Renting a car can be a great aid in everyday tasks, such as shopping for groceries or hitching on one's old horse and buggy to return it to the horse-and-buggy dealership. Transport in style with today's Groupon: for $499, you get a one-day rental of a Lamborghini Gallardo from Chimera Exotics (a $1,299 value). Drivers must be at least 25 years old, provide proof of insurance, and have a valid U.S. driver's license with a clean record.

Chimera Exotics' fleet of luxury cars beckons drivers to move between destinations with style and speed. In a 24-hour joyride, the Lamborghini Gallardo will coast through streets and highways with the grace of a dolphin ridden by a ballerina. The fully equipped car's e-gear transmission allows drivers to leisurely cruise with automatic transmission or kick it into gear with manual transmission at their discretion. Over the course of the day rental, motorists have a window of 70 miles to explore the city or voguishly check the mailbox several times a day; additional miles clock in at $3 each.
