Host was pleasant to deal with, vehicle was perfect, basically brand new. Vehicle is electric though so you will need to download Tesla app, blink app or some charging app to charge up the vehicle.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had an excellent experience renting this Corvette from Andrew. The car was exceptionally well maintained and spotless, both inside and out. It was ready to go with a full tank of gas, which was a great start to the trip. Andrew was fantastic to work with. He took the time to thoroughly walk me through the vehicle, including how to remove and reinstall the hard top, as well as the different driving modes and features. His knowledge of the car was impressive, and he made sure I was comfortable before I left. Throughout the rental, Andrew was always available to answer any questions and responded quickly whenever I reached out. I highly recommend renting from him if you’re looking for a smooth, professional, and enjoyable Turo experience. I’ll definitely be renting from him again!
