Held each year in Las Vegas, Nevada, the SEMA Show is an industry event for the Specialty Equipment Manufacturers Association.
Tuners and parts suppliers from across the industry and even from the realm of motorsports come to show off their wares, usually displayed on some sort of eye-catching highly-modified vehicle - be it a muscle car, hot rod or sport compact car.
And let's not forget the increasing presence of mainstream manufacturers like Hyundai, Scion, Honda, Ford, Chevrolet, Cadillac, Chrysler and Dodge. Major areas of interest at SEMA include Racing and Performance, Wheels and Tires, as well as Trucks, SUVs and Off-Road vehicles.

As Japan's largest auto show, the Tokyo Motor Show will be somewhat smaller for 2009 than in years past as no foreign automakers will be displaying or announcing new products. Still, the show will hardly be empty with Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Subaru and Suzuki all taking advantage of the more centralized focus on the Japanese auto industry, with most of the automakers introducing numerous new production and concept cars.
Some of the most highly anticipated launches include the Lexus LF-A, Honda CR-Z, Subaru Hybrid Tourer Concept, Mitsubishi Concept PX-MiEV, Mazda Kiyora Concept and the joint Toyota-Subaru project the FT-86 Concept. We'll bring constant updates will official unveilings happening on October 21st.
