Vegas, Baby, Vegas - Breaking News

What the Cannes Film Festival is to cinema and Paris Fashion Week is to couture; SEMA is that, and then some, to the automotive aftermarket. With more than 2,000 exhibitors and 125,000 attendees in over a million square feet of space, it's a four-day gauntlet of all things car.
