CLUB SPORTIVA – FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do I join Club Sportiva?
Please call (866.719.1600) or email us today to learn more about the Club and arrange for a personal tour of our Clubhouse and Paddock. Club Sportiva accepts a limited number of new Members each month. This allows us to maintain a premium level of service while also giving us a better chance to know our Members.
Why should I join Club Sportiva?
Club Sportiva provides a way for our members to enjoy the thrill of driving fun, exotic and luxury vehicles without enduring the complications of ownership. We are a member-driven organization passionately dedicated to giving you the ultimate driving experience you deserve and we are always trying to identify new ways we can enhance our Member's experiences, improve our stable of sports cars and expand both offsite and onsite club events.
How long has Club Sportiva been established?
Club Sportiva is in its sixth year of successful operation as the strong leader in our growing category. Club Sportiva pioneered the luxury car share segment and continues to be the most innovative company in this exciting industry.
Do I need to own a luxury car to join the club?
No, the whole idea behind Club Sportiva is for people who want to drive these exciting vehicles but don't want the complications and costs that go along with ownership. It is an affordable alternative to owning. Many of our Members, however, do already own a fun weekend car or two and love the flexibility Club Sportiva allows them.
Who owns Club Sportiva’s cars?
Club Sportiva owns and maintains the cars in our paddock.
What is the LeasePlus program?
Club Sportiva can also provide you a luxury car for everyday use along with membership. Using our custom LeasePlus program, you get the best of both worlds. Our popular LeasePlus program allows you to lease a luxury car, as you already do, for daily transportation plus the enjoyment and excitement of a couple days per month of use with the exotic and luxury cars of the Club Sportiva Collection.
How does LeasePlus work?
You benefit from Club Sportiva’s buying power as we negotiate the best traditional lease rate through our brokerage service and pass on the savings to you while allowing you to pick an easy, single monthly membership payment plan that also gives you easy access to the entire Collection for those fun opportunities when a Ferrari or Bentley is uniquely suited. LeasePlus is straight forward and simple with a convenient single monthly payment.
What is the condition of your cars?
All vehicles have been hand-selected by Club Sportiva. Their interiors and exteriors are in excellent condition. Moreover, the mechanical condition of each vehicle is pristine.
Can I switch cars and try several?
That's what Club Sportiva is all about. You can use a different car every day, or keep one car for a three-day weekend. Owning your own sports car isn't nearly as fun!
Can I use a car for an entire week?
Of course! All that's needed is a reservation.
Are there mileage restrictions?
The number of miles you drive is unlimited on the Enthusiast Collection. Elite Collection vehicles vary. Members are encouraged to enjoy themselves as if the cars are an extension of your own garage.
Do I need my own car insurance?
Yes. But don't worry; most policies cover all the cars in Club Sportiva's stable.
Will I have trouble operating my car?
Each vehicle has its own charm and character. Club Sportiva ensures you are comfortable in each vehicle you use by providing a comprehensive "driver control tutorial," covering everything from starting the ignition to operating the convertible top and radio.
Is roadside assistance available?
Club Sportiva has partnered with an established travel company to offer a comprehensive 24/7 Roadside Assistance Policy that is there if you need it.
Where are you located?
Club Sportiva currently has locations in San Francisco, San Jose and Munich, Germany. Our flagship clubhouse in San Francisco offers 10,000 square feet of facilities for meetings, socializing and housing our fleet of vehicles. We have partner locations in San Diego, Las Vegas and New York City serving our Members as they travel for work or pleasure. Club Sportiva will continue to add new locations in premier markets across the United States.
How do I reserve a car?
Just click your mouse to our convenient Member login or simply call us. Vehicles are reserved in advance, on a first-come, first-served basis. Cars are available last minute and of course, you can always reserve a particular vehicle early, for that special event six months out too.
Why is a point system used?
A Ferrari is not equivalent to a Porsche, nor is a Bentley to a Lotus. All are unique and desirable vehicles; however, a point system allows you to maximize your point usage.
Where do I park my car when I pick up a Club Sportiva car?
Club Sportiva offers secure parking at both locations for your vehicle while you are out enjoying one of ours.
Can you deliver a Club car to my home or office?
Yes, certainly. Club Sportiva has a custom enclosed carrier and we do deliveries to our busy clients seven days a week.
Do I have to return my car clean?
All of our vehicles are thoroughly detailed for your pick up, and once again when you drop it off.
How much storage space is there in the car?
If you're planning a weekend trip to Carmel with two suitcases in tow, the Ferrari isn't for you. But the Maserati or Porsche might be perfect. Soft duffel bags work best! Each vehicle is different and we'll help you select the one that suits your particular needs.
