They actually make me a bit of money but they are getting miles quickly, thus I look at it more like a business and a fun way of rotating cars. The M2 has been closer to break even since it doesn't command the rate of the GT350 or the utilization of the Fiesta ST.
I mostly get car enthusiasts that drive manual, if I feel suspect of someone I will have them take me for a short drive. 125 rentals later, only 2 people I turned down and no major horror stories other than the Fiesta ST being in 2 accidents (which Turo covered). I certainly presume the clutch life will suffer since anyone renting these cars is almost always heading to the canyons, but I don't plan on keeping them past warranty.
