Airbnb for cars. Very cool idea, but some concerns:
I assume the car is unlocked via a cellular uplink, rather than connecting as a local hotspot over wifi or bluetooth (since you can track the car online). What happens when it's in a garage with no signal?
Many newer cars have chips in the keys, tied to a system in the engine that prevents it from starting without the proper code. This means I have to leave a key in their box to start the car. If someone smashes the window, it's now much easier for them to steal my car.
I'd worry about wear-and-tear. Rental cars are rolled every couple years, you can buy cheap because they are often beaten.
