The big red one in my sig was my junior/senior prom car!!!
You can bet that once I have kids of that age and my Chevelle is restored, they won't get near the wheel before I know that they are competent enough to drive it. And even then, it'll be a long time before I let them take it on their own (if ever).
BTW, the back seat in the Chevelle is big enough to do whatever you want! Plus the front seats recline flat as well, LOL!
Good luck! You'll need it!

jeez, this reminds me that *I* need a mode of transport to prom... May 19th.
Should I get somebody all dressed up and have them chauffeur me in the SSE? No need to pay for a limo this way

Ha! If you were yer dad...would you let you drive your Vette on prom night?!
if the Vette is a result of a mid life crisis break down, I'd be finding another way to get to the prom...lol maybe if you had gotten a scholarship to university...then that might be good leverage
Good luck with the begging

Good luck man, my prom date'* friend'* dad is renting her a limo, so my date and i get to come along, and i dont have to spend a dime.
but if i did have to drive, i would just take my oldsmobile, it'* black on black too, leather interior (just got done cleaning it, and putting on some protectant) it'* a pretty sweet ride, but yeah, a corvette would be fun to drive.
