Hey I'm home from Vegas! The show was bigger this year, I'd say that it has recovered to where it was ~4 years ago before the industry went down hill.
I think there were mostly Mustangs there, followed by Camaros. I saw 1 EG hatch and one EK hatch and one Teg lol. Overall the Japanese imports seemes to be less than previous years, but maybe that's just because the rest of the show grew so much. Euros were pretty big, a lot of BMW's this year.
What was hot for SEMA 2010: Flushness everywhere, Satin paint/wraps, Concave wheels are just starting to become popular vs of huge lips with flat faces. Also satin finishes on wheels, as well as color matched wheels. There was a lot more turbo'd cars than in years past too. Domestics were definitely the majority of the show this year.
What was not: 'Rat rods' were scarce this year compared to previous years... or people are just finishing them now into Hot Rods, which there were plenty of. Huge Heavy Chrome Wheels are finally being replaced by more polished, machined or painted wheels, often in 2 or 3 piece instead of cast. (It's about time!) Japanese Imports were looking a little weak this year, drowned out by Mustangs & Camaros. The upper level of the South Hall, for 4x4 and offroad, was also not back up to the massive size it was before the industry began to hurt a few years ago.
Anyways, here's the link to the gallery of 1700+ pics:
