Introduction

There’s a battle going on in Vegas, but it has nothing to do with a per-per-view UFC bloodbath or high-heeled local working gals angling for the best spot just off the Strip. It’s the showdown between imports and domestics cars, and its all happening within the ring known as the 2007 SEMA Show. More imports filled the booths this year, helped no doubt by Toyota being this year’s showcased automaker. There were even front-drive Scion drag cars, for Pete’s sake. But old-school American-iron lovers need not fret – American muscle was well represented with some meticulous rides…not a one of ‘em with anything less than an earth-shaking V-8.
