damn yall ni gg as dont know shit.. IA was perfectedimages.com IA was started by PI president Brian Miller and Julio ... before paul ( admin ) even had his drivers license
before julio was in allstars...
it was during the days of Hybrid racing development. We started passing out importatlanta flyers at the hybrid show for the first time in history..

lol, im just saying.. i was in the room when the first home page for importatlanta was written up. infact I did the mortgage on the house where IA was launched!lol..Originally Posted by blacknightteg
julio ended up taking the idea and running all the way home with it, brian got a family and stopped working on the site.. shortly thereafter Paul aka moldy vdub the admin started taking brians spot..
yeah. i came in a lil late but still it has blossomed a hell of a lot since o5 when i joined

heres a test for all IA people claiming to be on OG status..
if your an IA OG then you know who this guy is
this is my brother he now lives in orlando.. anyone know his name??
shiit, i dont even think paul was around when me and my brother where wrenching cars everynight building up the ATL scene
Importatlanta started like this : A little history.
I used to Browse SIATLANTA.COM back like in 2000 or so.. At the time that forum was "OK". I used to go to EAST COAST HONDA MEETS and SIATLANTA meets.
I saw that some of the members of SIATLANTA.COM were sorda stuck up just because they drove SI's =/. So I really didnt dig that..
So I switch boards and started posting on Hondaclub and Honda-Acura net.
I became an ADMIN for HONDACLUB.COM and learn some shit with there forum..
While Messing around on HONDACLUB I thought about starting a site that everyone would or could be a part of without being stuck up.
The 1st Person I ever told about my Idea was Chris AKA 4 banging on here..
But a big problem.. I had no idea really how start a site..
Around that same time I was a part of PERFECTED IMAGES.
Also around that time PI had a small site with a Forum..
I went over to Brian Miller's house , I shot him the Idea and asked him if He could help building a site w/ a forum. He said yeah. So we went to work around NOV of 2000. I already had a name and everything.. Just had enough PC knowledge to start off.
So on FEB 24th 2001 Importatlanta.com was launched.
All of Us in PI started advertising IMPORTATLANTA.COM.
PI members at the time : Brian, Rob, Jeff, Alex, Bryan, Thai, Steve, Me, deon and a few others.. We were handing flyers everywhere..
In 2003 Me and another guy Tried to push IA to another level, We started IMPORTSOUTH, basiclly turning IA into another level.
It did not work out.. I could not understand his vision... So we split up..
IA emerged again.
Before I broke of Importsouth , I spoke with Pablo aka Pothole and told him my plans of breaking off and emerging IA again and asked him if he wanted to be a part of IA and help me set it off again.. He said, yes...
We started , we rolled.. but we ran into some troubles with the site.. we did not know shit about websites.. So, We had a couple of webmasters, didnt work out..
Pablo suggest We bring In Paul... I was like fuck no.. Me and paul had a small beef at one time..
We were driving one day and brainstorming and Pablo told me to just squash whatever I had with Paun and Bring him in as a webmaster.. I told Pablo to go ahead and call Paul..
So between all 3 of us we did a lot of shit in 04, 05 and 06.. ..
After I started chilling with paul he wasnt that bad of a person and had great ideas.. All 3 of us combined ideas and just took IA to the next level.
Pablo decides that his time as part of the IA team had come.. He leaves..
Me and Paul are left to carry IA.. Paul brought in alot of heart, vision, ideas and knowledge and was hungry..
A couple of years ago, A group of us rented a cabin in Gatlinburg,TN .. while we all staying there, Me and paul were chilling in the outside balcony..
Paul tells me , hey man, I want to buy into Importatlanta, how much would it take..
I said, Paul with all the work you have put in and none of us have really made that much money of it, I ll just bring you in as a partner... I cant really charge you, I would feel real bad for it.
Kinda of like Julio owns 60% / Paul earns 40% type deal. Since that Day Paul became Co-Owner of Importatlanta.com.
We agreed and moved on.
Paul has been running IA for about 3 to 4 years now.. and really took IA to the next level.
And there you have it.
Honestly, me and paul can pretty much read each others mind right away.. He has been a great business partner... We have never disagreed in anything.. And I wouldve never thought back then, lol..
So there you have it.. Pretty much in a nutshell.

unfortunately the scene will never be like that again - freaking back then those meets were sick... so many cars you had to park and just wait hours to get out b/c there was no driving around at the hybrid meets.Originally Posted by 2SICC4IA
first time i met w/ you guys in PI was at Solar Eclipse + Hifi Buys show right after Mall of GA area was being built up. You guys had a meeting at the Arbys and invited Pedal/Me. i got a call from jeff a few weeks back about a party for his new house but we could make it. it would be nice to see how everyone is doing today.
who between me/julio...? probably some dumb internet shit... i know there was something when Jeff had a falling out with UAB and they were a site sponsor.Originally Posted by jacktheraper
Shit happens, sponsor problems in any area can make for some good back yard brawls. lol
I lurk, therefore I am......
because we all grew up man.. if we were still young the scene in ATL would still be thriving.. It is kinda sad, those were some of the best years of my life despite the fact I was married back then.. even my wife was in PI.. lol!
I love you Paul!
