Ethan Duran
@ethanduran
Ethan Duran is a New York-based entrepreneur who teaches starting an exotic car rental business through his Exotic Car Rental Academy (ECRA) and personal-brand mentoring through DigitalPreneur. His revenue claims are self-reported; a 2024 Miami-Dade lawsuit (Victor Lavant v. Ethan Duran et al) naming him and Exotic Car Rental Academy, LLC remains open. His advertised teaching addresses the business model and operational considerations of car rentals. CourseIQ distinguishes this offer from independently verified student success. Capital requirements, insurance, lease arrangements and local operating rules remain relevant risks for buyers, regardless of the seller’s personal revenue story.
