German sportscar giant Porsche is looking to move its U.S. headquarters from a suburb of Atlanta, to an ex-Ford facility that used to manufacture the old Taurus, according to the Atlanta Journal Constitution.

The old plant, which is located near the Hartsfield-Atlanta International Airport, has been leveled and cleaned of any environmental hazards. Porsche is hoping to start fresh and building a facility to their liking, which will reportedly have its own test track on-site.

Porsche's current lease runs out in 2013. Expect a full announcement from Porsche very soon.

If Porsche is nice enough to it's customers it will offer track days to us =) but that might be some wishful thinking.

The amount of things Porsche will have to do to convert that facility to their liking and needs are probably far beyond what i could imagine. Going from a place that makes cheap Ford cars to a place that builds some of the best German cars around takes a lot of work!
