The WORST (& Best) of SEMA 2024

[@evilberger1]

People who touch cars at shows piss me off.

[@user-eh7pl9gx6m]

There is no more trademark protection against using Elenor. That lady lost the lawsuit. It’s free use now.

[@fueledgaragetv1212]

@@user-eh7pl9gx6m maybe not but Eleanor Licensing LLC still gets roughly $18,000 to license your ‘67 Mustang Fastback and stick a badge on it.

[@Mac_Made]

It still amazes me that people don’t realize SEMA is NOT a car show. It’s a showcase for products. The vehicles aren’t required to be complete or safe or even pretty.

[@warwickandrews]

This is true for the indoors. For the most part the outdoor section is a car show, but I do not believe they call it one so overall you may also be technically correct

[@NYEK_GTR_]

Still crazy to showcase whatever product you’re trying to sell on a vehicle that isn’t complete nor safe or pretty. But true sema is just a giant networking event.

[@eptdy]

Its a trade show.

[@natalinomonastra96]

Finally someone gets it

[@TheJamesLykins]

And if your company wants to show off an incomplete build, they can do that.

[@_BangDroid_]

Cybertrucks are the most god-awful boring things with wheels. The only way to make them interesting is to dress them up like something they're not.

[@rickleaver9068]

Good to see my old 66 in your yard. The lawsuit for the Eleanor name is over. They lost anybody can use the name. Good video. I didn't attend this year.

[@warwickandrews]

Ayyyy I love connecting with previous owners, which 66?

[@leemen]

Great video. My wife and I also walked it all in 3 days. I noticed a lot of the same good and bad as you. I wish I would have seen the wheel weights on the outside of those wheels. Lol.

[@Burnout.Garage]

You are exactly what we need. SVU OF SEMA. Since i couldn't make it this year, Im truly enjoying this episode. Thank you Warwick

[@doubleT84]

37:05 Volkswagen Golf 2 #ThunderBunny by JP Performance from Germany. Twin Turbo Mid Engine VR6 🤯, he said "about 1000 hp" in a short Interview with Shmee. Probably true, the car was on the dyno 24 hours before being shipped to the US when the engine broke and got a new engine block with similar hardware just in time. The first steps of the build were 4 years ago, this year he modified it insanely. Most of the gold parts are electroplated with real gold. He has tons of videos on his channel (German, though).

[@warwickandrews]

Appreciate that good info thanks

[@swalling22]

I absolutely love how you show the real behind the scenes. So many people fake it to SEMA. It's not me trying to be petty, but it's ridiculous some of the shit these guys try to slide under the rug. Thank you for your honesty ✊✊

[@Mac_Made]

@@swalling22 Fake it to SEMA? Wtf does that even mean? It’s not a car show

[@supermob33]

Another very in depth look at the SEMA show! Great stuff Warwick 👊💥 Thanks for the shoutout buddy🙏🔥🤘 Can't wait for SEMA 2025!

[@Wap4life]

Just came across your channel! It's great! new sub.

[@warwickandrews]

Glad you’re enjoying, lots to come!

[@TheEctocooler]

apparently the "lambo" Miata was fake its just a intake the the turbos aren't even hooked up lol

[@yucannthahvitt]

Well yeah, it's SEMA. Most of the stuff there can't move under its own power.

[@GRWD_62]

Best SEMA video 🥇 award 🍻

[@warwickandrews]

Thank you I appreciate that

[@anotherbluenova6358]

I hate the bro dozer trucks. Absolutely worthless

[@hwynhnk]

Ohh thank God. I saw my car and she didn’t get roasted. And no I won’t tell you which one was mine! LOL

[@walter9724]

Shame the miata was an absolute fake. And basically was run out

[@cmorlok]

Really enjoyed your video! Thank you so much for taking the time to bring us along and put together one fine hour of entertainment sir…..well done 👌

[@dr.dansgarage]

Best SEMA video on the youtube. Second year in a row.

[@BodiTriggerfinger]

Welcome back to Bluetooth City…… Greetings to Canada. Thx for sharing this, so I saved a lot of time…….

[@SavingClassicCars]

Awesome job Warwick, you killed it bud! For anyone that hasn’t been to SEMA before, the amount of walking he did is impressive. Our feet feel like they’re going to explode after day one! See you and Mega Mini in 2025 😎👍

[@warwickandrews]

Thanks Jay appreciate it. Sounds good can’t wait!

