Las Vegas, NV - Well, we made it inside the convention centre, finally, on day 2 of the 2013 SEMA Show in Sin City. We gotta say, the street candy was almost too distracting, but boy are we glad we made it inside.
From a classic 1960's Rambler American Wagon (#wagonlove!!) to a Fiat 500, day 2 was a mix of retro goodness and modern classics. Ferrari F12s, Nissan Skylines, Ford Broncos, and Hyundai Velosters... where to look? Heavily modded or tastefully enhanced, each possessed the power to capture our attention for just the right amount of time as we poked around each and explored the hard work and dedication each tuning house put into their vehicles.
The 2013 SEMA Show is, more than anything, a showcase of craftsmanship, of dedication. The vehicles on display are works of art in their own right. While some are about pure power (check out the 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback in the gallery), others are just absolutely stunning to behold (you'll wanna see the 1950 Studebaker Woody).

The 2013 SEMA Show was truly an impressive display of everything automotive, from bumper to bumper, and we've tried our darndest to bring it all to you. We'll have hundreds upon hundreds of pictures for you, loads of texts, and a bunch of videos by the time all is said and done.
Each of us fell in love with something we saw over the last few days. As far as I'm concerned, my tally works out to roughly 29 cars and 32 pickups... I'm gonna need a bigger garage, and wallet.
So there you have it: the 2013 SEMA Show, done and done.
See you next year!
