Default OK....Raleigh/Durham peeps...Looking into my new possible environs...Couple of questions:

First: Audi Dealers...Any good ones in the area?
2nd: Nice neighborhoods/areas to look for houses to
Rent/Buy?
3rd: Any good tuner shops?

I'll do search too and see what I can find.

TIA :-D

Bill: I will drop you a line as (if) the time approaches for more in depth info about the area.
Thanks. :-)

Email Bill on the housing/dealer issue....He was pretty happy with his last experiences at Leigth(?) Marcus has tracked down some tuners I think, when he's not out here at the Modshack! I'm only 80 miles east of there and I do mods for Beer! C'mon down.

Can't help with dealers or tuners, but as far as neighborhoods go ... Durham (as opposed to Raleigh or Chapel Hill) gets a bad rap. There are some really nice and affordable neighborhoods there, especially near the Duke Forest and down by the South Square mall (I think that's where Bill lives).

I'd stay away from Cary and the other Raleigh 'burbs. These are known as the "Yankee Containment Zone" and lack character. That's just my opinion, of course.

When are you moving down there?

Default And another thing for Raleigh/Durham peeps, since you'll be looking here...

The World Beer Festival will be held in Durham (at the old ballpark) on September 21st. I will be coming down for it. Mark your calendars -- this is one of the best events you can possibly imagine and it's right in your neighborhood!<ul><li><a href="http://www.allaboutbeer.com/wbf2002/">http://www.allaboutbeer.com/wbf2002/</a</li></ul>
