Make sure to get that insurance. I think the vette is only available at airport locations though.

Corvette ZHZ features a paddle-shift automatic transmission and 6.2-liter engine with plenty of reserve power for passing. The Corvette ZHZ also features a dual-mode exhaust system, magnetic selective ride control with "tour" and "sport" settings for a customized ride, and specific 18-inch front and 19-inch rear chrome seven-spoke performance wheels.

Alright, so I priced it out, and it's just over $150/day after all the fees and insurance (that adds about $50).

The kicker: you are limited to 100 miles/day and is 23 cents every mile over that.

I was seriously considering it until I saw this.

Is there any option so you can pay ahead for extra miles?

I'm sure if you can do it to new BMWs you can do it to a vette. Could be wrong though.

~50 miles would be consumed just getting to/from Irwindale, ~15 to/from Fontana.

Yeah, I'd have to be the wiring option since it would probably be cheaper to pay the 23 cents a mile on the car vs. the fuel cost to trailer it.
