Last weekend at Road Atlanta, the second Fatlace 1 of 1 car show was held alongside the Formula Drift event. The show area was much smaller than the one at Long Beach, but there were still some pretty interesting cars that made it out to represent the Southeast USA.
During one of the break periods, I spared a few minutes to snap some photos from the show.
Sometimes it gets a little old seeing the same cars over and over on the west coast. so it's always nice to get a look at cars from other parts of the country. The first one that caught me eye was this slammed Lexus SC.
Nearly 20 years after it came out, the Soarer/SC is still a damn good looking car, especially when dumped on the ground like this.
Tucked perfectly into the fenders are a set of blingin' CCW Classics. And that brings me to another thing I noticed about the cars in Atlanta…
…the popularity of CCW wheels. This late model Civic Coupe was also sporting a set.
As was this Honda Accord. I'm a huge fan of this bodystyle Accord, so I was thinking about doing a quick spotlight on this car. What do you think?
Here's a Z20 Toyota Soarer imported from Japan, looking like it came straight out of the early '90s.
Another flashback with this wide-body AE86 Levin looking mean on negative offset Longchamps.
Old school Toyota livery. Awesome.
Simple and clean. A second generation Integra sedan sitting on a set of BBS RS's.
I think my favorite car (or truck) of all was this crazy SR20-powered Datsun 620. I'd seen some photos of it on the net before, and it's even more ridiculous in person.
Check the completely custom chassis. It's not just for show either, this thing gets hammered regularly at local Atlanta drift events.
A bit of Mazda Roadster love, in Mariner Blue.
So, how do you get street-tagged S15 Silvia in the USA? I wanna know. I wanna know.
There was also a small sprinkling of Euro cars thrown in, like this dumped Jetta.
Man, I remember when it was big deal to see a WRX with a concave wheels. Now it's almost a big deal to not see one with concave wheels…
Another one of the cars that caught my eye, this super clean JZA80 Supra.
Never, ever underestimate the power of a nice set of wheels and a good drop.
I'll finish up with this nicely stanced Suzuka Blue S2000. For some reason a lot of people shy away from this color, but I like it.
Can't wait to see what the next of 1 of 1 show has in store.

Definitely do a feature on that CD Accord!!! Never enough love.
Definately looking forward to the Accord feature. Great pics man! I love the Suzuka Blue shade on S2000s.
Could def use a feature on that accord.
HELL YEAH DO THE ACCORD FEATUREEE
No thanks on the accord follow up.
But definitely one one that datsun/truck thing
Suzuka Blue looks like a MOPED COLOR , probably thats why )))))
I'm drooling all over the Z20 Toyota Soarer
I love Chad Copeland!
<3
I agree with your opinion on the 5th gen accord, but I think that a feature on that fine, fine s15 would be more entertaining...
FEATURE ON THE ACCORD IS A MUST!! love that body type of accord as well cant get enough of it at the moment haha
SLAMMED SOARER ....UUUUGGHHH!!! WANT ONE SOOOO EFFIN BAD
More on that 620pu and NA Miata please
???? vinyl work IS awesome.
That S15 is truly 1 of 1
I remember seeing that accord in honda tuning or one of the still remaining tuner performance magazines. I definitely think the accord worthy of a spotlight. do the soarer too i'd loooove to see that bright white and polished wheels in a neo noir-esque shoot
''So, how do you get street-tagged S15 Silvia in the USA? I wanna know. I wanna know. ''
I think the only way is to strip a S15 to the bare bone and import it like a kit car.
I think the truck would make a cooler feature
You should totally do a feature on the S15 and how to get one into the US.
The Accord feature would suffice too.
Atlanta definitely had some hot imports. All their cars are soo clean, not runny crazy paintjobs or kits, just looking fresh. Pretty cool, seeing what the south is bringing.
"So, how do you get street-tagged S15 Silvia in the USA? I wanna know. I wanna know."
Georgia is one of the easier states for importing such cars. Especially if you're in the military and bring it back with you.
fuck that stupid ass hard parked accord... shits weak sauce.
that SR datsun 620 needs a write up. Hella flush is starting to become the new ricer.
man f*ck that accord, feature the trucky datsun 620! shit was super fresh
Good selection of cars.
that datsun truck is pretty sick.....wish i could drive it for a day
I really like the pic of the Miata just screams "Let's go for a drive!"... and please do the Accord feature!
Does anyone have any further info about the blue Miata/MX5's wheel specs? It looks absolutely perfect, and I'd like to achieve the same with mine.
No thanks on the accord, rather see a feature on the truck. You say that's a drifter? WELL PLAYED SIR.
I love the Datsun 620 and the GZ20.
DATSUN FEATURE!!!! NOWW!!!!!!
love that datsun 620
*need to do a spotlight on it! lol
please feature that super hot supra
love the honda S2000.. yeah do a feature on the SR20-powered Datsun 620, that would be a refereshing change.. and i'm liking the S15 Silvia .. pity its a 1 of 1 Show.. or is it?? - good post!!
there where more cars than that. where are the rest??????
no pix of that wacky S13 with the pink Works???????
Who cares about accords. Do a feature on either of the soarers or the datsun truck.
man i wana see features on the Accord the truck and that roadster!
Datsun truck feature!!!
NO ACCORD FEATURE!!
CD5? Yes, please.
Maybe some cb7 love too, if your up for it.
wow u didnt get Jesse's car or David's? Some many more cars than that...
I have to say I really, really hate CCWs, they look like chrome blinged out aluminium versions of the horrid stamped steel centre aftermarket rims of the 80s. Ugly, Ugly, Ugly, cannot see the attraction of them at all.
I get the feeling most of the reason they're so popular with you seppos is because they cost lots of money.
S5 Silvia's look sooooo much better when they arent masked in race liveries or decals. Stickers are perfect though
What wheels are on the Z20 Toyota Soarer? The Supra is SICK.
loving the s2000...i got to show love to fellow s2000 owner
The Green S15 looks so nice and clean.
Perfect examples of the WRX / Supra and S2000, fitment is perfect.
We need more Hellaflush Soarer's in AUS just like the one in the 1st pic.
Hell yeah teh Accord please!
BurgerKong- "What wheels are on the Z20 Toyota Soarer?"
Sterns. I don't know exact ones. I'd have to go downstairs and look.
Accord please.
I thought you could just order a S15 in Vancouver as a track car (cheap for some reason} and have the paperwork done to bring it in to the USA. bin told its a common thing in Seattle.
That S15 is up in my area. Word is that the guy picked it up in shitty condition, with a DE in it, for 5K. Painted it, did some upgrades, and voila.
Thread on the car can be found here: http://www.huntsvilledrift.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=824
dont do a feature on an accord EVER...that s15 was gorgeous...after being to the long beach one/one the atlanta one was a total let down, def some nice cars but nothing to compare to long beach...hopefully nj is sick
all those Scions that were there and not a single one in the coverage??? Oh, well
Do the accord write up please
america is lightyears ahead when it comes to car styles. so many clean cars and that green s15 is perfect.
So, how do you get street-tagged S15 Silvia in the USA? I wanna know. I wanna know.
You can't unless you are willing to crash test the car and go through proper EPA testing for it. Do the owner of that car a favor and take that photo down of his car before you get him in trouble.
White civic on CCW's is a fellow member of 8thcivic.com WOOOTS! Great coverage! That Supra is SOOOOooo Clean.
DO THE DATSUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HONDAS R 4 HOMOS
what about the corolla? that was hot!!
