I live in East Cobb between Marietta and Roswell. Drove past the Avenue mall this AM and there was a cool car show in progress. Turns out it is the 1st Saturday of every month and it is called “CAFFEINE & OCTANE”. The location is:
THE AVENUE EAST COBB Shopping Center
4475 ROSWELL ROAD (GA-120), EAST COBB
(JUST EAST OF JOHNSON FERRY ROAD)

SATURDAY,1st of the month
8:30 TO 11:00 AM

The show is free and there is a Panera Bread in walking distance and a Starbucks nearby.

There were lots of American classic hot rods and late model (vettes, etc), a ton of Ferraris and Porsches and motorcycles. Several Lotus, some nice Pantera's, Maserati's, etc.

I actually parked next to a Ferrari and got out to look around and ended up getting some nice looks and comments for my beast! I did not have a camera unfortunatley but I will next time.

I think this would be a cool get together for some of us Atlanta "beast owners"

Would be be really neat to have a bunch of M5's parked in a row....

Thanks for the info. Will have to check it out soon.

Yeah thanks that sounds cool, I'll try to make the next one...good thing it is early since I usually have to be at work at 11 AM on Saturdays, and I guess if it is really cool I could always go in late around noon.

Hey Chris & Kahnh (and all other Atlanta M5 enthusiasts)...want to go to this next time?

Its been a while since our Atlanta group got together.

Unfortunately the next show will be January so it could be cold...

It goes from 8:30 to 11:30. Looks like it will be warmer by then.
If you need to map the location:

The Avenue
4475 Roswell Road (SR 120) Marietta, Georgia 30068

It is near Johnson Ferry Road.

I'll try to stop by before I go to work.

Anyone else coming?
