Well, we would drive in it from the venue of our ceremony to where our dinner reception would be, and then drive it back to the location of our ceremony for a bit of partying, and then drive from there to where we would be staying the night. Only thing is, it's not a remotely stealth vehicle for latenight...the exhaust and everything else is quite loud, so I'd have to shift early (like 3000 rpm or less) to keep the general roar a bit lower.
I think I will do it...he's basically gonna let me have the car for a week for $100. Only catch is, I need to use 91 or higher octane (he uses 91 usually) to keep the computer and turbo happy. I don't even know what kind of horsepower ot torque the car makes...I don't think it's stock, and it feels like you are driving a 5.0L Foxbody Mustang, just with a smaller turbo'ed powerplant, and better traction...
If I didn't have my Silverado as a project vehicle, I'd actually entertain buying a Skyline myself (yes, I know this is in direct contradiction to my signature, but to me, that's a REAL Japanese car...unlike a corolla or something as equally boring).
