About UsThe Vancouver Car Club is a new concept in exotic & luxury cars ownership that gives its members access to a changing pool of exceptional cars to drive. Most of us have a list of cars we are passionate about, and gaze longingly at in the magazines and streets. However, unless you have a very close personal friend named Jay Leno… the list is long, life is short, & your garage/wallet is never big enough.
How it works. You Buy a Fractional Interest in the car you want — from our long list. We then purchase, maintain, store & insure the car You get four (4) weeks of driving for each ownership unit purchased per year. You actually own an interest in that car — not a time share. If you choose not to drive your allotted days we will market & manage the rentals for you. Fractional Ownership Inquiries : [email protected] Luxury & Exotic Car Rentals

Fractionalize your car...Sell half, or all, of your car!
Convert the value in your current exotic or luxury vehicle as an entry point into the club. We have a special conversion program to absorb your private vehicle (no lease cars) into the club pool – in exchange for some special membership benefits and, of course — the keys to the other cars in our pool. If you have a Ferrari, Lamborghini, Bentley, Maserati, Porsche or other late model high-end vehicle that is sitting underappreciated in your garage, or want to “rationalize” part of your car collection? Many exotic drivers and car collectors have a classic, luxury or exotic vehicles that are substantially under utilized, or are they just ready to move on from. These cars and may qualify to be brought into our pool. Contact us to discuss your vehicle(s). [email protected] |

Got a favourite vehicle that is not in the club’s pool yet? Can’t wait for us to get around to buying it? Fund the capital costs of purchasing this car, and we will pay you a monthly rate, and/or offset your membership fees in kind. Also, see the “Fractionalize Your Car” section — as this is another ownership option where we purchase a car for several select owners exclusive use, & manage the vehicle for them in the same manner as other vehicles in the general club pool.

Bring us your enthusiasm — and chequebook. The goal is to set up a North-American wide chapters to allow for both a larger pool of vehicles and facilitate road trips between these cities. (Hwy 1 along the California & Oregon coast has just been repaved… so San Francisco is high on our list.)

About Us.
Serial entrepreneur, car guy, and club owner, Ward Stirrat, helped launch a fractional yacht ownership business on Granville Island in 2007 — a business that purchases & manages luxury yachts for a group of owners. So, it was an evolution of that business model that got him thinking of a way to get through his list of “Cars to own/drive before I die…“ |
And, what better way to start your mid-life crisis than with a little red sports car — surely a modest, but romantic, choice of “The official sports car of summer” — a pristine 1992 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce bought in California, and driven 900+ miles up the coastal highway at soul-satisfying velocities. Part way through the drive Ward started thinking “boy, I would love to do this drive again in a new Lotus Elise, …. then, again, in that 1963 Maserati convertible I saw in AutoTrader last week…” well, you can see how this whole thing got started.

We are about a driving passion for the art and engineering of great automobiles (past & present) and the unique experience they deliver to us on the road, track, or even standing still in the garage. We are also looking for some interesting garage/club space to grow into… Do you own an interesting and suitable building that has space, you may want to accommodate the club in such a space in exchange for access to “the garage” and a set of keys? Call Ward about your ideas and space.
We are always looking to welcome new members, donors, enthusiasts wanting to “get in on a garage-floor opportunity.” |
