You can easily get a quote together on TireRack, I am getting larger PS2s, 295/30/19 and 265/30/19 and they will cost AUD$2,500 shipped via air with duty paid (if charged duty). Here in Australia, that would be around $4,000 from my research.
I rented the C6 through Avis - second time I did it this year and I found the trick is to book early and get the rental squared away - trying to book within a month or so of the rental can cause the price to jump up 50% or more.
It was around USD$2,700 I think for 17 days and 4,000km and honestly anything less than a new Vette is absolutely painful to drive after owning an M3
(trust me we hired a PT Cruiser for a couple of days in DC and it was more fun to walk).
Sorry to any PT Cruiser owners
