I had the opportunity to attend SEMA in Las Vegas for the first time this year. My first thought, “Whoa, there’s a lot to see.” Even from all the video and article coverage I’ve seen of past shows, I had no idea just how large this conference really is. I won’t bore you with all the stories about hanging out with celebrities and winning tons of money at the casino, because I know you came for for the cars. Here’s a gallery of many of the ones I enjoyed, in the order I encountered them. Sorry for less than great quality, I don’t have an iPhone. What’s your favorite?
