I'm visiting NYC from San Francisco. Years ago a friend of mine recommended Tel Aviv Limo service, and when I used it it was great - a good price, a nice comfortable car, and good service.
Yesterday when I landed at Newark my Tel Aviv car reservation was disappointing. A bumpy ride to my hotel in the Bronx in a not-very-clean Toyota minivan. Not a comfortable car. It seems Tel Aviv is now owned by Dial 7. The ride was equivalent to a cab ride.
Can you recommend a good car service at a good price and value that you have actually used recently? I fly out on Sunday and need to make a reservation.
I have had good luck with Boston Coach, though the service is quite a bit more expensive than the Dial 7 companies. Many of the bargain services are basically the equivalent of a dispatched cab. It's highly variable as to the driver/car.
As I was typing this, I asked a friend of mine what service they use as was told that WiroLimo is a good company, though you have to book online with them. They are a good value, too, flat-rate to the airports, from my friend's recommendation, $65+tip, which is less than half the cost of a limousine company with a professional chauffeur.

BostonCoach is a little pricey. My Tel Aviv / Dial 7 ride from Newark / EWR was $95, + $20 tip to the Bronx, basically Yankee Stadium. To return, BostonCoach is saying it's $150, plus tip.
WiroLimo looks like it might be more reasonable.
I wonder what a basic cab fare is between Newark/EWR and Yankee Stadium, does anyone know?

It's something like $75-$100+tip+return tolls from Manhattan to EWR. You should consider taking the subway to Penn Station and then taking a train to Newark Airport. It is 28 minutes out of Penn Station and will be less than $20 all in.

Another option would be express bus service from Penn Station to New Newark airport.
You could also take Metro-North to Grand Central and meet the express bus to EWR, as that would save the subway, which can be a pain, even with minimal luggage.
