This car feels like Batman commissioned a new bat mobile, but the joker stole all his money halfway through the project and they had to make do with a spare wheel and a motorcycle they had lying around.

The bat mobile lost a wheel and the joker got away!

Most people don’t seem to understand how to properly setup pricing to increase profitability off of Turo. There were about ten 911's of various levels all asking $400-600 a day (which is a common price for cars of that level on turo around here) and then there was one 911 turbo asking $90/day. That one had been rented 54 times, making at minumum about $5000, but likely MUCH more because most people rent the car for more than a day. The people who asked $400-600? They had between 0-2 rentals each, with their average earnings being a big fat $0 and the lucky few topping out at $1000.
There’s a hellcat asking $140 a day (full disclosure, I rented it) and the owner said she’s made almost $20,000 in Turo rentals because everyone else with nice cars try to price them to match the prestige, whereas she tries to put the Hellcat in a price range where the average person can grab in for a day or two, tell their friends, friends rent it, and so on and so forth

The renter just bumped the price $9 in the last 10 minutes but still a bargain for the fun you’ll have. Looks like a lot of the way overpriced stuff is gone from our area turo. Some of it was just plain stupid. 8 year old 5 series 200+ a day tesla for 400 and so on. My favorite is a guy with an old beat up f150 for 30 a day and has 115 trips. Over 3 grand that’s more than the truck is worth. That’s good business.

I’m sure I’ve done worse things with $60. One of those for a day would be fun.

Yep. I think the most rediculous one around here is a Stingray for $600 and a new RR Ghost for $1200.
I would love to buy a small fleet of interesting cars for rental use after school is no longer eating away at my resources... Friend of mine offsets his entire car payment and insurance via Turo (the performance trim v6 Camaro, every option checked)

That would be a cool idea. A bunch of odd cars all paying for themselves.
