You have to remember that most of these companies at SEMA are major corporations, or components of major corporations, and need to present themselves as professionals. A lot of those guys you see in suits at SEMA aren't just sales/marketing, there are quite a few engineers there too. Plus, many salesmen/marketers in the auto industry are true automotive enthusiasts too. I should know, because I was working AAPEX/SEMA wearing a suit and I am incredibly passionate about cars.

You can tell a lot about someone who takes pride in their appearance and professional demeanor. That sort of person is probably someone who takes pride in the quality of their product as well. I think you're letting the used car salesman in a cheap suit and rich dude in an expensive suit, who scams people out of their money before driving off in his Ferrari, get the better of your judgement.

I'm sorry, but your generalization is incredibly baseless and ignorant.
