Renting a car can be a viable solution if you're on a trip to a foreign country and you hate driving all the way there. So if you're a bit more lazy like I am I think renting a car is a good choice. I sincerely believe (although prices are fluctuating) that you shouldn't need that much money to rent a car or inchirieri masini (with the competition and all) but it really depends on what you want to drive. You can't rent a mercedes for 20 $ a day that's for sure but i don't get people who are renting a car for 6 months when they can buy it )
