Wanted to rent a family car, but the windows were big and my children were so happy to be able to see the ocean view from their seats. Nice car!
2016/11 Roadster(MX-5) New model
You have to ride with the top down in this Okinawan weather. I just rode the North side of the area as much as my heart desired, and loved how freeing it was.

I didn't know Lexus makes convertible cars, so I wanted to drive it as soon as I saw one of them. The price was not that cheap, but I could afford it. I was upset that I couldn't open the cover because of a typhoon. It was very comfortable. It made me feel good to feel the ocean breeze. Being able to see the entire sky made the experience much better.

Because it was a convertible car. I couldn't take the top down on one of the days I was there. Loved the sense of freedom and the sound of the engine.

Because it is a very popular sports car, and it is hard to get a manual car nowadays. I went to Churaumi. You can enjoy an extraordinary experience.

I love the car, and I always wanted to drive one. It was a perfect convertible car for the weather in Okinawa. I drove Soarer to the Alivila Hotel where I would stay for two nights and three days. I drove around Yomitanson area, enjoyed sight-seeing and scuba diving. I then drove around Onnason and came back home on the freeway. The hotel had valet parking service that was perfect for the convertible car. If the weather is good, the convertible is the best rental to have. It was not too hot, not too cold, was perfect weather this trip.

Rented as we had to go to 2-3 shops to buy some big items, as well as go sightseeing with my wife (I thought taking the bus would be too much of a hassle as it has a time schedule). It was cheap too. We now live in the States, and wanted to vacation in Okinawa, so this was our chance to as we got a few days off. My wife and daughter went ahead to Okinawa so it was great that they introduced me to some of the things that they recommend. This trip was in the winter, but I'm sure that a convertible in the summer, even with the heat, is really nice too.

On the day I was suppose to pick up my car, I found out a Toyota Vellfire was available. I decided to change to this car instead of my original. I was so thrilled to drive the car because I have been waiting for the opportunity to drive one. I went to Oujima Island in Nanjo to enjoy the cruise on a boat with a glass floor. It was funny to see a cat resting under the shadow of my rental car to get away from the blazing hot sun. I was ten minutes late to return the car, but I am very thankful they did not make a big deal about it.(^^). Convertible cars are a man's dream car and romance.

I think driving a manual convertible is great in the Okinawan winter, as you can really let the wind hit your face. Okinawa has especially great roads on the outskirts of the cities, and this car lets you talk to the other passengers, whereas motorcycles would require helmets and prevent you from having conversations. This car is great for a conversational starter piece as you can share your experience in the car, and would be a great investment for business; although, I do think that the more cool cars there are, the more customers may flock to this service.

Because the Roadster was not available. It was the Obon season, and this was my first time attending. Being able to feel the wind blow on me.
2016/02 Roadster(MX-5) New model
I wanted to drive a manual car which is very hard to find nowadays even with convertible cars. There is a possibility I could be buying a Roadster in the near future, so a part of the reason for this rental was a test drive. It was exciting to drive over Kouri Bridge under the beautiful blue sky. I loved the blue sky and the sunset, and I felt like I was a big part of nature.
2016/02 Roadster(MX-5)
Looked like it was fun to drive. It started raining while I was driving with the top down, so I had to close it as fast as I could. I could feel the wind.
2015/11 Roadster(MX-5) New model
I wanted to drive a brand new car. I drove with the top down from Churaumi Aquarium to the end of Kouri Bridge. It was an awesome view. To be able to feel the wind.
2015/10 Roadster(MX-5) New model AT
I was interested in the car because it was very popular among the people who love cars. The temperature on that day in Okinawa was 30C°, so I ended up closing the cover and started using the air conditioner. I had to keep the cover closed 2/3rd's of the time. I rented a convertible car so I can enjoy the top being down, and the weather forced me to cut my enjoyment in half. The feeling of exhilaration as the wind blows on your face. The freedom you feel without the top down. You can take pictures or enjoy the views without getting out of the car.
2015/08 Roadster(MX-5) New model
I have always wanted to drive one at least once. It was awesome driving on winding roads in Yanbaru Forest, but it felt like just a regular car on the freeways. I think it is better to upgrade to a turbo or 2000cc with the oversea specifications. The adrenaline rush you get from the speed.
2016/05 Vellfire(2015-)
Big enough for a few adults. It was interesting to see new food that I had never seen before. It was great to have a spacious feeling. Neutral,
2016/12 Roadster(MX-5)
I like convertibles, so I rented one and drove around Nikijin with the top down. The sky felt so close and it was super nice.
2016/11 Voxy
I was in a pickle as my car is a Serena, and we need space for 3 car seats, as well as seats for 2 more people, but renting cars is usually super expensive. That was when I found this rental service. It was my first time going to Bisezaki in November, but it was so much fun, and I got to show my kids so many different types of fish. I haven't rented a convertible, but I imagine in this weather, it is amazing! Although, it definitely won't seat 5 people lol
2015/09 Roadster(MX-5)
Rented this car because I wanted to enjoy the Okinawan air in a convertible. There was a bit of trouble using this service, but was relieved because they have such swift and reliable service. My wife also really enjoyed the ride as it was her first ride in a sports car. Super freeing and loved feeling the wind as we drove.
2016/03 Mini Cooper Convertible
I was planning on renting a Roadster, but they were not available, and I ended up renting a MINI. I got sun burned pretty bad because I had the top down the entire time, and it hurt me so bad. It felt so good with being in such an open space.
2014/09 Roadster(MX-5) Soft Top
I wanted to feel special and to try driving a convertible car. I tried to put my suitcase in the trunk as soon as I arrived, but it did not fit. I felt a little awkward because I ended up putting my suitcase on the passenger seat, but as soon as I saw the perfect starry sky with the cover open, I forgot all about the suitcase problem. Amazing feeling of freedom. The Roadster I rented from Speed Rent A Car was tuned-up a little bit, so I could enjoy it more.
2013/09 Roadster(MX-5)
I chose to drive a Porsche Mission. No comments. The engine was loud and loved it.
2016/07 New Beetle Cabriolet
I wanted to drive a convertible. Felt good with the wind.
2016/12 S660
I love convertibles, and wanted to ride one. I even hit it up with a guy that was driving a Porsche Boxster when we parked next to each other in a coast-side parking lot. Loved feeling the Okinawan sun and breeze as I was driving.
2015/06 Roadster(MX-5)
I wanted to drive a hard-top convertible in Okinawa. I was surprised that I was able to have conversations while I was driving on a freeway. The feeling of the freedom.
2016/11 Roadster(MX-5)
Rented this car to test drive one before buying anything. Unfortunately, the weather was bad so I couldn't enjoy any blue skies or oceans, but the drive to the aquarium was splendid. I loved being one with nature and driving.
2016/12 Roadster(MX-5)
I tried this car because I was contemplating switching from the Z4 to the RS, and to see how good it is (The RS is definitely for day to day errands, whereas the Z4 has better stability on the highway). We headed to a famous burger shop in Nago, but gave up as there were too many people. We tried again on our way back from Churaumi Aquarium, but they had sold out, so that was a bummer. This car really lets you feel the wind and the seasonal aroma, but surprisingly, not the best fit for driving fast. Safety first.

2016/03 Porsche Boxster
I think I would never buy this car, but I wanted to try driving it. It was the first time vacationing with my son, and it was harder for my old body to keep up with all the scuba diving and snorkeling we did. It was a great feeling to be in Okinawa. It is not too hot, nor too cold, and the sun was not overwhelming. I could only bring the top down between rain storms, but I enjoyed it.

No opinion. Just chose this car because it was available.
