Road Trip to San Diego? Here’s What 18+ Renters Need to Know

A road trip from Los Angeles to San Diego is a California classic. Just a couple of hours along the coast, the drive offers beautiful views, exciting stops, and plenty of opportunities to enjoy the open road. And if you’re 18 or older, you don’t have to wait to experience it in style.

At Monza Exotics, we make it possible for young drivers to rent luxury and exotic cars — something most traditional rental companies won’t allow. Here’s what you should know before planning your San Diego getaway.

Can 18-Year-Olds Rent Exotic Cars in LA?

At most major rental agencies, you need to be at least 21 — sometimes 25 — to rent, and age-related surcharges often apply. Exotic and luxury vehicles are even more restricted.

But Monza Exotics is different. Our policy is simple:

  • You must be 18 or older
  • You must have a valid U.S. driver’s license
  • You must have your own full-coverage insurance that applies to rentals

That’s it. No complicated loopholes, no confusing restrictions. If you meet those requirements, you can rent and drive some of the world’s most sought-after cars.

Perfect Exotic Cars for the LA-to-San Diego Drive

The drive down the I-5 or the scenic Pacific Coast Highway is the perfect chance to enjoy a luxury car. Some great options from our fleet include:

  • Lamborghini Urus – Exotic performance meets SUV comfort.
  • Cadillac Escalade – Ideal for groups, with style and space.
  • Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG (G-Wagon) – Iconic, powerful, and road-trip ready.
  • BMW 7 Series – A smooth, luxury sedan perfect for long drives.
  • Range Rover Autobiography – Spacious and refined for a coastal journey.
