- The exhibition space and the negotiation room are separated by glass, but are seamlessly connected, and the exhibited vehicles can be viewed from the negotiation room, so visitors are always aware of the exhibited vehicles. However, the lighting in the negotiation room is set low to ensure privacy. There is also another negotiation room separate from this one, which can be used depending on the situation.
