I rented the Lotus Emira for a full day and it was an absolute blast from the moment I got behind the wheel. This car is pure driving joy in a sleek, lightweight package. Scott recommended to crack the window and put it on track mode… best recommendation from a great host. The sound of this car is absolutely exhilarating! Handling and stance makes you feel like you are in formula 1 car. Pick up, drop off, communication couldn’t be easier What a fun car to drive! Would rent again in a heartbeat.
top guy, quick pickup, explained everything well, patient, and the car was wonderful. would rent again.
Amazing ride. The 2024 Lotus Emira is smooth, sleek, and insanely fun to drive. Its everything you want in a 2 seater sports car. Scott was fantastic and clearly knows what he is doing. He has a great operation going, and we would rent from him every time in Florida. That car tho… absolutely loved it. Totally worth it, totally cool.
Bradley's Lotus Emira was impeccably detailed and looked like it came directly from the showroom. I always wanted to drive this Lotus as it is the last petrol engine that Lotus will offer going forward. The sound of the engine is amazing and it crackles and pops. Also, nothing like the sound of the supercharger kicking in. You will never want to turn on the radio in this vehicle. Short shift manual 6 speed adds to the thrill. The car turns heads wherever you drive. I rented this car Memorial Day weekend to take a memorable drive with my son. Right from the start, it was so quick and easy to get the car situated and handed off. Bradley was gracious enough to let me park my car there for the time I rented it. The supercharged V6 engine and precise manual transmission made every moment behind the wheel thrilling, while the car's sharp handling and comfortable, upscale interior made the ride enjoyable for both of us. It truly felt like a perfect blend of race-inspired engineering and everyday luxury. What made the experience even more special was sharing it with my son. The drive became more than just a car rental—it turned into a father-son adventure filled with laughter, great conversation, and unforgettable memories. If you're ever thinking about renting a sports car that delivers both excitement and connection, this Lotus is the one to pick. Don't overlook this one when on Turo.
Great car, host was fantastic - was available and responsive, would rent this Lotus again in a heartbeat.

Car was amazing. Rodrigo answered instantly. Very friendly. Description and details were exactly as described.
The Lotus was Awesome 💯 It's hard to believe it was a 2014 car. I used it as a transport for my daughter at her 8th grade dance, and it definitely turned heads. And as a car enthusiast I loved driving it and experiencing the fun of a Lotus. Pick-up was easy and location was good. And Chris was very responsive during the ride. Helped me with getting comfortable with the initial start-up of the car. Overall a great first experience with Turo! Definitely hope to rent through Chris again!
Super car! Christopher and Kevin are exceptional hosts. Will definitely look for it again when I am back in the area!
Amazing host and best bang for the buck car I've ever driven, and I've driven a lot of exotics! Will definitely rent again!
Absolutely amazing car and an unforgettable experience! The vehicle was in excellent condition, drove beautifully, and made the whole trip feel special. It definitely turns heads and gets a lot of attention on the road. The host was great, and the pickup/return process was smooth and easy. Highly recommend — I would absolutely rent again!
Car was amazing, the hospitality to make sure my pick up and drop off was incredible. Would absolutely seek to rent from them again.
