Hopefully you caught Part 1 of our 2015 SEMA show coverage. We’ll continue with more interesting cars throughout the numerous halls of the aftermarket industry mecca.

The largest trade show in the automotive world is the SEMA show. Short for “Specialty Equipment Market Association”, this convention showcases the newest products, builds, and emerging trends in the automotive aftermarket. The Las Vegas Convention Center (and its surrounding lots) hosts the massive spectacle for the entire first week of November.

Ivy League college campuses are known for their elevated education, historic architecture, and perceived wealth. They're not usually associated with the setting of the import car community until Canibeat began hosting their annual show First Class Fitment in Princeton, NJ.

The second generation of the iconic AE86 chassis was released to the world a few years ago in the form of the Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ. In that time, it has created such a large impact on the aftermarket tuning industry that an annual show in Southern California is dedicated to showcasing its potential.

Once a year under the Southern California sunshine, car enthusiasts gather to witness some of the finest vintage Japanese automobiles in the country. The Queen Mary in Long Beach, California played host to the 11th annual Japanese Classic Car Show.

During the weekend of Formula Drift in Texas, the paddock at Texas Motor Speedway doubled as the grounds for the Offset Kings car show presented by Fatlace. The show provided its own relaxing atmosphere despite the action from the drift event in the background. This stop of the touring car show displayed some of the best builds from the Lonestar State.

Legitimate car shows are greatly outnumbered by unorganized meets. The anticipation of a large-scale car show gives car owners a deadline to complete their modifications. The hope of taking home a trophy urges updates to each build between years. When the Wekfest car show tour makes its annual stop in Edison, NJ, the Northeast unleashes its finest show cars.

Bimmerfest is the largest BMW car show in North America. East and West coast locations allow the thousands of attendees on either side of the United States to celebrate the Bavarian automaker. For its fifth year, Bimmerfest East changed their event location to Old Bridge Township Raceway Park in Englishtown, NJ.

In the world of collector cars there are countless choices of which auction company to sell or buy a car through. Choosing the ideal auction event can be the difference between a guaranteed sale and taking your automobile back home with you. Of these larger auction companies, Mecum Auto Auctions is one of the prominent few to be televised live.