[@S42069]

The "jack handle" rubber slip is not for your hands- it is to protect the car. So the Pro Eagle is correct.

[@warwickandrews]

Ooohhh well today I learned. Thanks for that info

[@edmdarkstar]

Yay you made it out to the blue lot . Also you got a pic of my car 52:24 im from Edmonton.

[@warwickandrews]

Awesome dude which car? Congrats on making it down to the show

[@NoCo_Supra]

the miata was all bluetooth

[@Nervous29]

Since when did SEMA become a car show? If I recall, it was just a new product/service showcase. No trophies etc. I don’t know, I’m surprised how many people actually care and put so much time/effort into showcasing the flaws.

[@Smitleyjd]

@@Nervous29 it's basically the biggest name in "product advertisement" or more accurately described as "show off show" where half the vehicles there are just to show off and not promote or sell anything. They're just there to show off their work. Just cool to look at.

[@bazilwreckerloughead]

You really gotta be in shape to check out SEMA!

[@warwickandrews]

There’s so much visual stimulation that you barely notice it until your foot has blisters lol

[@adrianandrews7424]

Thanks for the effort bro enjoyed it.

[@zacharysawyer6241]

Fun fact, BleepinJeep, and most of those other overlanders at the OnX Off Road area just got off a week long “overlanding” trip for the On X challenge this year. The last part of it was SEMA.

[@ozzstars_cars]

Nice job with the video. Tons of editing that flowed perfectly. I remember seeing Chain Smoker 1.0 at the 2019 SEMA Show in that back parking lot. The truck was so cool and thought to myself that's a hell of a lot of welding!! Thanks for the great footage! -Glen (Ozz)

[@warwickandrews]

I appreciate that Glen, glad you liked v.1 and happy to bring you along!

[@kevinbarrett9615]

Some of the extreme lifted trucks with the 24” rims on rubber band tires are the worst undriveable monstrosities out there, just wretched excess .

[@jf2369af]

Why did you not talk smack about that fack miata with a Lamborghini engine?

[@warwickandrews]

It’s in the sema victims unit video in black and white you just didn’t know it lol. I’m not trying to call out any owners, there’s lots of other guys already doin that

[@bradd1780]

I looked at that car and am pretty sure it was a chevy LS block.

[@mrtandemslidessbtt]

As someone from Scotland, who will probably never experience SEMA, I whole heartedly appreciate this video and your efforts of documenting a LOT more of this show than most others do! Thank you man!

[@warwickandrews]

Many thanks, I did my best try to and give the best experience for someone like yourself

[@simosimpson5189]

Thanks for sharing. Great video. My feet are sore just watching this.

[@warwickandrews]

Thanks for the kind words, glad you enjoyed it

[@bford1646]

can I ask a dumb question...maybe?... WHY? Why build a $300000 truck or car and bring it here if u don't have a company or product that your trying to promote...? I thought SEMA was a product expo? Looks like a sward fight😂😂

[@ianrobertson3419]

Yes, my tractor from the 80s has double ujoints for the front wheel drive steering. However, those aren't bouncing up and down.

[@600wheel]

The easy way to tell a tri five Chevy, the 56 grill goes all the way across and the 57 has the fancy bumpers leaving the 55 with the super simple grill

[@joshuawhite3901]

If a cybertruck tries to pull you over, just go off road😆

[@rogerbrandt6678]

All respect to the guy with the carpet and cup to catch oil.

[@600wheel]

Thank you man!🤘😎🤘

[@onetireonfire2777]

This is one of my most anticipated videos to watch every year!

[@warwickandrews]

Happy to keep you entertained my friend

[@mile1920]

most of these vehicles look like a 8 yr old designed them for other 8yr olds

[@lennyrivera2366]

That car with the lambo intake has an ls eng. The old 52 fakeout

[@cdcava]

Thank you for this video, it was a fun watch, subscribed!

[@tylerseabook9423]

Was waiting for this.

[@Autoholics-Anonymous]

11:33 It was my only goal to NOT end up on this list yet here we are. They made me move it for battle of the builders :(

[@warwickandrews]

Ahaha shiet well at least it was a super minor thing and if you delete your comment it will stay between us ;) I don’t show the cars they are on cause I’m not here to roast y’all owners, I’m one of you and understand what it’s like with a billion things happening at once. Now I know who you are so I subscribed so there’s that silver lining to look at lol

[@Mr.clintontoney]

2:50 that Miata was a fraud. NOT A V10 !! It was a LS with a Lamborghini intake manifold!!

