    Hey All! Heath here. Graduated from UF Architecture '05 and now I'm moving to Atlanta in July to start grad school at GT. I'm active on NASIOC and Saab92x.com and was told about your forum and that you guys were cool! I've got a bunch of friends here in Orlando, but unfortunately don't really know anyone in ATL. I'll be at the Plaza Midtown on W.Peachtree. Looking forward to the move! :)

    I've got a black 2005 Saab 9-2x with a 2.0T, TBE, Cobb stage 2, 15% tint, euro-tinted taillights, Momo shift knob and Grid mats, and Eibach springs waiting to be installed. I'm hoping to get an UP and a protune (?seigel racing?) after I move up there!

    about half of the active members go to GT, including the admins. During the summer there are usually weekly meets, then again that is the only time that I am usually around so I wouldnt know about most of the time.

    Welcome to wrxatl

    Welcome to the community! Did you see my post on saab92x ?

    We have a dinner meet generally once a month (on the 3rd thursday), in addition to at least one major event a month. There is always something small going on weekly though :D

    alright, another saab!

    I'll have to find out from you GT guys where the best places to go are, bars/clubs/restaurants/etc.

    as for the roof rails... thanks but no thanks

    No hard feelings, I'm cheap and refuse to pay for them but if I can find some for an even trade I'll do it.

    Once you get in town we'll show you around. :beer::beer::beer:

    Ya we talked about it pretty much the whole time we were waiting for the drift exhibition to begin. Whatever it doesn't matter. Maybe if you guys take the new guy out I'll come and actually hang out for once. Maybe, as long as I don't get infected with WRX.

    Don't know where Lindbergh is, but I'll be across the street from the Marta on Peachtree Place/7th St. I'll get much more familiar with the city when I move there in July.

    Not sure exactly where the Lindbergh Marta Station is, but I think I am very close to you.
