SEMA 2010: Worst of Show [video]

Do you like to slow down when you see a car crash? If so, then you’ll love our “Worst of Show” from the 2010 SEMA Show.

Scissor doors? Check. Purple Interior? Check. Chrome paint? Check. And those cars have nothing on the Hulk-themed donkmobile above. A Mecca for the automotive tuning industry, SEMA brings together some of the best and some of the absolute worst modified cars on the planet. And with so many other outlets picking their “Top 10” we thought we’d share a selection of the cars of the SEMA Show that just make our Vodka Redbulls from the night before rise up out of our collective stomachs.

We’ll admit that some aren’t entire abominations and in fact many are beautiful cars that have just been ruined by a few small mods. We also tried to be fair and shoot more than just the DUB Show Live cars. (That would have been too easy).

Overall, there were fewer disasters this year than in the past, which we theorize has to do with how the recession has hurt the automobile electronics industry. All the in-car entertainment companies were still present at SEMA, but absent were the blinged-out Scion xB stereos with wheels.

But enough with the talk, get a load of the carnage below. Sometimes the term “Epic Fail” just isn’t strong enough.
