Fantastic car for cruising around the island definitely a highlight of our trip! We loved taking the top off and soaking in the incredible scenery. The entire rental process was seamless, with the host delivering the car to our hotel freshly detailed and ready to go. If you’re visiting Kaua’i, I highly recommend renting this car to elevate your experience. 10/10!

Barry is a great guy and the car was perfect. I’ve owned 14 corvettes since 1974 and decided to try the new C8 and Barry’s car really filled the bill as it is the highly optioned 3LT model and a convertible to boot. His price was very reasonable compared to the other cars on the island that offered less and cost more. I highly recommend both Barry and his beautiful Corvette!

I highly recommend this car for your Oahu Trip. Nothing beats driving a Corvette along the coastal highways and views with the top off. We had a memorable vacation and this vehicle was one of the best parts.

First time I am using Turo. I can say it is a great option to rent a car for a very good price. The pick up and drop off the car was very easy and simple. Excellent instructions from the host to show you how things will happen. The car is in very good condition and a big pleasure to enjoy a ride in Oahu island Hawaii. Thank you very much. For sure I will choose the same host and app for renting a car!!!

I rented the C8 Stingray for my trip in Hawaii. Pricey for a rental car for your trip, but it was so worth it driving without the top in a beautiful sports car around the island. Especially the scenic routes. The car was clean and super easy to pick up. All you gotta do is show up and follow the instructions from Matthew. Matthew was attentive and informative, what more can you ask from a host!

Discover Queensland's highlights from Brisbane Airport

Brisbane Airport positions you perfectly to explore some of Australia's most captivating destinations. The Gold Coast's famous beaches and theme parks await to the south, while the Sunshine Coast's relaxed coastal towns beckon to the north. Brisbane's vibrant cultural precincts, including South Bank and Fortitude Valley, offer world-class dining and entertainment. A sports car transforms these journeys into exhilarating experiences, with responsive handling that makes navigating Queensland's scenic highways and urban streets an absolute pleasure.


South Bank Parklands and Cultural Precinct

South Bank stands as Brisbane's premier cultural and recreational hub, featuring world-class museums, galleries, and the iconic Streets Beach. The precinct buzzes with activity day and night, offering everything from fine dining to weekend markets. Parking facilities are readily available throughout the area, making it easily accessible from the airport. The drive through Brisbane's inner-city streets provides an excellent opportunity to experience your sports car's precision handling while navigating the urban environment. The riverside location offers stunning views of the Brisbane River and city skyline.


Mount Coot-tha Lookout and Botanic Gardens

Mount Coot-tha offers Brisbane's most spectacular panoramic views, stretching from the city skyline to Moreton Bay. The winding road to the summit provides an engaging driving experience through lush bushland. The adjacent Botanic Gardens showcase native Australian flora across peaceful walking trails. Ample parking facilities serve both the lookout and gardens, while the scenic route from the city centre takes you through some of Brisbane's most prestigious suburbs.


Story Bridge and Kangaroo Point Cliffs

The iconic Story Bridge represents one of Brisbane's most recognisable landmarks, connecting the CBD with the trendy Kangaroo Point precinct. The area beneath offers excellent riverside dining and the famous Kangaroo Point Cliffs, popular for rock climbing and picnicking. Driving across the bridge in a sports car provides an unforgettable experience, with sweeping views of the Brisbane River and city. The Kangaroo Point area features convenient parking options and serves as an ideal spot to appreciate your vehicle's sleek design against the backdrop of Brisbane's impressive skyline.


Moreton Island and ferry terminal access

Moreton Island, the world's third-largest sand island, offers pristine beaches and crystal-clear waters perfect for snorkelling and whale watching. The ferry terminal at Port of Brisbane provides easy access to this natural paradise. While the island itself requires four-wheel drive vehicles, the journey to the ferry terminal showcases Brisbane's industrial heritage and port facilities. The coastal roads leading to the departure point offer smooth surfaces ideal for sports car driving.


Brisbane River and CityCat terminals

The Brisbane River winds through the heart of the city, connecting numerous suburbs and attractions via the popular CityCat ferry service. Multiple terminals along the riverbank provide access to different precincts, from the University of Queensland to the bustling Eagle Street Pier. Driving along the river's edge reveals Brisbane's diverse architecture and lifestyle, with riverside parks and dining precincts creating perfect stopping points. The well-maintained roads following the river's path offer an excellent opportunity to enjoy your sports car's performance while taking in the scenic waterway views and vibrant urban landscape.
