    My company is talking to me about an opportunity in Atlanta. Just curious to know what the Atlanta Ferrari community looks like? Does anyone have any info?

    Thanks

    I was going to wait to see if anyone actually from the greater Atlanta area replied, but here is what I know.

    All the parties mentioned here seem to be in Atlanta.

    Most of the people that post here are seem to be from Atlanta.

    There is Ferrari of Atlanta, Roebling Road, and Road Atlanta.

    With all this in mind, I would say that the Ferrari scene in Atlanta is alive and kicking.

    Ken,
    Take the bait and come on up, the weather is almost as good as Florida and we can go for a ride in my Euro 308.

    Ken, I love Atlanta. There is lots to do up here. Come on up! The weather is nice most of the time! Like the past 3 days have been absolutely perfect Ferrari weather, 68-72 degrees and no rain. I had the 308 out the past 3 days!

    I'll know more in a couple of weeks, but I'd give it a 90% that it is going to happen. In south Florida there is a great Ferrari following for track and social events. I wasn't sure if that was the case in Atlanta or if I was spoiled? Some great guys here and I was hoping to be able to meet some new friends/families in the hobby in Atlanta. When I move I figure I could also take advantage of the inside help. Our office is in Norcross so I guess I'll be relative to the area.

    I'm interested for a different reason. I've lived here for seven years, but in my case the Ferrari is what will be new!

    I'll be coming to Norcross next Thursday for a meeting. I've still to set the trip up, looks like this might be one day in and out. If not maybe I can contact some of you locals.

    You may be able to shop for that windshield while you are near Rutlands. It's a great place to visit(Rutlands).

    Looks like it is a 1 day in and 1 day out next week. Thursday flight in at 10:00, go to Norcross, lunch with corp guys, flight leaves at 5:45. Not much time this trip, but looks like things will be moving fast from this point and I'll be making permanent arrangements to move.

    My windshield isn't bad enough to warrant a $2K repair, just not as 'perfect' as I wish. But it will be nice to be near Rutlands. I have purchased there before and will make it one of my places to see.

    I have a friend that MIGHT be able to hook you up with the windshield for much less.
