Default SEMA - Las Vegas

I was fortunate enough to sneak into the SEMA Show in Vegas today.

Oddly enough they had 6-7 Cameros on display including one with the LS7 engine in it (They indicated it (LS7)would not be offered any time soon if at all).

They did not have one ZR1 on display?????

Of course, Nissan had the GTR about 4-5 units spread throughout the show at various booths inlcuding one at the TIRE RACK.

there's also a red ZR1 in the HRE's booth. It was suppose to be my brother's cyber grey, but they got another. Thank goodness, it was not his, I saw people leaning and saw a few scratches already!

There are three ZR1s here at the show. Two red ones (Spring Mountain and HRE) and one yellow one upstairs in front of the truck/SUV section.

The original poster is right though...I found it odd that were no ZR1's or CTS-V's at the GM booth!

Yep. There's a section in the North hall that has a 69 ZL-1, a 69 302, and some other really choice Camaros.



Dreading the walk from my hotel back to the CC today. My feet are killing me

A TON of Pontiac G8s, GXPs, Challengers,and Mustangs as well.....

I've noticed the lack of really tricked out cars at the show this year compared to years past. I'm sure it's a sign of the economic times.

Here's another pic of Spring Mountain's ZR1:
