Pick up was okay, as the address was turn off of the street listed, but visible when driving by. I initially passed it because it wasn’t on the exact road. Accessing the car was easy from then on. The car wasn’t as clean as I’d like. It wasn’t washed, windows were dirty and dusty dash/insides. The pictures depict the type of car, but there’s exterior damage that I don’t think I’d seen or read up on beforehand. Yet, it was a good deal, the top and features in the car worked well; so, I didn’t mind at all! Lastly, I appreciate the host for being super quick and responsive to help when I didn’t know how to work one of the features and returned it late the night before, and that alone made it 5 stars! Thank you for all your help to make my trip n enjoyable one!

160 horses, couldn’t ask for more. Its incredible how little steering input you need for this car to turn. So planted you’ll forget its on 195 wide tires. Buttery shifter, grabby clutch. Responsive steering. A great weekend for a driving enthusiast who thinks he can drive but he can’t. Smooth check in and check out. Well maintained vehicle.

Frequently asked questions in Newark

Why choose a convertible for your Newark adventure?

Convertibles offer an unmatched open-air driving experience perfect for exploring Newark and the greater New Jersey area. The freedom to drop the top transforms ordinary drives into memorable adventures, whether you're cruising through downtown Newark or heading toward Manhattan for a day trip. With easy access to scenic routes and the ability to fully appreciate New York's skyline views, a convertible car rental enhances every moment of your journey.

How do you operate a convertible roof properly?

Most modern convertibles feature automated roof systems activated by a simple button or switch, typically requiring the car to be stationary or moving at very low speeds. Always ensure windows are slightly lowered before operating the roof mechanism to prevent pressure buildup, and check that the area above your car is clear of obstacles. The process usually takes 15-30 seconds, and you'll hear the motor stop when the roof reaches its fully open or closed position.

What safety tips should convertible drivers follow?

Always secure loose items before dropping the top, as wind can easily carry away papers, hats, or lightweight objects during your Newark area travels. Wear sunglasses and apply sunscreen generously, since convertible driving increases sun exposure significantly compared to enclosed vehicles. Keep your speed moderate when the top is down, as wind noise can make it difficult to hear sirens or other important traffic sounds around busy areas like Newark Liberty International Airport.

Which scenic routes near Newark suit convertibles best?

The drive along the Hudson River offers spectacular views of the Manhattan skyline, making it perfect for convertible enthusiasts visiting the Newark area. Routes through nearby parks and tree-lined streets in New Jersey provide beautiful canopies and changing scenery ideal for open-top driving. Consider exploring roads that connect Newark to Washington or other nearby destinations, where you can fully appreciate the landscape and architectural diversity of the region.

How should you pack for a convertible road trip?

Pack light and secure all belongings in the trunk or enclosed compartments, as open-air driving can cause items to shift or blow away during your Newark adventure. Choose clothing that won't be damaged by wind, and bring layers since convertible driving can feel cooler than expected, especially when traveling between Newark and surrounding areas. Always pack a hat or hair tie, and consider bringing a light jacket even on warm days since wind chill affects comfort levels significantly.

What weather factors affect convertible driving?

Wind speed and direction greatly impact convertible comfort, with strong crosswinds making conversation difficult and affecting hair and loose clothing during drives around Newark and New Jersey. Temperature variations become more noticeable in open-air vehicles, as direct sunlight can feel intense while moving air creates cooling effects. Rain obviously requires keeping the top up, but even overcast skies can make convertible driving enjoyable when exploring routes between Newark, Manhattan, or other nearby destinations.

Is there unlimited mileage car rental on Turo?

Some hosts offer unlimited distance for a trip; others set a daily distance limit — you'll need to check on each rental car individually to see if this service is provided. On the vehicle pages, you'll see the total miles or kilometers you're allowed to drive under the heading "Distance included." You can find cars offering unlimited mileage with every trip by using the "Unlimited distance" filter.

What kind of license do I need to rent a car on Turo?

Licenses that Turo doesn't accept in the US include any that have expired, have been altered, are conditional, probational, provisional, or restricted.
