    Hey guys:
    just posting that we'll be starting a new invite only Saturday AM Ferrari car gathering in buckhead. Corso Coffee and Buckhead Atlanta are sponsoring us. So I hope to be able to open it to all Ferrari Owners / FChat folks soon, but until we get the logistics worked out we;re going to open it to the first 18 FCA members. I should have invite emails out by the weekend.

    This is an event for the girls too!!! from time to time ( assuming it works and is popular ) the Buckhead Atlanta boutiques will offer the group specials ( Hermes, Dolci & Gabana, Toidds, Southern Gentleman, Corso, etc... ) Meanwhile bring your car, your girl and lets have a latte and talk Ferrari in style!

    If I dont get the slots filled with FCA then I'll open it to FChat folks - but its Ferrari only cars. Ofcourse its open to all for viewing no cost etc...

    Mroe to come so watch this space soon!

    FYI:

    Corso Coffee is located in the new Buckhead Atlanta development right off Peachtree and West / East Paces Ferry road. its the new mixed use high end development.

    thats the same day as the Kinetic tour. Kinetic tour should conclude around 11 so that will be plenty O time for the Ferrari only event in Buckhead.

    The folks at Buckhead Atlanta are only able to park 18 cars, so its first come first serve. but to park in the area you have to have your Ferrari with you. Its pay as you go for the coffee, but it's a cool way to gather.. hope to see ya'll!

    I think Will is bringing something fun from the dealership too!

    Now that I've got the 328 back from its winter servicing, I'd love to come, but I have a prior commitment - the biggest plastic model show in the Atlanta area this year:

    Welcome to the IPMS-Atlanta Model Club - www.ipms-atlanta.org

    And I think that on the same weekend in April, I'll be down in FL visiting my dad, who turns 96 in 3 weeks. Maybe in May?

    ONLY 5 Slots left open. so if you have not RSVP'd from the FCA invite let me know ASAP via pvt message here.

    My goal is to make this monthly - and grow it into a real Ferrari concours event with a big show every year.

    The property owners are 100% behind it so the more participation we get - the more they will do to help grow it.

    we have some wild ideas, but have to crawl & walk before we run. THANKS ALL!!!!

    BTW - Corso has some great coffee... if you close your eyes while drinking an espresso, its like being in italy... its that good!!!

    Here is a shot of the first 6 cars! I think there was a total of 15 cars. Although it looked overcast, the Sun made an appearance soon after this cell phone pic was taken. Perfect day/perfect event, great people and excellent Coffee!
