A PIT Autobacs Shinonome, driving simulator on the 3rd floor

Apit Autobacs Shinonome Main Building 3rd Floor

By the way, let's go to "A PIT AUTOBACS SHINONOME", which is the new Super AUTOBACS Shinonome, on the 3rd floor of the main building.

Again, the building itself hasn't changed, so if you're familiar with AUTOBACS before, it's a space where only the upper part of the edge of the 2nd floor is on the 3rd floor.

When I go up to the 3rd floor, it looks like this. Oh, this is also a space designed based on white, black, and gray, so it has a "calm and fashionable" atmosphere.

The uniforms of the clerk have also changed to gray and chic, so the image will change ... but the clerk's "contents" will not change, so "Oh, that person, who was from the front." I also realized that only the uniforms have changed (laughs).

A corner where you can try many car seats

On the 3rd floor, car seats were displayed, and there was also a corner where you could actually sit and try it. There was before, but there are more types to try, and it feels spacious. Looking only here reminds me of the Tokyo Auto Salon ^^

Beyond these sheets ... there is a small room surrounded by glass. I'll get closer ...

You can also use a driving simulator (charged)

Oh oh. This is the driving simulator room! I heard that there is only one in such an isolated space. The seats seemed to move.

This simulator is not free, it costs 1,000 yen for 10 minutes or 2,500 yen for 30 minutes. There were many people running on this day as well. It may be nice to have a little fun when you stop by AUTOBACS.

It is absolutely impossible for me to run a simulator in such a situation where everyone can see my running (laughs).

It seems that there are quite a few types of cars that can be driven (about 250 models, about 200 courses). For the time being, it looks like this in Porsche (I'm sorry it's hard to see. If you can understand it somehow).

Besides, a part of Ferrari, Lamborghini ...

Of course, there were many options for domestic cars and cars from other overseas manufacturers. I think most people can find a car that they want to drive with.

Car navigation and car audio corners are also available

Next, there is a screen that you can attach to the back seat and a car navigation corner.

Furthermore, there is also a car audio corner. Here, each manufacturer has a small booth (seat), and two Recaro seats that are quite comfortable to sit on are lined up, so that you can reproduce the situation where you are in the car and listening to music. ..

There was even a table that could be pulled out, so you could relax and enjoy the car audio while drinking Starbucks. It's pretty good. This calms down. I want this booth at home (laughs). There is no point in sitting on this Recaro seat, listening to music in the car environment, and the space of this two-seater (although there is no wall), a little narrowness is comfortable.

Also, of course, there were circuit-related goods on sale, suspensions, mufflers, and a counter where you could consult about various things.

Speaking of hobby goods ... It has been the case since before, but anyway, there are few "Porsche related" goods at this store (tears). This was as usual. Porsche goods are in the center of the photo below. There are really a few key chains and so on.

Further down is Ferrari goods and a little Lamborghini goods on the far right. This assortment seems to be the same as the previous Super AUTOBACS Shinonome, so it seems that there was no change in this area.

The last thing I was interested in was the BMW emblem corner. Is this emblem really usable as an emblem on the front of the car? !! Is it? !! It's cheap!

No, actually I am. A long time ago, when I was still single, I took the BMW 318is I was riding to a car wash and washed it ... The water that came out vigorously hit the front emblem, and Parin! I once skipped the BMW emblem (laughs).

It seems that he immediately called the dealer and asked him to put it on for about 5,000 yen.

Well, it didn't matter ... I mean, when I think about it like this, I've been washing my car myself since I was single, I (laughs). I remember that everyone laughed at me when it became known that I had washed the BMW emblem.

Then, I will continue to the pits on the 1st floor of the main building ~ ^^
