    Awesome - Austin,TX!
    Full Name:
    JJ
    I'm new to this forum, I'm a long time Enthusiast of Ferrari and have much respect for it!

    For those here in the Austin Area that like to look at and admire these beautiful Cars, and others that come close to the same style...(i.e. Aston, Bentley, Rolls Royce, etc)

    There is a New ish place up North off of 183 and they have a showroom with several AWESOME Cars inside, I would put the name of the place up here, but I don't want to get banned or anytthing like that...

    I have worked with (in a round about way) many of these vehicles over the years, and have always wanted one....maybe someday!

    I have seen a few Newer Ferraris around here over the past few months, I didn't realize there were that many around.

    I live close to the Audi Dealership, and I have seen several of the New R8s and they're cool, but there is nothing like a FERRARI!

    Anyhow, nice to meet y'all and I like the forum!

    Welcome!
    I don't think you would get banned for posting that information...

    The Aston Martin dealership? Bentley of Austin? You won't get banned unless you are an employee of the shop, trying to get free advertising.

    Hey there....

    I appreciate the welcome from y'all. I just live off of McNeil and 183, and I like the area....

    The place that I'm talking about, is fairly new (well, the building is anyway) but I was doing some work right next to it about a month ago, and thats when they were bringing some cars in....I was just WOW!

    The place is called John Eagle European and they are off of 183, just north of McNeil.

    I went by there the other day to drop off a business card and flyer, and they have 4 NEW Astons, and Several high end vehicles, you just don't normally see a place have this many high $$ vehicles in one location...unless it's a car show or gathering of some type!

    One of my customers has about a dozen cars, ranging from a Hummer, Audi, Lotus, New Ferrari, New Aston, and crap I don't know them all, but he's not married and doesn't have any children....and has a crap load of vehicles!

    Thanks!

    Yeah, that's the Bentley/Aston Martin dealership.

    Welcome to the site. As far as Austin cars go, we have over 100 Ferraris in town and a bunch of other exotics. You just have to know where to look. ;) Be careful with the detailing stuff on this site or you could be banned. But please do tell me - what kind of detailing do you do? All hand detailing or do you use a machine? If you use a polisher, what kind? How long have you been detailing cars? Bonded or insured? I know of a couple of people looking for a good detailer. My friend that details cars has his hands full and can't take on any new clients right now.

    I appreciate the greetings.....

    I've seen many over the years (ferraris) here in Austin, and I'm sure the ones I have seen mulitple times, in my mind I thought they were new ones roaming around. I'm actually starting to see more and more Exotics in my line of work.....speaking of, as much as I would like to talk about what I do, I don't want to get banned, especially since I just joined!

    If there is another way to communicate with you without that possibility, let me know.

    After I chose my screen name, I thought...crap...I hope this doesn't get me in trouble, because I'm not here to advertise......

    I just did some research on that place, and y'all are right, it's the Aston Dealership, I didn't even know one exisited here in Austin......but then again I can't keep up with everything!

    There is another place that has some decent looking used cars, Ferraris, a Lambo, and several others.... it's called Elite Motorsports and they're off of Anderson mill.....

    Yes, SW (owner of Elite) is a friend of mine and a fellow FChatter.

    You can send me a PM if you want to talk about the detailing. If you are new to forums, just click on "contact info" in my profile.

    Good to know that they're now open, I've been lost in anticipation... :cool:

    I never realized that a pre-owned DB9 was @ such a price-point! This '05 DB9 w/ ~27k miles is far less than 1/2 of it's original MSRP! :eek:

    Low-mileage (relatively speaking) '06 V8-Vantage's can be acquired for low-to-mid $60k's, the aforementioned DB9 is not too far beyond that! :D

    Welcome to the forum Justin. I live in your general area so you may see my red TR from time to time at the Audi Store. My A8 is there this week for service. I too just noticed the new Aston Martin dealership this week. I've got to stop by Sail & Ski to pick up some boat parts this afternoon (thanks to the recent hail storm) and I think I'll stop by to see the new dealership while I am that close by. Let us know what sort of detailing work you do.
    Thanks,
    Kelly
