If you didnt have an SI or were EMO you were not "cool" to them.. (lol) No, but really.. It look like there site was more geared towards the CIVIC SI at the time..I also used to browse Honda-acura.net and saw how they were succesful by opening to all models other then CIVICS..

So I decided to start something.. the 1st person I ever told about my idea was Chirs aka 4bangin on IA.. he said it could be cool..

Next problem was.. I didnt know shit about how to start a website or nothing.. At the time I was in a car club called Perfected Images and I spoke with Brian Miller who had a little knowledge about how to go about building a site etc..
At 1st he was 50/50 about the whole idea, until he finally said ok, Ill help you... this was around NOV 2000.. so we built a site, well brian did.. and on FEB of 2001 Importatlanta.com was launched.

Perfected Images car club was pretty known locally and with the help of team members we pushed the Site at all events we attended.
One of our biggest Marketing ideas was letting people say whatever the hell they wanted to say.. It worked..... No matter what.. People love reading bullshit.. is just the way our crazy minds worked. .. and here we are today..

Alot of bumpy roads in the last few years.. but we are here..

I had a few partners on the site..
Brian, pablo, Rushi, Chris (importsouth) and Now paul...


There you go.

thanks.. and i've heard of siatlatna,
