At the time of writing, the following 15 car models appear to be available.
Prices range from 44,000 yen to 104,500 yen for a 90-minute private lesson, depending on the car model. When making the reservation, we had a hard time deciding which type of car to choose, but since both my wife and I have experienced the performance of the 911 and Boxster in driving school many times, we decided to book the "Rear Wheel Drive vs. 4 Wheel Drive" program for me and the "Mid vs. Rear" program for my wife.
The two programs are, respectively, a program to understand the difference between drive formats with two 911 Carrera S and Carrera 4 cars, and a program to understand the difference between midship and rear engine with a 718 Boxster GTS 4.0 and a 911 Carrera.
Reservations themselves are very simple. After registering, users select the date, time, and type of car, and then pay with a credit card.
From here on out, you put the program in your cart, pay with a credit card, and you're done.
At the time of writing the blog, Saturdays were reasonably full, but there were still many openings on weekdays, so those interested should try to make a reservation.
