Try Budget at LAX or in Beverly Hills. They rent exotics there. There is another firm as well but I can't remember their name, if I think of it I'll let you know. I found them on the web and there was a coupon for a discount.

Oops, I guess I should read the entire post. Budget may still have them in San Jose.

The name of the agency I used in Seattle was Resort Rent A Car and they do not appear to have a location in San Jose.
