SEMA SPY SHOTS! - a Preview of what's to come - 56K WAIT pls
Managed to sneak into the SEMA Staging area and snap a few pics. Well, no, I didn't really sneak in there...sorta .... kinda.
Saw a couple of member's rides.
WHOA, How'd that get in there?

Nice, so this was in Vegas? Only reason I know is I stayed at the Wynn hotel when I was there last month!
The cherry tC is niiice! Also, I like the wheels on the 2nd to last pic of the tC. They resemble, uh, maybe the Infinity FX-35's optional rims??

SEMA - http://www.sema.org/main/semaorghome...MAorg/HomePage
it's a Trade show focused on Aftermarket car parts. The biggest names in the industry usually show there, so the quality of the cars on display is top-notch.

Chris Rado's Time Attack tC:
Project HER tC:
Story from Urban Racer:
Speaking of outrageous concepts - besides the Scion xA Tuner Challenge, Scion’s SEMA plans include the display of a several art cars that were completed by famous up and coming artists. David Choe is one of the featured artists and if the sketches of his project xB are to be taken seriously, it will be one of the most interesting Scions at SEMA. Choe, one of the youngest artists to ever have a solo show at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles, has worked on every surface - from canvases to human bodies to the third world’s war torn walls.
For his xB, Choe combined his unique interpretation with practical tuning choices that produce a lifted (20”) xB with a pick-up truck exterior conversion. Throw in 18” J-Line wheels and a custom, integrated drum kit and you have the makings of a must-see attraction at the Scion booth.
Actual xB:

Wish I could. Ironically I'm the Scion Champion at my dealership & I couldn't get off work to go! I even had an all-expenses-paid trip, but I'm stuck in Maryland. The pics are from a friend of mine that's at SEMA. Have fun all!

LOL want some Irony? I'm a Vegas Local, my wife works in one of the largest Convention center-related businesses in Las Vegas so we could hop into SEMA at any time and the only chance I could get to even get near SEMA was when we snuck into the staging area last saturday, so I doubt if I'll be able to get in any more pics =\.
Damned busy schedules.
I'm glad to see that all of our Scion folks are representing hard though. Damned good work, everyone.

Hey Guys - I'm the owner of the candy red tC pictured above. We've been having a great time here in Vegas. We've been here since Saturday morning and and will be heading back home to So Cal this Saturday.
