Friend of mine signed up for one.
she lives in NYC and it makes perfect sense for her.

She uses public transportation to get to work. She can walk to get her groceries and do laundry. She's lived in the states for 12 years and never had a car. She just got her drivers license a few months ago. To buy a car and insure it is not worth the monet in her case as she has no real need for a car on a daily basis. However there are a few time a year when she likes the convenience such as coming out to visit us and not worry about train schedules, or when she wants to do some hardcore shopping. She signed up for zip (or whatever service it is) car.
Beats pissing away money on car insurance and car payments for something that she doesn't really need.
