Import Alliance this year was a much more unique experience for me as I was invited to come and do some coverage of what is called “The Tour Couture”. In recent years the Tour Couture was a group of enthusiasts from Nashville and Chattanooga, TN who caravanned down to Atlanta for the big Import Alliance Meet. Producing 50+ cars it was definitely the place to be if you were attending the meet and were coming through TN.

This year the “Tour” was a bust with only a handful of cars who made it but it was still a blast to attend and cover! Got to hang halfway out the window of a 350Z going highway speeds and in and out of mountainous turns and grades for a good 4-5 hours haha was GREAT! Thanks for the invite guys!

Here we go!

Big thanks to my good friend Kevin for letting me borrow the car for the weekend. My GS has a lot of little issues that need to be taken care of before she is ready to get back on the road again so we needed a ride up to Nashville.

Of course this meant I was going to have some fun tagging up the car with a couple of International AllStars decals!
