Is it automatic or manual. I drove my 228 for almost a year before I had it tuned.

I have a 238/242 605/610 My fiance drove that 120 miles to get it tuned for cause I had work. If my prissy *** fiance can drive a big cammed m6 car 120 miles for a tune I think youll be ok

your not going to hurt the car really, not if your only driving it 150 miles. whats going to suck is keeping it running at stop lights and stuff. hopefully its an M6 which will make it a little easier.
