S.E.M.A pictures to laugh at

I come from more of a custom car/car show background as opposed to a sports car background, I've owned several slammed/shaved/whatever else rides, but at what point do people think "this would look sweet!" I mean, not to be a hater or to slam someone else's taste, but this?!? seriously...what happened?

eeeek!



and this one:




On the other hand, I do think this car is gorgeous



I'd love to attend this show some day just to gawk in person.

The blue car at the bottom is hot...

I'm seeing quite a few more of the bigwheel cars around Indy lately. Kinda scary.

i like the blue car at the bottom. but the other two...no words. they should be smacked. and as for the companies that make that crap...i don't know whether to blame them, or congratulate them on making the expression "a fool and his money are soon parted" ring ever so true

That chopped 40's hot rod is awesome. In fact it's an insult to for the other two vehicles to even share the same oxygen supply.

Kumho came out with the 28" in 2003 at SEMA, only fit the H2. This year Hankook raised the bar, 28" front and 30" rear on an H2.

ugh..we should all just go back to wagon wheels lol

just think about it, we could drift, throw sparks, do burnouts, and whatever else and never have to replace a tire! rofl

Seeing cars like that makes me want to beat the driver in the face with a lead pipe.
