole point of a reservation? I also felt very pressured to buy a bunch of their rental options even after saying no.
