Something New: La Dolce Vita

Since launching Motor City Vintage Rentals in 2011, Kymberly Andren has curated a fleet of beautiful, Detroit-made classic cars from the 1940s that includes multiple Packards and a Ford Deluxe Convertible. But recently Andren stretched beyond her Motor City roots to add a bit of European flair to her collection of iconic vintage cars, introducing a 1957 Porsche Speedster named Caspian.

“I’m obsessed with Detroit auto history, it’s in my blood,” she says. However, Europe also holds a piece of her heart. Starting in sixth grade, Andren studied French for nearly 10 years, and she’s also explored all over the continent for personal travel and work.

“Traveling from London to Paris, Munich to Brussels, Salzberg to Madrid and Rome, I quickly fell in love with the European culture and its classic sports cars,” she says. “You can say I’ve waited a few decades to add this chic, romantic, and adventurous speedster.”

Couples who want to incorporate Caspian’s adventurous spirit into their own big day are in good hands. Andren’s lifelong love of cars blossomed into a business when she sourced her first Packard, Hugo, for her own wedding, and her father and husband serve as the company’s drivers to this day.

“Our one-of-a-kind drivers do anything for anyone, and I’m not just saying that because they’re my dad and husband,” she says. “We’re a family-owned-and-operated company that always goes above and beyond for our clients, who we consider one of the family because that’s who they are.”
