Michelle Obama, the first African-American First Lady of the United States, is getting as much attention from the media as her husband does, but she is even more popular in the public’s eye. Known as a trendsetter among fashion addicts, Ms. Obama is now offered a one-day rental from the TX exotic car rental company to show off her style.

"As well appointed as the presidential limousine is, I'd guess that, at least for a day, she'd like to ride around in something other than a limo or Air Force One," says Ron Sturgeon, owner of DFW Elite Auto Rental.com. "We have some exotic cars that I'm sure she would enjoy taking out for a spin."

In fact, Sturgeon allowed himself to make a few recommendations for the First Lady, including a bright red 2009 Audi R8, an orange Lamborghini Gallardo, a yellow Ferrari F430 and a Ferrari 360 Spider convertible. A bit too sporty for Ms. Obama if you ask us...

But Sturgeon offers other options as well. "If she wants something a little more elegant and stately, she could go with our Bentley Continental GT, which is always popular and a beautiful blend of form and function," Sturgeon says. "The GT might be just the thing for a night out on the town with the President."

However, Sturgeon says the choice is up to her. "We have a wide selection of exotic cars in our stable, and we'd be happy to provide the First Lady with whichever one she'd like.All Michelle Obama has to do to take advantage of this offer is to give us a call," he says.

    Suits her and her fashion. She really is one of the most popular fashion icons now. And car rentals are also popular right now especially this holiday season. I already book an Avis Israel car rental for my vacation.
