one further point
You wouldn't have to take public transpo to get to a rent-a-car place. There are a fair number of places in Manhattan where rental car companies have small offices and you could reserve a car.
However, having been to C'town once and enjoyed it, I would say- wait for another opportunity as it is a long way from anywhere, and there is so much to see and do in NYC.
BTW, +++++ on the High Line, it is fantastic. Also, it is basically adjacent to the Chelsea Market, which is a fabulous old factory bldg. turned into sensational eating and shopping - the seafood market and restaurant in there is well worth doing esp. if, like me, you are starved for seafood in the midwest. (I think the offices of mlb.com are in that bldg too, though I am not absolutely sure.)
Have fun,
Tim
