The Future of Exotic Car Experiences
Redefining exotic and luxury car rentals through community, technology, and unparalleled experiences
The Luxury Car Rental Market is Broken
Fragmented Experience
Exotic car rentals scattered across dozens of independent operators with inconsistent policies, pricing, and service standards
Hidden Fees Everywhere
Turo charges hosts 20-60% in fees, while renters face surprise charges, poor insurance coverage, and zero customer support
Exclusionary Barriers
Traditional car clubs require $50K+ memberships, while enterprise rentals companies overcharge for basic luxury vehicles without exotic options
High-net-worth individuals and automotive enthusiasts deserve better.
The current landscape forces them to choose between overpriced enterprise options, unreliable peer-to-peer platforms, or exclusive clubs with prohibitive membership fees.
