If you're going to the SEMA Show for the first time this year, here's some advice: wear comfy shoes! You'll thank me later for it. Walking around the dedicated halls in Las Vegas, you'll see plenty of cool cars, but you'll also stack up thousands of steps along the way.
It also helps to identify the booths you want to see if you plan to tour only some of the show floor. Having an itinerary will be helpful if you don't want to miss any of the cool cars you went there for. I've shown you three vehicles in the Eneos booth: the twin-engine Nissan 350Z, the 2JZ-powered Jaguar E-Type, and the 1997 Toyota Land Cruiser Pickup. Nissan also has an excellent selection on display, but now let's look at what Milltek Corp has brought to the event.
First and foremost, everyone will be excited to see their new Ford Mustang Dark Horse demo car. Milltek Sport is a company from the United Kingdom, and Milltek Corp is its USA operation. And you know that saying: "When in Rome, do as the Romans do." Many companies have already developed an aftermarket exhaust system for Ford's sports car, so the competition is quite stiff.
But that's a good thing for customers looking for the right sound. The base MSRP for the Mustang Dark Horse is $59,270 before tax ($1,595 destination charge), so spending a few more grand to make it even better sounds like the right thing to do. While Milltek Corp notes that its new exhaust system will increase horsepower and torque, official figures will likely become available at the SEMA Show.
While I doubt the booth representatives will demonstrate the system inside the hall, you might get to hear it after the event is over, and everyone goes out for a drive on the Strip. For now, we glimpse the 4.5-inch tailpipes, which look right at home on the back of the Mustang.
But the Dark Horse isn't the only vehicle displayed at the Milltek Corp booth in the Central Hall. As an official distributor for Urban Automotive Products in the US, the company will exhibit two luxury vehicles: a Range Rover L460 and a Rolls Royce Ghost. Both cars are fitted with a Milltek Sport exhaust system, and I'm genuinely curious how the big V12 sounds with it on.
When I reviewed the Phantom last year, it was pretty quiet inside. If you're into Euro cars, you'll be happy to hear that this exhibitor will have two more at the show via its collaboration with Auto Finesse and Ramair. It should be interesting to see the MK1 Volkswagen Caddy sitting across the newer G87-Series BMW M2. I am more interested in hearing that Dark Horse growl!
