For the automotive industry, SEMA represents the largest gathering of like-minded businesses and professionals. For us at Areté, it's a chance to meet the individuals that engineer and represent the forefront of automotive refinishing and protection. We are so humbled by the opportunity to use these tools to our advantage, backed by the countless years of experience and support that comes with them. We thank our loyal clientele throughout the state and beyond for supporting us year after year. We hope you enjoy our coverage of The SEMA Show 2016, part 1 of 3- the rest of which will be released over the coming days.

The latest (F80) BMW M3 is truly an impressive machine. From its aggressive styling to powerful, twin-turbo drive train we never get tired of working with them. This particular example came in Yas Marina Blue which is an absolutely spectacular color; featuring pearl and heavy flake over a cool pastel blue.

We were incredibly fortunate to have attended and sponsored some excellent events this summer show season. Both regional and local, we have an active and diverse automotive community here in western New York. From cars and coffee events to massive all-day shows, we saw some truly special vehicles and met plenty of enthusiasts willing to share their passion for machines. Every summer, the community seems to grow and we love to be a part of every event we possible can be.

We see a lot of exciting machines come through our doors. Some stand out more than others, and this C7 Corvette certainly was one of them! Not only is the current generation Corvette absolutely stunning, this color scheme stole our hearts. GM really has created a masterpiece with this vehicle from the deep, glossy white paint surface to the sparkling black trim accents we were ready to dig in.
