Uber or other taxi like service in an E92

Does anyone know of a way to get paid for driving ? I want something like uber so I can randomly go at any time I feel like driving pick someone up and make some money for driving them around.

Problem is I drive in E92 so need a service that accepts 2dr cars. Perhaps we should petition to uber to offer a uber sports coupe service.

Personally I wouldnt want any random sitting in my car, let alone raking up the miles and using it as a taxi, for me its a luxury item (yes inno its relatively old and cheap) but im sure most people that drive a "BMW e92 sports coupe" would feel the same. Do what I do and at work, sit and get paid overtime while ur actually setting up ur own business

I've seen some drivers put that stupid mustache thing on their dash in their car rather than affixing it the grille.

I dont know one about that, But i do know a website called RelayRide where you can rent your car out to other people. Check it out.

I dont know all the safety aspects of it, but i do know they verify drivers to make sure their record is clean

A desktop engineer with stuck keyboards, problems drifting in traffic and wanting to use his BMW as a taxi to help cover his losses? You sure have a lot on your plate, my friend.

Does not compute. Desktop engineers make decent money... enough to where they wouldn't waste their free time making 15-20$ for an hr of their night.

I'm just looking to do it because I enjoy driving and love the car and I end up driving for no reason, wasting time money and gas, putting miles on the car, so if I do Uber or something similar I'll still be driving, might meet entertaining people and I get to drive.
