SEMA Car Makeovers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Tricked-Out Toyota Venza

— October 2, 2008 — Autos
The Toyota Venza is getting a sleek new look for SEMA. The SEMA show is the premier aftermarket product and specialty car trade event in the world, and many automakers commission tuning companies to trick out one of their new models especially for the event.

Two Toyota Venza crossovers have been put in the hands of tuners Five Axis and Street Design. Street Design has given the Venza giant tires and wheels, ground effects and interior luxury touches. Five Axis, on the other hand, has added an integrated cargo/bike carrier and other convenience features that play up to the Venza's crossover nature.

Since SEMA isn't open to the general public, we'll have to wait for the autorati to update us to see how close the pair of Toyota Venzas come to their renderings here.
