sfgr415's 2007 SEMA Picture Thread (Semi-NWS) No 56K

So as most of you know, I was at SEMA this past week. Over the years I have decreased the number of pictures I take each year. There are just so many cars out there. Anyways, here are some pics I took.

Friend's Audi S5:





Same friend's Audi Q7 (24" Vellano wheels, 17" Mov'It Brakes)









SoloPresidents' G37







A few S2000's for Kris

















350Z with GTO engine swap:



























Tu has nothing on this (G35):











VIP:



Serious I.C.E:

























Twin-Charged Dodge Charger (2 turbos, 1 supercharger):



Shane, time to start modding the Prius:












And for some model pics. As for the blackout, my friend sucks at taking pictures. He took them too early or too late so I have an akward pose in most pictures. Anyways, you all know how I look.

Christine Mendoza:





Carolyn Savage:



Stephanie Ly:



Jenny Chu:



Some random models on Halloween:

Yes. Steve Smith. He comes to my shop all the time. He is founder of Tunershop (tunershop.com) and has now started Fog City Performance (fogcityperformance.com). He mainly does Euro's and does alot of KW, Vellano, etc.

He just sold a real nice A8 (or was it an S8? don't remember):





This is his older A8, which he sold a long time ago:

Thanks. It's very difficult to take good shots at a show like SEMA. There are way too many people walking around so unless you wait around, you don't really have a long window to shoot. Another thing is that at times, there is so little space between another object and the car that its hard to shoot. I just take shots at weird angles and I usually like the way they come out.

Great pics, the S5 looked so hot. The color is very nice in person, the Q7's brakes were like whoa.

Steve brought the Q7 to my work one day and my jaw dropped. The brakes are really impressive in person.

Honestly, I never liked the look of the A5/S5, but once I saw what Steve did, I changed my opinion.
