However, the site doesn't allow me to select the 86 under "select a specific model." It only lets me select the GR Yaris. This made me think the 86 was sold out and only the Yaris was available. When you made your reservation, do you remember if you selected the overall SP1 category, or the 86 specific model? I'm starting to think of making a reservation in the SP1 category, and then going in to the branch when we land in Tokyo a few days before the pick-up date to see if they're able to confirm an 86.
I reserved SP1 and got the 86. The Yaris would be fun too, I'd be happy with either over a regular car. Don't forget international driver's permit needed.
