Ish was the best part of the show
>>
Here is my proposal for a Pimp My Ride reboot: Pimp My EV
>>
>>28981713
It’s alright but the novelty of what they do to the cars wears off fast and I don’t care about the owners so the middle third of each episode is boring.
if they could distill the episodes down to 5 minutes of before and after tours it would be improved.

Would they manage to fit more LCD into them or actually remove the existing ones?

Of course, you can always put the LCD in the trunk

It was a silly show. Many of their cars were hack jobs.

The VW camper van for the surfer kid was good

ALL.of the cars were hack jobs.
I remember one particular episode they were doing body work on some guys beloved van and they just filled a 2"×8" rust hole with chicken wire and bondo.
>>
>>28981960
Kek.
Thats the van.
Here's the hole they used chicken wire and bondo on.
Fuck those douche bags.
>>
I learned the guys on this show would intimidate and pressure the kids to have more over-the-top reactions to their car being "pimped".

>We just put a bubble gum machine in yo whip, I know you can jump around higher than that. Now we gone reshoot this part, and I wanna see some more appreciation
>>
>>28981960
I think they did more respectful work on the classic cars.
>>
I miss this show
>>
>yo dog were heard your dad died in a fire so we put a BBQ in the trunk
>>
>>28981976
Remember, the show was "Pimp My Ride" and not called fix all the rust on my ride.
>>
>>28981960
That video is horrific.
Dude laid the bondo on the front end like he was applying stucco to a house.
I saw a video of some of the vehicles after a few years of use.
That van was one of them.
It was exactly as you'd expect it to look (if you've ever done body work)- cracks everywhere and giant chunks had fallen out, which of course caused the paint to fail and it was peeling off everywhere like some ginger with a sunburn.
Van was in worse condition than before the show because they didnt kill the rust, they just sealed it away so it could grow unabated and it just ate the van.
Its a total loss.
The car that blew bubbles was in a similar state.

Id like to see somebody dig up one car that actually didnt fall apart after the show.
Just one.

>>28981713
In retrospect it was based and can't be remade for modern car culture.

See the Taurus showed up at a junkyard recently. From the looks of it it just sat in storage since the episode.
>>
>>28982285
Lol.
Dude just sat on it, hoping it would have some collector value and he could make bank from Barret-Jackson but its just a piece of shit that nobody cares about and he sent it to the junkyard.

Link?

I'd assume every car at this point is trashed and dead.

US reality shows are straight rubbish. I don't know how anyone watches that crap without turning retarded (if you weren't already).

Some jewtuber(thinknit was hoovie), fixed up the dodge mpv and it eventually was sent to some museum
>>
>>28982629
Dodge didn't make an MPV, Mazda did though.

My teacher had her car pimped when I was in highschool. She didn't have a car for a couple months, even though on the show they make it seem like it's done in a couple days. They didn't show up at her house, she knew where to be months in advance and it was filmed at a set house. She had to sign a bunch of papers saying she wouldn't sue no matter how bad they fucked it up. They sat her down and told her the point was to make it ridiculous, that she probably wasn't going to actually like it, but they knew she was using a spare beater car like a lot of other people who got on the show. She also had to keep multiple decals on the car advertising MTV and Pimp My Ride, which they added later. She also wasn't allowed to sell the car for a certain number of years after receiving it.

Basically it was a big sham but we all got to laugh at her fucked up ridiculous car.

fucking stupid and that's what made it fun. I preferred the White Guy version though
>>
>>28982261
pretty sure most of the participants were paid enough money that they could go buy a decent used car after filming anyway.
