A few weeks ago, I needed a vehicle large enough to carry 6 persons and luggage. The vehicle provided to me was nice & comfortable. Prices were also reasonable. I am really very happy to rent the car from Aamcar. No hesitation in recommending this company to you.

A few weeks ago, I had a plan for a trip with my family so I booked a car from Aamcar. This was the second time that I used their services. I must say that this was one of the best trips that I had ever experienced. We really enjoyed the trip. I am thankful to Aamcar for providing such a great car within affordable price range. For me, Aamcar is the best New York car rental company.

Consistently Great Service, Fantastically Reasonable Rates.

Anyone who has rented cars in NYC lately has found out that the rates are not what they used to be, even 6 months ago.AAMCAR (West 96th street) is doing a wonderful job holding the line on rate increases. I have been frequenting Aamcar for, probably 12 years. They are wonderful. Since a business is it's people Aamcar is a great Company. They have the same choice of cars (vans, suv's etc) that every car rental co has but their service and their prices are remarkable.

Find them on the internet. You won't regret.

Thanksgiving Miracle!‎

Due to a last minute illness, we had to rent a car to head to Providence from New York. I called at least 30 places in the city and not one car. I already anticipated that being that it was the day before Thanksgiving. Called AAMCAR and at first they said they were sold out. Then the guy put me on hold and came back to say that they had one Minivan left. I braced myself for the price, thinking it was going to be astronomical but wow, they said they wanted to get rid of it and I could pay the same price that I would pay for an intermediate car. I generally don't write reviews but this is a small, local car rental company and I am a true believer of supporting businesses where they still understand the true meaning of customer service! This company is great and were professional from start to finish. This is my new go to place for car rentals!‎

Upper West side's only rental place that you should frequent!

I used to rent at one of the national companies on a weekly basis for business trips to Jersey. On Labor Day weekend, some friends flew in and wanted to go upstate for the weekend. I made a reservation with my regular company 3 weeks in advance.



We showed up on saturday to pick up the SUV and they told us that they were sold out. That's it! There was no apology, no car, no alternative! After speaking to the manager to no avail, my friend found this company AAMCAR nearby. We called and spoke with a live human being immediately. There was no automated anything. Yes, they did have one Minivan left and yes they would hold it for us for 1/2 hour.



We went there immediately. A nice Spanish guy helped us. The office was small but I hardly noticed because we were in and out within 5 minutes.



The best part of the rental was that they are right by the West side highway so we were able to get out of the city quickly! The van was a Sienna, newer model. They threw in a GPS for $8/day. Great weekend, all because of AAMCAR.



I only give my business to them now, go there every Wednesday to rent their mid-size car for $66 including tax. Awesome deal, awesome company.

Nice-Nice-Nice Car rental in NYC

I was in the market fo a rental car for my husband's b'day.So who do you call? Avis, Hertz and all those names.I had no idea how much I would be quoted, it's as if I was trying to rent a house in the Hamptons. All I wanted was a car. Then I found Aamcar on the upper W. side and discovered a reasonable price for a nice selection of cars and a bunch of happy employees.I treated my hubby to a Ford Explorer. A little more expensive than the 4 door chevy but what the heck. I was in it for the treat.

Don't Tell Anyone. This is a Goldmine

These guys are incredible. They give you personal service, they remember you the second time you come, and the rates are probably the lowest in Manhattan.They are truly my "neighborhood store".
