We go to Napa every year during the end of February to beginning of March time frame so I can't comment on traffic during the high season. It always kills me to be driving crappity rentals on those amazing roads but the only sportscar rentals I have found were in the $500/day range which I think is crazy.

As for cool drives if you do rent something fun, or even if you don't, look into some of the wineries off of US29 or the Silverado Trail up in the hills on either side of the valley. The drive up Spring Mountain Rd to Pride Winery is really cool and the wine is great. Viader and Cade Wineries are both up Howell Mountain on the East side of the valley, nice drive and great views. We went to Kuleto this year and is my new vote for most spectacular view in the valley. Also a very nice drive including several miles up their driveway with convex mirrors to see around the corners. You won't be going fast but its a beautiful ride. All of the above wineries are by reservation only so I would plan well in advance considering you'll be there during the high season.
