Super cool! Not sure I would have gone to the dance though. But rather drive around all night in a cool car with the top down. Doesn't get much better than that.

No pressure on your son driving an elegant date in a perfect prom night vehicle.
Does not get better than that... the night to remember.

I went to Prom night twice and I was no longer even in school at the time. Once with a former girlfriend and a year earlier with her best friend. I think I might of been driving a beat up pick up truck.. :-[ :(
