5 stars all day. Rented the convertible Porsche for our Vegas trip and it was an absolute dream. The car was kept at the airport for us, so pickup was seamless — no waiting, no rental counter, just keys and go. Spotless, perfectly maintained, and a total head-turner with the top down on the Strip. Communication from the host was quick and professional from start to finish. We highly recommend this beautiful ride. Will rent again next trip!
Amazing host and an excellent experience from start to finish. The car was beautiful, extremely clean, and had absolutely no issues the entire trip. Communication was fast and responsive, making the whole rental process smooth and stress-free. I would definitely rent from them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and well-maintained vehicle.
Absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish! The vehicle was exactly as described—clean, well-maintained, and drove perfectly throughout my trip. The host was friendly, professional, and very responsive to any questions I had. Pickup and drop-off were smooth and hassle-free, making the entire rental process easy and stress-free. I would definitely rent from this host again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and enjoyable Turo experience. Thank you for making my trip great 💪🏿💪🏿
I will give a 5 star because the host was nice how ever the address that’s posted on the app for pick up and drop off are not where you will be picking up and dropping off. No clear instructions language barrier may have been the issue. I had to pick up the car at the airport parking structure which was a bit difficult specially if you’re not familiar wasn’t hard after I figure it out but price and everything else was fine. Would be nice to know where you are dropping off and picking up car ahead of reservation
Absolutely fantastic experience. The car was in excellent condition, very clean, and clearly well maintained. The host was responsive, professional, and attentive throughout the entire rental process. Everything was exactly as described, making the trip smooth and stress free. I would definitely rent from this host again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable vehicle. Book with confidence. Five stars all the way!
Absolutely great experience from start to finish. Communication was excellent with very fast responses to messages, which made the entire process simple and stress-free. The car was extremely clean, well maintained, and drove perfectly throughout the trip. Pickup and drop off were quick and easy, making everything much more convenient than dealing with traditional airport rental companies. Overall, a smooth and hassle-free experience. Highly recommend and would definitely rent again!
It was really amazing zipping around Las Vegas in this beauty, especially with the top down. She is very well maintained and has some slight weat and tear that is expected. The breaks were a little squeaky. Nothing was enough to take this from 5 stars though. The host was very quick to respond and helpful with questions I had. Purple is my favorite color 💜 so it made it extra special for me. I would definitely rent this car again if I can for my next trip to Vegas. One thing that puts this host above so many is that they allow you to pick up from the airport rental lot. Some hosts charge for that but this host did not (which may have been due to demand/surge pricing or maybe they build it in to the rental price). That made getting the vehicle so breezy! Would give 10 stars if aI could!
Absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish! The Ford Mustang Convertible was spotless, well-maintained, and an absolute blast to drive. There’s nothing quite like cruising with the top down, and this car made every mile enjoyable. The vehicle was exactly as described, ran perfectly, and turned heads everywhere I went. Pickup and drop-off were smooth and hassle-free, and the host was professional, responsive, and easy to communicate with throughout the trip. One of the best Turo experiences I’ve had. Highly recommended, and I would definitely rent this Mustang again!
Allow me to set the scene, I had a free rental through a popular rental car chain but decided to take the road less traveled and grab a vehicle on Turo for this trip. Besides coming to Hawaii, this was the best decision I’ve made. Burak was very kind and helpful through this experience and the ride was amazing! It was a decision of a bigger vehicle or convertible, but a convertible with three other adults just seemed cramped. Well this 2026 Jeep Wrangler gave us space and an automatic retracting roof. Push a button and it does the work. The speakers switched to overhead automatically so we could still vibe. Going through the canyon with that open to hit north shore was a perfect moment. I even extended by a day and Burak quickly approved. I would definitely rent another vehicle through him for future trips.
Wow. Just wow. If you’re planning to rent a car while in Oahu, this Ford Mustang convertible is absolutely the way to do it. There’s nothing like dropping the top and cruising along the island coastlines with the Hawaiian sun and ocean views around you. It honestly became one of the highlights of our trip. The car itself was spotless, fun to drive, and perfect for exploring the island. But what really made the experience exceptional was Gabriel. From start to finish, he was incredibly responsive, professional, and accommodating. Pick-up and drop-off were seamless, and he went out of his way to make everything easy and stress-free for our family. If you’re considering renting a vehicle in Oahu, do yourself a favor and rent from Gabriel. You won’t regret it!
The car was super clean, drove great, and the whole rental process was smooth and easy. Host was responsive and helpful. Would definitely rent again!
Great trip! Responsive and helpful host. Took the bus to the lot, owner unlocked the car, and we were free. Reverse for pickup - exactly what I was hoping for. Great car for getting around the city and good fun with the convertible top. Bring a Type A to USB -C for Android Auto .
Amazing trip! The car was amazing and the whole rental process when smoothly and great!

Frequently asked questions in Madison
Why choose a convertible for Madison road trips?
Madison offers scenic Wisconsin countryside perfect for rental convertible adventures with the top down. The city's location provides easy access to beautiful lakefront drives around Lake Mendota and Lake Monona, where convertible car rentals let you fully experience the fresh air and panoramic views. Wisconsin's rolling hills and charming small towns become even more enjoyable when you can feel the breeze during your Madison road trip.
How do convertible roofs work?
Modern rental convertibles feature either soft fabric tops or retractable hardtops that operate with the push of a button. Soft-top convertibles use hydraulic systems to fold the canvas roof into a compartment behind the rear seats, while hardtop models store rigid panels in the trunk area. Most convertible car rentals in Madison require the vehicle to be stationary or moving very slowly when operating the roof mechanism for safety reasons.
What safety tips matter for convertible driving?
Always secure loose items before lowering the top on your rental convertible, as Wisconsin winds can easily blow objects from the vehicle. Wear sunglasses and apply sunscreen since rental convertibles provide less UV protection than enclosed vehicles. Keep your driver's license and rental agreement in a secure pocket or compartment, as open-air driving in Madison can create unexpected gusts that might scatter paperwork.
Which Wisconsin routes suit convertibles best?
The scenic drives around Madison's lakes offer perfect rental convertible experiences with gentle curves and stunning water views. Wisconsin's Great River Road provides spectacular Mississippi River vistas ideal for open-top driving adventures. Rural routes through Wisconsin's Driftless Area feature rolling hills and charming farmland that showcase the state's natural beauty when experienced in a convertible car rental.
How to pack smart for convertible travel?
Pack light and use soft bags that fit easily in your rental convertible's limited trunk space, especially if the top mechanism takes up storage room. Bring a light jacket or sweater for Wisconsin's variable weather, as temperatures can change quickly during your Madison rental day. Secure all items in closed compartments or use bungee cords, since rental convertibles expose belongings to wind when the top is down.
When should you avoid driving convertibles?
Wisconsin weather can change rapidly, so check forecasts before taking your rental convertible on longer trips around Madison. Avoid driving with the top down during heavy rain, snow, or severe thunderstorms that are common in the region. Consider keeping the roof up in dusty areas or during high pollen seasons, as rental convertibles offer less protection from airborne particles than traditional vehicles.
