Drive a sports car on the Autobahn (Germany).

The autobahns are a series of highways in Germany. They're pretty standard as far as highways go: long, flat, tolls, go fast! The difference is that there's no real speed limit in certain sections, and no limits on overtaking. You can read about them here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_autobahns. Interestingly, the rate of fatalities per vehicle on the autobahns is actually less than HALF of the equivalent rate in the United States. I guess we suck at driving. Time to put that to the test!

A flight to Munich for next week costs about a grand: http://www.kayak.com/#/flights/RNO-MUC/2012-05-01/2012-05-08. Okay, no sweat.

What about driving a car in Europe? Do I need to get a driver's license, or is my U.S. license good? I need to get an International Driver's Permit. They're available at AAA and cost $25.00, they last 6 months. Works for me! http://www.fodors.com/community/europe/can-one-drive-in-europe-with-us-license.cfm.

The sports car rental is apparently pretty easy to come by as well! This website has a long list of luxury cars for rent: http://www.drivetravel.com/statesupplier.aspx?pagename=elite_luxury_car_hire_germany_&supplier_id=75&country_id=83. I personally would choose the bright red 700-horsepower Lamborghini Aventador: http://www.aventador.com/. Its 6.5L V12 goes from 0 to 60 in 2.9 seconds, and can achieve a maximum speed of 217 miles per hour.  It costs 3800 Euros per day, which is $4985.98 at a SPOT exchange rate of 1.3121 Dollars per Euro.

Total Costs:

• Flight to Munich - $1015
• International Driver's Permit - $25
• Rental of Lamborghini Aventador - $4585.98
• Total - $5625.98

Yeah, this one's going to have to wait 'til I'm older and established enough to blow ~5500 in a weekend.
