what's the most expensive car you guys have had available?
Jessica Scorpio
@ashmotamedi Hey Ashkan - good question! It depends on whether you go off of MSRP or current market value. We have a brand new Tesla Model S P85D which rents for $45/hour: http://getaround.com/ModelS_P85D We also have an Audi R8 which rents for $100/hour. It's an amazing car, check it out: http://getaround.com/AudiR8

@ashmotamedi @jessicascorpio Thats a fantastic price for the R8! I have seen Groupon deals where you pay that much only to take the car around a track for 3 laps, which lasts about just 5 minutes. From the rims it looks to be the 4.2L V8. It'd be helpful to include that in the features description πŸ‘

@ashmotamedi @daspianist You know you're cars, Allan! I'll pass this feedback to the product team! I know they are already thinking about making trim info more prominent. More info on the R8: 4.2 quattro 2dr Coupe AWD (4.2L 8cyl 6M)

When I moved to SF I was pumped to have a cheaper, more convenient alternative to renting a car from Avis or Hertz or whatever. First experience was awesome, but from there I couldn't predictably get an owner to approve my requests (close enough to make it sensible for me) and I haven't used the app since. I'd love to know how this particular part of the experience plays out for others, or if the use case has shifted a bit? I saw it as a Zipcar alternative / far better than the traditional rental companies?

@dshan Hey David - thanks for trying Getaround and thanks for the feedback! We recently shifted to an entirely on-demand experience which means no more requests or waiting for approval from owners. If a car is available, you book it instantly! We have almost 1,000 cars available in and around SF. You can checkout cars here: https://www.getaround.com/search
