My 17 year old son just asked to take my car to prom

coolvans1988 · 04-17-2014, 03:25 PM

My dad didn't let me use his car for my prom. Ended up getting a Limo with the
buddies instead. Ended up to be better. More of the experience i'd say.

My old man let me take his 04' 350z Nismo on prom night. It made me a smart man and I learned control, and not to speed because of fear of getting pulled over. I ditched my date after dinner, and took off with the car for a 200-roundtrip drive. 5 years later, I got my 370z

I took my '84 Dodge Aries K-car with all it's red pleather seating glory to my prom. Bitches love pleather.

Put a GPS in the car so you'll know where its at, at all times. lol

My brother asked if he could take my 370z also. I did not hesitate to say yes. He will take it to prom and bring it right back after prom. He will then take his own car to the after party or whatever him and his friends will be doing that night. You have nothing to worry about. I was just there 4 years ago. It was an amazing night as long as you are responsible about it.

This is a good suggestion. Let him take the Z to the prom, then come home and take his Altima to any after parties he attends.

He sounds like a great kid. He'll remember this forever. Good job, Dad!

What an awesome dad, I hope to have the same faith in my son when I become a dad one day.

Btw I graduated from fgcu in '12, 370's are pretty common on campus, even a couple of gtr's for students cars so the car won't be a hyper exotic on that campus.

Anyways, the rev limiter was a smart idea - high testosterone level coupled with developing frontal cortex will beat common sense 10 out of 10 times.

No way I would let my daughter or son take my Z to the prom.

Man you are a good dad. I begged my mom for months to let me take her GT-R to prom when I was 17, and she told me hell no.
