Sports car rental in Hamburg

At CarVia you can rent a real sports car in Hamburg - Porsche 911 Carrera, BMW M4 Competition, Mercedes-AMG CLE 53, Ford Mustang GT - and take it along the Elbe to the coast or onto the unrestricted A7. Pick-up is at our car rental station in Hamburg in St. Georg, a 5-minute walk from the main train station.

Or we deliver the sports car to your hotel or to Hamburg Airport (HAM) - the delivery fee is shown instantly during booking. Your US driver's license is all you need, and you get exactly the car you booked, no "or similar".

Which sports car to rent in Hamburg

Hamburg's sports car lineup is built around the classics: the Porsche 911 Carrera as Coupe with 379 hp (385 PS) and as Cabriolet with 388 hp (394 PS), the BMW M4 Competition Coupe with 523 hp (530 PS) and the M3 Competition Touring with 503 hp (510 PS) - the fast wagon BMW doesn't sell in the US - the Mercedes-AMG CLE 53 Coupe with 443 hp (449 PS), and the Ford Mustang GT Convertible with the 5.0-liter Coyote V8, for anyone who wants to hear an American engine on a German autobahn. The booking form above shows which of them are in Hamburg for your dates.

Not stationed here but on request from our other German stations: the 911 GT3, the 718 Cayman GT4 RS, the Audi R8, the Lamborghini Urus and the Ferrari Roma. Whatever you pick, it's guaranteed - no "or similar".

For the autobahn: M4 or 911. For the coast roads: the 911 Cabriolet or the Mustang, top down - see our convertible rental in Hamburg.

Where to drive a sports car around Hamburg

Autobahn: the A7 north toward Flensburg and the A1 toward Bremen have long stretches without a speed limit - and the A7 is flat, straight and empty on a weekday morning.

Baltic coast: Travemünde and the beaches of the Lübeck Bay are an hour away, the Holstein lake district on the way; further up, Fehmarn and the bridge to the island in two.

North Sea and Sylt: the North Sea coast at Sankt Peter-Ording is two hours, Sylt three and a half with the car train from Niebüll - drive the sports car onto the train and off again on the island.

City: the Elbchaussee along the river, the HafenCity, the old Elbe tunnel - and the Lüneburg Heath an hour south when you want country roads. One-way rentals to Berlin or Munich are possible, see our one-way rental page.

The best prices for cars in Germany. Good communication with customers, the deposit was returned the next day. I recommend👍

Great company. Rented a GT4 in Stuttgart, they took the time to walk around the car to document any damages, asked for me to take pictures and videos. Great process, Car was clean and in excellent shape. Super service, could not be happier. I will have to do a trip every year from now on.

Fantastic service that I wish we had in Australia. Will definitely use again when in Germany. Great selection of cars at reasonable prices with great professional service. Had a Cayman GTS this time around for a few days and look forward to trying some of the other fleet vehicles next time!

I hired an M3 Touring through this outfit and it was a great experience. The guy who handed over the car was really accommodating and helpful. The car was phenomenal and everything in the process was super simple and straight forward. Definitely recommend!

Such an awesome experience! Rented a BMW M3 and the ride was such an amazing experience. Pick up was in Munich and drop off was in Salzburg and each time was ABSOLUTELY seamless. Will definitely rent again when I'm in Germany!
