I'd suggest you ship the car from Manila to Cebu. Parang RoRo din naman ang proceedure. Nothing wrong with Sulpicio, wala namang bagyo eh plus may insurance naman.

So what you can do is to drive up to the pier (try SuperFerry at the South Harbor near Manila Hotel), then take your flight the next day then upon reaching Cebu, take a cab to the pier and pick up your car.
