Each year the SEMA Show in Las Vegas gets bigger. For auto industry people only, the show always includes hundreds of custom built cars on display with the 1000’s of parts and accessories.
Here’s a small gallery of some of the cars of SEMA 2012
Could the Torana be on the way back to the Australian marketplace? According to Wheels magazine, possibly.
In January this year, Chevrolet displayed a concept car, the Code 130R, at the Detroit Motor Show. Designed to appeal to the under 30 year old, the Code 130R featured a turbocharged 4 cylinder, but more importantly, rear wheel drive.
Could this model appear in Australia badged as a Torana? Would it be a worthy vehicle to carry the Torana name, and would Holden re-introduce a GTR XU1? Perhaps with a V6 shoehorned under that long nose? Look at the picture and you be the judge.

$500,000 Aston Martin Wrecked
The opening stage of day three of East Coast Bullbars Rally Calder has been marred by a major accident involving the Aston Martin V8 Vantage of Tasmanians Ivan Thompson and Karl Francis.
The half million dollar Aston Martin made heavy contact after sliding wide on wet grass and contacting a concrete barrier at high speed destroying the left hand door of the car.
Co-driver Francis was transferred to a local hospital for precautionary x-rays following the incident and has been diagnosed with a dislocated pelvis but has been cleared of neck, shoulder and spinal injury. Thompson walked away from the accident without injury.
Car owner Dave Thompson is assessing whether or not the car can be repaired for the remaining rounds of the Bosch Australian Rally Championship.
Meanwhile, Steve Shepherd holds the outright lead in the Four Wheel Drive Championship with the final two stages of the event being held this afternoon and Honda drive Eli Evans heads controls the Two Wheel Drive Championship.
