SEMA 2014 photo coverage (cars and babes)

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
This will be a three part thread:

POST 1: Outdoor Feature cars
POST 2: Indoor Booth Cars
POST 3: SEMA Girls


The outdoor area of SEMA is a public extension of the show through the 'Feature Car' program. Any vendor who has bought booth space with SEMA can sponsor in vehicles for a fee to represent their products outside the show hall. The check-in process starts via several registration emails which include sending SEMA photos of your car. They evaluate the car based upon the photos and pick a check-in time for you based upon several factors but ultimately it comes down to how much they like your car and/or how much pull your primary sponsor has. The earlier your check-in the better because they start parking cars close to the show halls and work their way out.

I showed up at the earliest check-in time, 8AM, at the staging lot behind the convention center, they checked me in and you wait in a staging line as they process cars one by one. You receive your free optima battery and mothers show car care kit and are then marshaled in a giant line along the side of the convention center. The placement managers are on these little electric buggies riding up and down the line looking at the cars. I made sure to give them a smile and a wave as they drove by because they will pull the cars they like the most out of line for special placement. Luckily about 30 minutes into the wait one of the buggies drove up to my window and said 'follow me!' so I was able to jump the line and drive the car all the way to the front entrance of the main show hall! Once parked I gave the car a quick wipe down, popped the hood and started walking around to take photos of all the other cars as they rolled in.

Enjoy!

God that Rocket Bunny, Liberty Walk-Fast and Furious garbage needs to go away! Stance culture seems to be polluting every aspect of car genre now these days. Jeez

Great photo coverage. It's difficult to get clean shots like that.

Monday is always a "slow" day and the morning is the best time for pics. Later in the week it will get much harder to get clean pics, I know I've tried and failed lol.

I'd say 50% of the cars this year are widebodies and/or stance'd…its starting to get played out. Im also kind of turned off at how fast the F80 has been taken to the extreme, normally its at least a couple years into the model run before you see a crazy widebody car…I think the aftermarket rat race reaching a fever pace is going to ultimately hurt later model year sales.

Yeah, hardly anyone around besides show managers and feature car owners.

Great set of pics!

It's an awesome feeling being able to see your own car at the show. Never would I have imagined that my little 2 series would be at SEMA. Can't wait to see what's in store for the rest of the week

Liberty walk kit looks terrible on the new f82, it doesn't seem to flow well at all and is somehow worse than the e92 m kit.
