Similar to last year's post-SEMA Show event at Subaru of Las Vegas, Subie Jam featured most of the Subaru display vehicles for viewing by the public. Subaru vehicles from the Subaru booth, Subaru vendors, and the convention's car show were taken to the dealership. These included the SPT "Get More G's" WRX STI, AEM WRX STI, KICKER WRX, #199 Subaru Rally Team USA WRX STI, and Jamarri Whiteside's WRX STI.
Other vehicles on display that were shown last year were Subaru of Las Vegas' 360 Van ("Fast Parts, Slow Delivery") and the Crawford Performance orange time attack "Tiger" WRX STI (read more here). The Subaru Rally Team USA display trailer was also on hand. The dealership's Zenkai Motorsports division time attack car was on display, too.
Subaru owners and tuners were invited to enter their vehicles in the day's car show. Subaru vehicles with stunning modifications lined the walls behind the dealership.
Several vendors and organizations took part in the show. Among them were Crawford Performance, Motul, Liberty Mutual, and ENOES motor oil, and Subaru-branded bicycle helmets were given away. There were many other vendors as well.
Nobuhiro “Monster” Tajima, the winning driver of the 2010 Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, was among the spectators who visited the show.
Subaru of Las Vegas also provided music and a raffle.
This was the seventh year that Subaru of Las Vegas has hosted a post-show event. For a LOT more about Subie Jam, see its video on You Tube and to go the Subie Jam website.
