Sema Pics 56K Run Away :D

Mods if this should be in photographs please move it.

Anyway, Im not a pro photographer, these were all shot w/ my phone. My buddy took professional pics and will upload those as soon as he gets back intown.

Notice the chrome painted mustang and hotwheels camaro..


This place is huge, we spent 3 days and didnt see everything, saw a few acuras, an ugly ass 3g TL that you will see in the pics, a few hondas. The v8 gen coupe was pretty awesome, as was the LS1 (corvette engine) gen coupe lol...




































Trans am kit for the current camaro.. 6k for the kit.
























Stogies Jeep...



















































me and bumble bee












Check out the engine,,,.

Thanks for taking the time to post up the pics!

I must admit, I like the idea behind the Trans Am kit for the current generation Camaro. Made me a little nostalgic for the Smokey & the Bandit T/A from my youth.

S14, yeah I know, I put a disclaimer up

Ttribe, you should've seen it in person, it was gorgeous. The designer was talking to us about it, its 6k to your door, not counting paint, prep fitment etc lol.

A 350Zanamera! Those things are rare! I have only seen 1 before!

I like the Skyline throwback.

I noticed from all the pics of SEMA coverage that there are just as many HIDEOUS cars as there are really nice looking ones. Who decides what goes into the show?

Lol, you have to "buy space" if you will. You can put whatever the hell you want in there. The big boys (Chevy, Ford, Honda, Hyunda) Had the largest spaces, all the vendors had small like 10x10 booths.

And yes Srika can veto anything. lol

- That Trans Am kit is a must for the Camaro...it looks soooo much better.

- I can't believe I'm going to say this, but that blue Civic Si looks good.

- LOL @ the comment about the TL...he's a member.

Moog, my aunt and uncle run dial-up at home. When you boot up their computer AOL is the default browser/homepage.

They claim they spend enough time on computers at work and don't want to be on them at home.

Thanks. Don't you have to be "in the industry" somehow to get passes inside? It's not held in the same place every year is it, don't they move it around?

Yep, the show isn't open to the public. Over 100k people attend each year though and it's always in Las Vegas.



CM thanks for sharing the pics! I walked around for two days straight and you posted cars I didn't see at all
