So I had to run back to my office before traffic got too bad, I only got a few pics of some cool stuff around our booth, plus, many booths are still being put together (seriously. talk about last minute). But here are some of the vehicles I came across (FYI, this is about 5% of the show area which I took these photos in).
[Just to not release any unwanted spoilers]
So this years show is sure to be filled with C7s...
\
And C7s...
Oh, and C7s
And.... Toyotabaru's (I only snapped this one wide body, but like 4 more were being rolled in as I was walking out)
As always, the Jeeps have a presence, not that I am mad at it, as I also own a Jeep, but it hurts seeing so many broed-out Jeeps (some are actually done right, others are done just for the look)
And big bro trucks (this ones okay, the bro-bros are outside with their 10" lifts and 40" tires covered in tire shine...)
A slammed Mustang whos owner is lucky I didn't find him and stick my size 11 boot up his ass for doing such horrid things to this car.
And a sweet little hot rod truck.
This happened
Then I found this Radical
There was this thing that I am told is some kind of a fish
And this sweet Pikes Peak diesel racer was sitting out on the patio
And then GoPro (who is my booth neighbor) brought out a stadium truck which sounded awesome as they pulled it in.
And if you've stuck with me for this long, you will be rewarded with this:
Yupp, A Huayra (or however its spelled). I showed up 10 minutes after they pulled this bad boy in. So sad I missed hearing it, but I should hear it when they move it out after the show, and hopefully video then. I tried like hell to get them to let me sit in it too, but no luck...

Hate is a strong word. I hate him.
Good thing it wasn't anything irreplaceable!

There were a few that looked to be really well built. one with a roots style blower that temporarily peaked my interest as the wheeled it past.

What exactly are they trying to promote using naked mannequins?

Hellaflush is really taking hold! That S4 is both pretty (with 2" lift) and Kinja'd. Could be the Mustang.
Awesome cars, though! I would love to go to SEMA

Banks Super-Turbo, two turbos and a supercharger.
For when you can never have enough boost!

No hes not naked, hes actually wearing black underpants, which I found hilarious, and no clue. They had a kid mannequin riding a bicycle, but he was clothed and wearing a GoPro. Kind of thinking this is what they will be doing tonight; dressing their mannequins to wear GoPros...

Roots blower? I know there was an offering for the car, but it wasn't that great. Do you know whose it was?

It was being moved in and the owner was showing some other guy while he waited to be okay-ed to park inside. It was wrapped and had a bunch of sponsor names on it but couldn't tell you which blower or booth the car could be found.

Not a stadium truck, that's the desert trophy truck of Las Vegas native Bryce Menzies. Spare tires on the back, 100 gallon fuel cell, 800 hp engine, second seat for co-driver, etc. This thing was designed to eat up hundreds of miles of open desert at absurd speeds. It's won the Mint 400 and the Baja 500, along with other events.

Like that, but bigger. The turbo's about the size of a basketball

Ah yes, my mistake.
The supercharger is also about the size of a small engine.

Not a stadium truck, that's Bryce Menzies' Trophy Truck. Y'know, for bombing through the Baja Peninsula, Vegas-to-Reno, and the Mint 400.

I just posted the error before getting to the comments due to pure disgust, then noticed you posted the same thing.

It's dezert pride. Instills an inherent need to correct inaccurate categorization immediately.

That Huayra (or one with the same color interior, exterior, and rims, and since they said there's only 1 of them in the U.S) is the same one that was at C&C New Canaan.
Also, My favorite Jeep is the one that went off roading (they tested it).
Oh, what was that, they didn't test any of them?