[@warwickandrews]

Haha I go back to it later in the video

[@Mr.clintontoney]

@ agggghh , i commented way too early 🤣🤣. The bad thing is the car didn’t even run. THEY HAD TO TOW IT OUT ! 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

[@Smitleyjd]

I tried the VR painting since that's what I do. It's interesting in theory but I think it still lacks a lot that can be learned much must faster in real world work.

[@PowerstrokeSynd]

Thanks, I appreciate the video

[@86themadhatter27]

I dont really understand all the cybertrucks there. Like ''what did you guys do to yours?'' ''i raised mine and put bigger wheels on it, what about you guys?'' ''same''. The polish looks nice i guess. Really good vid

[@warwickandrews]

Thanks bud, and I agree completely. I feel it’s a certain type of person that buys them, and it’s hard to get into those peoples heads lol. They like it and there’s lots of stuff I like that others don’t so I respect them for expressing themselves even if to me it seems one dimensional with the only changes on them being wraps or bolts on over land stuff or bolt on cop stuff. Nobody that truly customizes cars (as far as I’m concerned) gives a shit so nothing extreme has really happened. Or maybe they just can’t afford one to heavily modify it, who knows. Probably mix of both. Either way I’m hoping to see the 30” wheels any level lifted mall crawler style next year lol and maybe some more extreme cyber truck builds of the like

[@600wheel]

That Diamond T truck with the turbo headlights did either Hot Rod drag week or rocky mountain race week this year I can’t member which, made it through the whole competition. Thousand miles of driving and five drag racing days ridiculous

[@captnjaygreybeard6394]

Great video, enjoyed seeing all of the show

[@poizonfreak9967]

I think on the lifted trucks, your tires should be twice the height of the wheel. So 22’s on a 44 and a 17/18 on a 35.

[@itzurreaper]

52:18 I was about to say "don't you clown my Subie guys"... then I noticed bro has splitter rods going to his plastic bumper. We really can't get outta our own way LOL

[@eddier155]

Nice to see you thriving after the Property Gantlet series.

[@warwickandrews]

Thank you! It’s certainly nice to no longer have neighbours in my life lol

[@fuzzandtanya]

Hello from Medicine Hat. Thanks for the tour 👍

[@warwickandrews]

Hello hello, thanks for watching

[@OGbrundle]

Best sema coverage ive ever seen

[@warwickandrews]

Appreciate that thank you

[@justlistenXD7]

every truck is built the same lifted with dumb wide's, id like to see a old school lifted with some meaty tires. i call them me too trucks lol

[@T.I.R24]

Yep...that's why I run 40's on 17's

[@KyleDavidson-w1p]

Hell ya i grew up in red deer I love Alberta grew up there I'm out in Ontario now but I miss Rd and Alberta hope to come back

[@1lowrx]

Hey you found my car hidding in the booth 😜 thanks! 34:46

[@warwickandrews]

Hell of a ride you’ve got there brother!

[@ProNoobRC]

I know this rig! Another fellow Canadian build!

[@therackstar]

Cybertrucks are not good trucks.

[@N4CR]

That bee was actually a type of fly that looks like a bee to confuse potential predators lol.

[@mebigbear]

Amazing. I always wondered if the builds were real. Oh ya its the bluetooth drives halts for 2024. Lol

[@kevinAuman1]

Wow all the gold plating and engraving with an added touch of custom carbon fiber weaves im definitely able to get behind this...

[@wesringeisen4109]

The red 57 Chevy in the crc booth is a hydrogen powered hemi

[@Nyc_figure_fanatic]

Great video always wanted to make it out to Sema but doubt i will. Thank you for this. Also Do you recall who had that biomechanical dragon? I'd like to find more pictures of it. Thanks 🤘🏽

[@warwickandrews]

Thanks for the kind words! Yep it was in the Siegmund Welding Tables booth

[@600wheel]

When Ken Block died Hoonigan died with him😢

[@hjsj8831]

I thought Shelby won the lawsuit against Denice and the whole Eleanor bs was over.

[@fueledgaragetv1212]

I miss the good ole days when SEMA was a trade show where business owners made there buying decisions and the public wasn’t allowed. Not a battle of the builders

[@poog6256]

I mean that’s still what it largely is. Just the outdoor section is mainly focused on being a car show. The entire upper floor was all about different types of tools and resources. I’d say maybe 10% of the vendors had a car in their booth.

