Procuring Automobiles?

I highly recommend the "conversion" process:

Note: You must score 90% or higher on your written exam, and the English is SO bad, that you will miss questions because they're mis-asked, for lack of a better word. Tripple negatives, poor article usage, etc. It's all there. The Japanese test is equally tricky, but with proper grammar, and with a lot of vocabulary you won't know if you've never driven in Japan.

The driving test you'll probably have to take a couple of times... they rarely let people pass the first time. Even stricter for motorcycles.
 
hahahaha! my bad! i left out that i remember reading somewhere that to buy an auto in Japan, one needs to have a driver's license + insurance.
can't remember where, but it's out there if people want to look (i may look and link later0
 
Are you talking about car rental? Buying a car, driving while you're here then selling/abondoning before you leave? One to buy and send home? Many to buy and ship?
 
I don't think tourists can own cars... but you can rent one if you have an international driver's license, they are available from AAA.

I guess none of the above.

So I would then recommend taking a train out of the city to a residential neighborhood. The distance from the city is in direct proportion to the liklihood of the door being unlocked and the keys being left in the ignition.
