BCspeed34 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 A buddy of mine and I are planning on taking a road trip from Paris to Milan this summer. Late August to early September for 2 weeks. Thought I'd take some opinions from some other members on some nice places to see or stay at. I'd like to visit the Nurburgring and Spa if possible.  The rough itinerary is to hit: France Belgium Germany Switzerland Monaco Italy  Driving through the Alpine roads all the way down to Monte Carlo, scenic routes preferred. In 2012 I did a week-long road trip from Milan to Nice and back for the Italian GP. Had a blast so I'm really looking forward to an even longer trip!

Mcquiz Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Stelvio pass? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stelvio_Pass   Belgian F1 GP - August 24 Italian F1 GP - September 7 I second that, went through Stelvio Pass 2 years ago, it was something special. If you happen to go through there I'd also suggest going to Garmisch-Partenkirchen especially for this river Also the route from Cuneo along E74 to Nice going through Sospel is quite fantastic, especially if you have a car for it. I believe Clarkson and Hammond went through there in their last years DVD as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outcast Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 That sounds like it's gonna be one helluva trip, but I second that question. What cars will you be driving? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCspeed34 Posted March 14, 2014 Author Share Posted March 14, 2014 Still not sure what car we're going to get. It's going to be a rental of course. My only requirements so far are 2-doors and a manual transmission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlover325 Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 I'm going on a road trip this spring, won't be pretty as that, but I'm excited. My rental is a pick-up truck since I will be bringing furniture from Texas to Georgia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epoxi Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 (edited) Rent an Alfa Romeo, because it never makes sense to actually buy one. Edited March 14, 2014 by epoxi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlover325 Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Truck is already full of family members. Not just a road trip, either. Also get to visit family and friends in Texas for a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
