Atlanta Spotters Thread

Saturday morning, about 11 AM, heading southbound on Johnson Ferry Rd across Roswell Road (East Cobb): a yellow 355 spider.

Anyone we know? Ironically, I was waiting at the light to go eastbound, in my 328.

 

i saw a silver 360 last night here in Savannah as i was driving in... It was in oncoming traffic and although it was dark, the lights looked unique and from what i could see, the car was pretty low... As i went passed me, i heard the exhaust, jerked my eyes to the rearview mirror and saw it fade off into the other direction... It was awesome...

 

I saw the beautiful Bora in traffic coming up Peachtree Industrial last week.

 

Hey Chris,
If it was a copper colored one it was me. . .thanks! I sold the blue Spyder I had at the Tech snow . . . I mean show and bought the 1974 Bora.
Have you done anymore work on the Mustang?

Rick . . . .

 

I drove my 74 365 GT4 BB a week ago down 400. It is red and black. They were shooting photos for a calendar, and the Models and a Makes Magazine. I will post pics when I receive them.

 

Yeah, I remember you telling me at the Dave and Busters show that you sold it.

The mustang is pretty much the same, but it should be sold within the next two weeks. I have a '98 M3 now that I'm kicking around. Its fun, but nothing like a nice classic. How is the Bora in traffic?

 

BTW, a few weeks ago, an Enzo came to the Audi store in atlanta. Met the owner. Seemed like a nice guy.

Here is a short camera phone video of him leaving.

You gotta be sorry to see the Stang go, you put alot of work into it. As far as the Bora in traffic . . . it builds up a very strong left leg but other than that it's not bad at all.

 

Does it count if it is on a trailer?

Yesterday, on my way home from work I saw a red 348 on a flatbed on hwy9 in Cumming. It was missing it's front bumper.

 

Wait, your kidding me! I told you about the Rossa Fiorano 360sp that I saw going through Jennings Mill but now an enzo and F50 in athens. And dang it if I didn't leave there too. At least I go back every two weeks or so. I will see what type of information I can come up with.

 

Saw an orange Gallardo turning off of Piedmont Rd. at about 1:15. Thanks for getting on it after the turn who ever you are, sounded awesome. At the same time there was a silver Viper Coupe coming out of one of the strip clubs. I wonder what he thought about the Lambo.

 

Saw a dark red phantom on jonesbro road in McDonough not to long ago

 

i saw a Ferrari on Friday night...!!! It was awesome...!

It was a yellow 348 ts, in the Stone Mountain/Lilburn area...! It looked like it just came off the highway... i was so stoked to see a Ferrari in my area... It was right by the Target...

Also, about a month or so ago - i don't know if i mentioned this - i saw a black 308 GTS really, really close to my place - in fact, it drove right by...! It was Highway 78 and turned on to some road - i don't remember the name - but it was about 2-3 miles east of the Rte 78/Stone Mountain Freeway...

 

Big sighting day yesterday. Saw a black Gran Sport while I was driving around and a red Murcielago and green Gallardo at Hamilton Place mall in Chattanooga. I'll have pics later this week.

 

Ok, so my wife leaves the house this morning about 0700 to walk the dog - normally takes about 20 minutes or so. She comes back after only 5 minutes and I figure she's forgotten something. She's practically breathless and tells me there's a Ferrari on our street. I'm thinking she wouldn't know a Ferrari from a Lotus (or even an old Opel Kadett), but she insists and says it has tags from Ferrari of Beverly Hills. Now I'm getting interested....so I leave a few minutes later to take my daughter to school and damn ! there's a brand new, untagged, rossa corsa 430 sitting out on the street just a few doors down from where I live in Dunwoody - not even in the driveway.

Relatively new neighbors, I'll have to get to know them....

If it's anyone here by any chance - congratulations, it's gorgeous.

 

Very nice!

I bet you were proud of your wife huh?

I know I am always excited when my wife can tell a difference between a Ferrari and some other sports car.

 

There was a red 355 Spider with a black top (up) on Old Milton Pkwy (GA 400 exit 10) just after 5pm this evening (Dec 24th). I hope he/she got home quickly because the sky opened up a few minutes later to dump the rain...

It might be the same 355 I've seen on my way to work on GA 400 SB on a couple of mornings. The driver was a distinguished looking gentleman with salt and pepper hair. Anyone on the board perhaps?

Nice looking spider. If the owner is reading this, I'm the gent in the white Chevy Silverado peering down to catch a glimpse.

Also, some other non-Ferrari spots recently have been a silver Maser coupe and an Aston Martin Vantage -- both on GA 400 SB in the A.M. The Aston I was surprised to see on the morning it was REALLLY icy and GA DOT closed the Spagetti Junction and some other routes and were salting some roads. I didn't want to take my truck on the salt/sand much less an Aston!! Good grief.

 

Yesterday while out in my BB512i for a drive I saw a red F430 get off Ga400 North at exit 16...I could tell it had an F1 shifter because I could hear the clutch slipping while it was pulling forward at the traffic light...was that a fellow FChatter?

 

my cousin spotted this and sent me the picture. Anyone here ? he lives very close to FOA

If he lives close to FOA then it could be a test drive.

 

Hey, Alex, have you got a firm date yet for the Centennial High car show?

 

Not yet, I'm working on getting the teacher to spit out a date to work around Prom. i found out when the girlfriend's prom is so i dont have to worry about that. I'm trying, believe me...

 

Not a F Car, but saw a white w/ blue stripe Ford GT across the street from work here in Chattanooga. I'll try and post some pics of it.
