My be jumping ship to another boat
I was made an offer I don't think I can refuse. A move from employer to employee may be imminent.

Still automotive? Any port in a storm these days. Good luck whichever way you go.

Aw gee Terry I was really rooting for you given that you started from scratch. Was very encouraging seeing your posts as your business appeared to grow.

Good luck! I've been watching your venture since you started. I have a lot of experience in the auto industry, including doing what you were doing. I have to admit, you lasted longer than I expected. It was a pretty good business 10 years ago, but in the past few years the margins have shrunk to almost nothing, people have had to work harder to make a lot less, most car enthusiasts find it gets boring after a while, and almost everyone who tries it quits after a year or two.
What's the new gig! |

Still in the auto biz, it will be super high end stuff if works out. Look for me in a Enzo shortly.
I'll catch everyone up to speed "if" it goes through. |

Is it renting supercars?
friend of a friend in NYC started a company doing that about 5-6 years ago IIRC. I think he's raking in huge $ these days. of course it helps if your dad can supply you with the first couple of Ferrari's, Lamborghini's, etc. good luck. nothing like owning/growing your own company, but a steady paycheck sure is nice too.
