This is the Specialty Equipment Market Association show this week. Does that mean anything to you? What if we shorten it? SEMA. The world’s largest showcase for tuned cars, it takes place in Las Vegas and there’s nothing quite like the scope and variety of wild and wacky cars on display. We’ve now uploaded a full gallery of images, which we invite you to browse to see the wilder side of the West Coast. The latest photos are all of Lexus and Toyota, so if you want to know more about them read on, otherwise look at the size of the wheels someone managed to cram under a Hummer, which they did at an original 300SL Roadster, that sort of thing.
Lexus gave pride of place to the new CT200h, which features 18-inch rims, big brakes, wheels and plenty of attitude. It “shows what an F Sport version of the CT200h could offer,” says Lexus. Don’t expect them to produce it. Neither the GS450h and LS600h that the company had also exhibited.
Toyota’s star was a Prius with carbon body panels, “Mystic Lavender” paint and massive suspension. Apparently, this helps the model celebrate her 10th birthday in the United States. The only car with proper under-hood mods was a 145bhp (up from 106bhp) Yaris.
