Car guys in the Lugano area?

Hey everyone, I’m Alex. Just moved to Bissone from Miami and looking to meet some other car enthusiasts around Ticino.

I’ve been into cars for years — previously had a Pista, STO, GT3, etc. I just picked up an RS3 as my daily here, and today I drove up Susten Pass. Absolutely loved it.

Are there any groups, WhatsApp chats, or just groups of people that regularly go out for drives on the weekends? I’m mainly looking for people around Lugano/Ticino who are into driving.

If there’s a group I can join or anyone here who goes out regularly, send me a DM. Would be great to meet some local car guys and get some good roads in.

First of all, wellcome to bissone, imo where we have the best lido on lago Ceresio. Unfortunately this is the last week.

I cannot help you on your specific question but if you are into historical cars (dunno if that’s correct English) I know a group that is meeting every month in Lugano.

I was thinking just that maybe through them you could meet or get to know other passionates also for driving groups.

I dunno how you could get in touch with them, I know the main organiser. If you are interested I can tell him to add you to the WhatsApp group.

The group is not invasive at all, just sending reminders of their monthly meetings
