Meet Edgar
Natolo.

Edgar Natolo loved cars long before he began saving for a supercar. His first was a green Nissan Pulsar hatchback that cost about $500. “It was ugly, but I loved it,” he remembers. It is a fitting starting point for the founder of Supercar Community: an enthusiasm that stretches from an inexpensive first hatchback to the Porsche he would eventually travel interstate to buy.

Born in Melbourne to Argentine parents, Edgar spent parts of his childhood in the United States, Canada, New South Wales and Queensland. Moving around encouraged his curiosity and willingness to talk to people. He liked asking successful people how they had done it, learning from their experience rather than trying to work everything out himself.

His own car stories come with plenty of detail. There was the yellow Commodore his parents provided, and a burgundy Celica with pop-up headlights, the one he could afford. He added a surfing sticker reading “Turbo” to the rear, something he now admits would not have fooled anyone who knew cars. A black, Japanese-import Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo brought a very different experience, including a test drive around the Jacobs Well cane fields and, later, engine troubles.

Other chapters include a blue Audi TT Quattro and an Indy Pearl Yellow Honda S2000. He also owned a silver Ford Capri convertible, a car he loved, around 2001, he recalls. After an accident in the Honda, Edgar moved into a Volkswagen Golf and concentrated on driving slowly and safely. There was also a black BMW 120i convertible, bought sight unseen from Melbourne for about $19,000, that became part of a turning point well beyond cars.

That BMW was what Edgar drove to a Glenn Twiddle real estate event. He had gone to learn, sitting shyly towards the back. As the audience was asked about listing numbers, he kept his hand raised. Between Edgar and his assistant, Clint, they had 64 listings in their Ormeau patch. That answer prompted an invitation to speak, eventually leading to speaking engagements around Australia.

Around that moment, Edgar set himself a supercar goal, separate from his property and investing goals. He wanted to pay cash, without borrowing, and recalls saving towards it for about ten years.

The Porsche he eventually bought caught his attention on My Kitchen Rules, where he saw Gianni and Zana’s car. He remembers spotting it on Carsales a month or two after the show finished. Edgar flew to Melbourne, met the couple and bought it without negotiating the price. They became friends.

Alongside cars, Edgar has enjoyed sharing what he learns. His social media experiments became opportunities to explain what worked and what did not, and he shared practical methods and simple systems with other businesses, often without charging.

The $500 Pulsar, the Celica’s optimistic sticker and the long-planned Porsche purchase all belong in his story. For Edgar, working towards a goal and enjoying the journey have become part of the same outlook. It is the personal history he brings to Supercar Community, with plenty of cars, conversations and lessons along the way.

Edgar is also known for his Supercar BBQ video, which has reached more than 65 million views worldwide.
