Dante famously included blasphemers among his infamous Hell's Seventh Circle.
And that might be why many members of the media use the analogy to that forsaken bit of real estate when referring to the annual SEMA show in Las Vegas. Because there's plenty of mechanical blasphemy at the annual automotive carnival, as it's filled with builders who asked themselves whether they could do something, before bothering to ponder whether they should.

But to concentrate on the wild impracticality of many cars on the floor, or focus on the fact that many will be dumped on eBay before the turn of the new year, is to miss the point of the spectacle.
After all, where can you see a hyper-custom 4,000-horsepower Ford "Equadoline," a dead-sexy BMW Z4 one-off roadster, a Scion low rider, and a wild, stainless steel Burning Man car all in the same place?
