Do you want to make stops at odd places along the way or is there any other reason for not just taking the train?

Guess I have the same question: why not take the train? Faster, and less expensive, unless there are a fair amount of you to split the cost. Still, it's nice to have a roomy train seat, big windows, and a restroom onboard!

Unless there is someone with mobility issues in your party, the high speed train is a faster and cheaper choice.
A private car will cost you approximately 600 euro and the travel time is about 3 hours.
The high speed train takes you city center to city center in 2 hours and a standard class seat costs from 34 to 57 euro per person (depending on available discounts)

Any driver working for Trenitalia or Italotreno would be recommended.
