"A drama about a woman who changes her career and eventually becomes a president of a car sales company in a male-oriented society of the 1970's. Makino Hisako quits her job at a leading textile company before turning 25, which is considered the retirement age for women at that time, and starts working as a car salesman. The drama depicts her success story along with her high school classmates, the baby-boom generation." --NHK

The car company in the show is a fictional "Omiyake Motors". The show is broadcasted in Japan's government-funded NHK channel. There are eight episodes filmed. These pictures are all from the first episode. No IMBD listing yet.

 Sounds interesting. Is Omiyake Motors a dealer or a manufacturer?

 Manufacturer, I think. Almost every car seem to have a fictional model name and some have Mazda badges (eg.Corolla).

If someone knows about torrents and stuff like that I can give you a link where to download the first episode.

 The motorvehicle manufacturing company that goes out to the story is not "Omiyake Motors" but "Miyake cars".

It is a setting whose female hero's Hisako Makino is a dealer of the "Miyake cars" to work for "Miyake-Motors-Jyohonan".
Then, the relation to the man who has proceeded to the dealer from the "Miyake car" is woven to the story.

There is a person of real existence that acted as a model though this story is a fiction.
It worked for the dealer of the Honda car by the person "Hayashi Fumiko" and put high-ranking sales results.
Afterwards, it endeavored as it changed one's job to a Japanese agency of BMWs, it became the first general manager in the woman in this company, and the shop where sales results were sluggish was made a top result.
It became BMWs dealer's president at later years.
It is a mayor in Yokohama City in 2009 through twist and turn.

The company that became the model of the "Miyake car" looks from the setting of having made the airplane while fighting like Nissan Motor Co. (Prince car) or Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd., etc.
However, this setting only seems to use because it was necessary for characters' careers, and not to be especially specification of which company as the model.
