Every year, the nation’s top builders, parts suppliers, and industry pros roll into Las Vegas for the annual SEMA aftermarket extravaganza. However, this year, an entirely different experience awaits in the parking lot of the Convention Center. The massive stretch of asphalt formerly occupied by Ford will be transformed into…
The eBay Motors Experience—an open-air snow globe of tire smoke, outrageous car builds, parts showcases, and 130,000 square feet of immersive and exhilarating activities.
After a high-octane year of build projects and eBay Motors partnerships, SEMA ‘22 showgoers can get an up-close look at a slew of show-stopping rides. But the motoring life is not a spectator sport. You’ll be able to drift sideways, burn donuts, turn wrenches, and bid on exclusive parts.
Choose from these activities—or go wild and do them all.
Drift Ride-Alongs and the Hoonigan BurnYard
Do you love strapping in and getting sideways? Are you intoxicated by the scent of burning rubber? Then ride-alongs with Skip Barber Racing School pros—courtesy of the Hoonigans—should satisfy your craving. Insider tip: Don’t miss the screeching finale on Friday.
Live Wrenching Tutorials with Chris Fix
Elbow in for a trio of how-to demonstrations from YouTube’s biggest automotive DIYer as he tinkers on his LeMons BMW 330xi. Will Chris take off the helmet? Check the Vegas odds.
“Between 2 Rides” Showcase
Fans of the eBay Motors YouTube series are in for a treat. Peruse Emelia Hartford’s record-setting 1,200-horsepower C8 Corvette. Not enough oomph? Then check out two-time Formula Drift Champion Chris Forsberg’s 1,300-horsepower 2023 Nissan Z.
“Parts of America” Tour Stop
The eBay Motors’ “Parts of America” tour docks at SEMA before reaching its final destination at the Los Angeles Auto Show. In Vegas, we will show off five outrageous builds and the parts that made them possible. The list includes Christina Roki’s Challenger Hellcat Redeye, Scraplife Garage’s Audi R8 Kart, and Big Tire Garage’s Jeep YJ Shop Truck.
Post-Malone Monster Raptor
While the Ford Raptor is a remarkable truck straight from the factory, some folks need more. John Williams of Impulse Off Road scratches that itch by adding half a dozen claws and 558 horsepower to a Raptor. Rapper Post Malone wanted to take things even further. Enter the six-by-six Claymore truck, which must be seen to believed.
Ken Block Racing Parts Auction
Here’s your chance to bid on brightly colored parts from some of Ken Block’s infamous tire-slaying machines. Scan the part’s QR code on-site, and boom, shop the eBay Motors auction.
