Luxury car rental near Nuremberg Airport.
Flying into Nuremberg (NUE) and want more than a beige sedan? Straight talk: we don't have an airport counter. What we have is a real, owned fleet, Audi RS6 (600 hp), R8 Spyder, RS3, Mercedes-AMG E53 and BMW M440d convertible: in Weiden, roughly an hour's drive east of the airport. Pick up there, or ask about delivery to Nuremberg for a surcharge by arrangement. Full insurance always included, US license accepted, booked online in about 2 minutes.
Short answer: Can I rent a sports car at Nuremberg Airport (NUE)?
Not at the terminal, we have no airport counter. Our cars are in Weiden in der Oberpfalz, about 120 km or roughly 75 minutes east of the airport on the A6 and A93, and that is where the handover normally happens. Delivery is possible on request for a surcharge; we quote it per case on WhatsApp.
What you get instead of a rental desk: five owned cars from €229 to €449 per day, full comprehensive insurance in every rate, and a person who answers in English. Book your dates before you board, your confirmation arrives by email right after payment.

Luxury car rental near Nuremberg Airport: how it actually works
Search "luxury car rental Nuremberg Airport" and you'll find the terminal lined with the usual big chains renting the usual sensible sedans. What Nuremberg doesn't have, airport included, is a true high-performance rental with its own fleet. Nobody at the counter hands you the keys to an actual 600-hp RS6 or an AMG. That's the gap we fill.
Here's the honest version of the logistics, no fine print. We're based in Weiden in der Oberpfalz: about 120 km from Nuremberg, roughly 75 minutes on the A6 and A93 autobahn, which puts us around an hour's drive from the airport. There is no Performance Rentals desk in the terminal, and we won't pretend otherwise. You have two ways to get your car:
Option 1, pick up in Weiden. Standard and simplest: come out to our location, minutes from the autobahn, for a personal handover and walkthrough. The drive out is a warm-up lap through northern Bavaria; the drive back is in something with 400–600 horsepower.
Option 2, delivery by arrangement. Delivery to Nuremberg is available for a surcharge by arrangement, popular for weddings, photo shoots, and events. Flying in and want the car to meet you? Message us on WhatsApp with your dates and flight details and we'll tell you exactly what's possible and what it costs. A real human answers in minutes, in English.
Everything else is built for travelers: full insurance (Vollkasko) always included: none of that €30–€100/day "do you want coverage?" routine. US driver's licenses accepted, and US military / SOFA-status personnel are welcome on the same terms as everyone else. Book online in about 2 minutes, any hour of the day, we're our own fleet with 5.0 stars on Google from 49 real reviews, not a broker. Looking for the city rather than the airport?