[@ShawnWing-t1o]

Inactually loke the fact that the asian giy wont sell his product and limits it to people who only ship their car or truck to a different countrie. It makes it more rare and when you do see it you know what that person jad to do to get it. I think thats cooler than everyone having access to it and it beeing the next sema fad that dies out in a year or more

[@phil600616]

24:34 I have faith now that the speed holes in my olds will be cool! hahaha

[@Alex77au]

Name and shame, people need to be called out.

[@DAT240Z72]

It’s carved! I have a friend who does that in Spokane, WA. There’s nothing to sell.

[@warwickandrews]

It’s the thick paint that you “carve” into that’s the proprietary product

[@Mike-br6fg]

Sema cars should all do a 50 mile loop. A car that can not be driven is not a car shame on those that show up with undone cars should be ashamed

[@craigmontague6802]

NICE JOB KEEP GOING

[@caseyzelig7973]

I was told growing up around custom cars that it's BAD LUCK to remove your tire stickers.

[@sohchx]

I still don't understand why Brodozers are still a thing

[@95riosnake]

I’ve been looking forward to your annual SEMA video, it didn’t disappoint 👍 Would you believe the color on Georjah’s yota is from a 2013 Chevy Spark? Proof that the right vehicle can pull off a color that another can’t

[@warwickandrews]

Haha awesome, it all about thinking outside the box and seeing the beauty in spots where others don’t such as the Spark color

[@bisket2003]

Love the Grind Hard and Ethan shout out!

[@elivilla1759]

It was nice hearing lamborghini as it should be said 😂😂😂 (spanish speaker)

[@MrLio12]

Lol let your 2021 sema days go Bud😂😂😂 every 10 minutes !!!

Didn’t realize twice over 50 minutes was “every 10 minutes” but I’m sorry to hear it triggers you so much

[@Petrolheadonism]

Thanks for loving Bruno the Italian Hot Rod at 39.00 🎉

[@my__dsm_8_u248]

The wrap on the Charger at 42:38 was actually a 3D print. They had glasses you could look through to see it. Not my style but it was definitely impressive to see.

[@warwickandrews]

ooo that makes it even cooler and explains the double pattern on it. I thought it looked great without even knowing lol, now I wish I had asked and taken a look through the glasses

[@JR2012now]

You got me with the 57 1/2 lol

[@shaneda420]

Im such a lover its hard to hate any of them

[@yucannthahvitt]

Ok someone please tell me why 10 different wrap+wheels cybertrucks and THREE that are just polished, get into sema? Why do they allow a bunch of the same exact thing in?

[@supercarspecifics]

dude luv the pink pig livery of the 1st gen Porsche cayan Dakar (yes folks there was a dakar cayan before the 992 911 dakar imma a porsche dork ) whats up from Toronto Ont (origianlly from Van) love the sema roast vlogs dude I treid to get dow nthere this year to meet ya in person, but saving up for monterey and how fuuny is that miyata with the "lambo hurcan engine" gettin kicked outta sema for being a fake build so everyone knows its not a real huracan V10 in the miyata its a gm v8 with lambo huracan intake covers

[@aaronscott2278]

Love the lambo intake on the miata it also didnt even run but a great show rig shocked you didn’t roast it lol

[@warwickandrews]

I tried not to roast anyone where you could tell what vehicle it is. This car actually did make it in the roasts but clearly it worked because you couldn’t tell haha. There’s lots of other guys roasting cars with no regard for the owners so I let those guys do it. I’m not here to make enemies I just wanna show you some bad stuff and some good stuff the way it really is

[@aemsignite7144]

But sadly that miata did not actually have a Lamborghini v12 it was actually a v8 and most of the stuff was not actually hooked up so it did not run

[@warwickandrews]

I think you mean Lamborghini v10 but correct the v8 lt engine in it was not functional

[@kurtbarrett6785]

Holy mackrel! Have a 57 Chev.! They're not bad if done to the highest level or just kept bone stock, but I've always preferred the 55 with it's cleaner/more subdued lines and there's just something about the awesome jet lookin hood ornament and the simple egg crate grille!

[@SC_XOLOs]

What’s worse, the Bluetooth drive shaft or the Lamborghini intakes on the Miata connected on WiFi 😂

[@Mart77]

SEMA should have some filter. Cybertruck with wrap and wheels is not a showcar build

[@calspaugh8078]

SEMA isn’t a car show. It’s a car products show. That’s why the cars are not show quality

You have never used a floor jack. The padding on the handle isn't for your hands ya noob

[@bravejango12]
