    FINALLY...!!!

    On my way to Ferrari of Atlanta, i saw a red 308/328 GTS going West on Georgia 400... When i was leaving FoA, a red 328 GTS pulled in; two minutes later, a silver Mondial coupe pulled in... Later on, i saw the Mondial driving down Main Street... It's about time... Those were my first real Ferrari spots since i moved here...!

    Well, thats the secret. Hang around FoA, and good things will happen. If you want really great things to happen, go down the road to Lambo/Atl!!!!!!!

    i did...! Or at least, i tried... i couldn't find it... Eventually, i gave up and went home... Also, just in case anyone's interested in other cars, i saw an old, white 911 on 285; i saw an older, green 911 on Main Street while i was trying to look for LoA... i also saw a yellow Viper on Main Street in the same area and i saw a white Crossfire on 285, as well... Also, i saw an old car, probably american-made... It was blue and sorta looked like the car from Ghost Busters... i'm not that keen on american cars, so i couldn't tell you the make, much less the model, but it was cool-looking... :)

    NNO,
    7360 Roswell Road, Atl GA 30328. Now you can mapquest it. I will know it is you when I see the Sebring. All you guys should stop by, not too often when you see 5-6 Murcie's and some Gallardos next to a bunch of Ferraris all inside of 5k square feet.

    Yeah, the blue Ghostbusters-type car was pretty cool... i beeped at the guy and gave a thumbs up and he waved... Cars are cool...

    Ok, so where's Roswell Road...? First exit off Georgia 400 North, from where...? From 285...? Get off 285 on to 400 N and then get off the first exit i see...? How easy is it to get to from FoA...? i've NEVER gone out to Roswell, without stopping by FoA - even when they're closed...!


    Thanks, Chris... i'll mapquest it, but from FoA, not from my house or the office... i was really looking forward to coming by and checking out what you folks had on the floor... Was there a Saleen S7 there not too long ago or am i confusing LoA with some place else...? Do you work on Saturdays...? It's not too often that i can shoot down there during the week...

    Last night about 8:00PM-575South bound - saw about 25 Corvettes mostly Z06. Unfortuanatly I was on my X5 so I couldn't keep up with all the action. I saw one red 355 coming from behind really fast and 4-5 of the Z06's did as well. I saw the license plate of the 355. Who else MADTURK. He started to go in and out around the group a few of the Corvettes did try to keep up for a while. From what I saw he left them for dead and never slowed down. MADTURK you SOB. becareful.

    No kidding. A motorcyclist obliterated himself in front if my wife this morning on 85S. She said he passed her moving very quickly, weaving in and out of traffic. Just a minute later and his bike was in pieces and he was surrounded by frantic people making phone calls. Please be careful, save the high speed stuff for the track.

    Don't I wish. I spotted it the other day, not sure who owns it. I'm driving a BMW 525 at the moment, working towards that year-end bonus and a new toy... :)

    I did spot a titanium 360 at the detail place on 14th yesterday morning. Not sure, but I think there was a 550 behind it, but hard to see inside the garage as I drove by.

    Definitely a silver 550 parked in the garage of the detail place on 14th. They had the door wide open this morning. I really want that car!

    Always a good place for spotting, I was passed by a beautiful silver 360 on Peachtree around 1:30pm today, after being passed by both a DB7 Volante and a Bentley Continental.

    The silver 550 is still at the detail place on 14th, hasn't moved in days.

    It's nice to be downtown again.

    It's pretty dry here in Gwinnett County; i saw a white Lotus Esprit on Route 78 a few mornings ago on my way to work; other than actually going to an event, that's the only sports car i've seen in Atlanta in almost a month...

    Anyone here of a car show at Atlanta Motor Speedway in the middle of September...? Supposed to be mostly imports, but apparently, muscle, classic and exotic cars show up, too...

    Hi Carbon,
    The NOPI Nationals are a lot of fun, but definitely for the import crowd. I've been a couple of times.

    Where are you in Gwinnett County? I live just outside of Lawrenceville and make the !@#$@#@! commute to downtown every morning at O-dark thirty. On my way home yesterday I saw a black Lamborghini Diablo headed west on 316 around Riverside. Nice.
