DIAMOND BAR, Calif., Jan. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- SEMA, the Specialty Equipment
Market Association, has posted 1,438 cars, trucks, and performance boats and
948 new automotive products displayed at SEMA Show 2002 in Las Vegas on its
consumer Web site, http://www.enjoythedrive.com .
"Our annual SEMA Show is open to participants in our industry but not to
the general public. The Show receives a tremendous amount of media attention
and piques consumer interest about what's on display there. By putting all
the vehicles and new product entries online, and making them easily
searchable, we can bring our famous SEMA Show to the public," said Christopher
D. Horn, SEMA's vice president of communications and technology.
Horn termed the vehicles, which range from outrageous concept cars to
classic cars which are perfectly restored, "pure eye-candy." The new products
have an equally broad diversity, ranging from the newest L.E.D. (light-
emitting diode) cosmetic accessories for the popular compact performance cars
to easy-to-install replacement bumpers for muscle cars from the '50s to the
latest in mobile electronics for family vehicles, he said.
The SEMA Show 2002 recap can be viewed at http://www.enjoythedrive.com , found
under the "cool & current" section on the site home page -- titled "2002 SEMA
Show New Product Showcase."

open to the public, SEMA does produce one show, the International Auto Salon,
for the compact performance industry as well as its customers. That show,
scheduled for Friday, April 25, through Sunday, April 27, concentrates upon
