In addition, any reservations booked via Turo are subject to Turo rental policies and cancellation policies on top of Sawa Supercars Terms and Conditions below.

1. All renters and authorized additional drivers must be over 25 years of age, be a US resident, and have a valid driver’s license to drive Sawa Supercars cars, no exceptions. Additional driver’s cost $80/day limit 2 per car. All renters are required to provide two separate forms of identification which would include driver’s license and major credit card/debit card or passport. At least one ID must have a picture on it. All renters must have a clean driving record and no major criminal record, no felonies, or violent crimes and no DUIs/DWIs. Sawa Supercars reserves the right to cancel any reservation where the renter is considered not qualified based on either of the two factors stated, even after the rental has begun.

2. All renters/drivers must provide evidence of car insurance coverage in their name that covers physical damage and liability. Renters who do not reside in the U.S. or do not have insurance that extends to the value of our vehicle are not able to rent our vehicles. Sawa Supercars will contact the renter’s insurance company to verify sufficient coverage is in place. We verify all Renter’s insurance coverages in advance and list that data on the rental agreement. If a renter has U.S. car insurance, we require them to use it if it covers the rental. Their deposit acts as the deductible only which covers damages and loss of use costs. A Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) is also offered in some cases that typically is priced at $299 and protects up to $1,000 of physical damage.

3. All renters are required to pay a deposit authorization on a major credit card prior to rental in addition to the cost of the actual rental fees. Deposits vary between $500 and $10,000 based on the vehicle selected, per vehicle, per reservation. This deposit is an authorization hold identical to the type of transaction taken by a hotel. It is taken on the day of the rental and is released at the conclusion of the rental. It is not a transaction in most cases, just a hold of the funds. It will reappear on the card as available funds in 3 to 5 business days less any costs associated with the end of the rental that are deducted if needed. Within 24 hours or less prior to rental delivery or pick-up, Sawa Supercars will place the deposit authorization on the card on file. We must have this authorization successfully transacted in order to release the vehicle to the renter.

4. Once the reservation is booked, if you choose to cancel, YOU MAY RECEIVE A CREDIT VALID TOWARDS 50% OF A FUTURE RESERVATION ONLY. THIS IS NOT TRANSFERRABLE AND EXPIRES 6 MONTHS AFTER ISSUED. Besides this, there are NO REFUNDS FOR ANY REASON. In addition, any reservations booked via Turo are subject to Turo rental policies and cancellation policies. At the time of the reservation, Sawa Supercars will charge 100% of the total rental rate on a major credit card which is not refundable with zero exceptions. Sawa Supercars has specific vehicles in specific colors and trims; consider this the same as booking a wedding venue, it is one of a kind. If you think may need to cancel, do not book it.

5. Sawa Supercars does allow additional authorized drivers on most of our vehicles. These drivers must be entirely covered by their own insurance. In most cases, a person who is an additional driver on someone’s personal insurance is not covered to drive a rental vehicle. Our renter can make this change on their policy or ask Sawa Supercars to help. The party who is paying for the rental may reserve the vehicle for an additional driver. However, the party who is paying for the rental must be present at the time of delivery or pick-up to sign for the reservation and rental agreement. In the event this is not possible, Sawa Supercars will require the renter to send whatever documentation is necessary to feel comfortable there is no fraud being committed. Unfortunately, Sawa Supercars cannot rent to a renter who is paying for another person to drive and does not intend to be seen in person without these added measures.

6. All rentals include 50 to 100 daily miles per vehicle at no additional charge and are subject to an additional mileage rate of between $1.00 and $50.00 per mile which is stated on the final rental agreement. The additional fees for extra miles will be calculated at the end of the rental and charged to the renter’s credit card on file. Renter’s may purchase additional miles prior to the rental for a discount. If all the pre-purchased additional miles are not used, there is no refund allowed.

7. Some rentals are subject to a delivery fee which include many of our exotic vehicles. Any rentals outside of the area may include a fee. The area is presently considered 50 miles from 29 Industrial Park Drive Ste. 109 Hendersonville, TN 37075. In some cases, if the delivery is out of our radius, we may require a fee to pay for our flatbed tow truck to deliver and pickup. Rates vary based on distance. You may pay the towing company directly. There is an added fee for our employee’s role in the delivery and pickup. If a vehicle is rented or hired from Sawa Supercars Exotic Cars the renter/customer understands that should the service be provided, no refund is due.

Also, if a renter is determined to be deliberately gunning the engine and jamming the breaks in slow driving zones, or downshifting to first gear during the rental, the rental will be terminated, and Sawa Supercars will come to retrieve the vehicle and forfeit their entire deposit. If a vehicle is taken within 1 mile of any raceway or speedway Sawa Supercars reserves the right to cancel the rental and come retrieve the vehicle right away unless permission to visit a raceway has been approved by Sawa Supercars in advance in writing. In the event we determine the vehicles were driven off-road or on a racetrack, the customer will be liable for the retail purchase price of the vehicle based on the Kelly blue book value for that vehicle with the mileage documented on the rental agreement at the start of the rental.
