Stay away from mex car rental, especially at the airport. They will steal from you any way they can. This company, Next Auto Rent, in Bucharest was legitimate and inexpensive. After my first experience in Bucharest with a car rental company, I was weary to try again, but I'm glad I did. I took a road trip through Transylvania, hitting most of the bigger cities/tows there. The roads aren't bad and the trips can be done in two hour increments if you make stops through each of the points of interest. Transylvania was one of the most beautiful landscapes during the summer. Great people and great country. But Bucharest is a bit of a nightmare for travelling in car. I did it without too much stress because I've driven in many countries, but it can be very stressful when you are in a rental you do not want to scratch. Bucharest is relatively small and a car is not a necessity here. But if you do rent the car for Bucharest alone, drive carefully and do not rush it.
