It was actually the bride who insisted on the cars. Her Dad offered to find 3 old school Falcons, but she said she wanted 3 blue B-series cars, but that they had to be loud.
James - the owner of the Blueprint XR8, got told at the reception that it was lucky he could find "three XR8s" for the day.
It was pointed out that mine was a 6, and the surprised reply came back that it sounded just as tough as the 8's.
I even had a few of the guests come up to me and say they thought it was great that a girl had a car that could run with the boys.
There was some ''musical cars'' going on with the bridal party between the photo venues - purely because James wanted a ride in my car.
He was impressed with how well it kept up to his car in front (only carrying the bride and groom), when I had 4 passengers.
A long time family friend was driving his car, (as James was a groomsman) knowing that he was in the car behind, and therefore unable to do anything but watch, he was pushing it a fair bit.
