Inside Rennauto
We specialise in sourcing, showcasing and selling the most sought-after supercars in Australia.
Founded in Brisbane, Rennauto was built on passion, precision and trust. Our boutique approach blends deep automotive knowledge with a curated, client-first experience. No pushy sales. No mass volume. Just honest expertise and extraordinary cars.
How it Started
Rennauto was born from a shared obsession: finding, presenting and delivering the most exceptional cars on the market without the noise of traditional dealerships.
Founded by Tom, with Lucas joining later, the vision was simple: create a place where passion meets precision, and where clients feel like insiders, not just buyers.
Today, we focus on Ferrari, Porsche, McLaren and other rare machines, offering a boutique, highly personalised service to clients across Australia.
What drives us
At Rennauto, we're driven by a deep respect for automotive excellence and for the people who share that passion.
We believe in doing things the right way: transparent service, obsessive attention to detail, and honest relationships built over time.
We’re not here to sell you a car. We’re here to help you buy the right one with confidence.
Because when you deal with rare machines, trust matters more than horsepower.
