Chevy Impala - Pimp My Ride Car For Sale on Ebay

[DAWeinG]

Well what happens is that they have a list of questions. They ask you and you come up with your thoughts and say it onto the camera. It won't come out natural unless you're used to cameras and the whole setup. You answer their questions and they try to reword it for you into something that's short, concise, and maybe somewhat witty. If you're nervous you lose the natural feel and the energy because you have to keep on repeating that line over and over again.

What happened was my friend invited me, his gf, and his gf's friend (pics in the next episode😛). We had to drive all the way to one of the producer's homes and do the shoot there. They mount cameras and stuff all over the car and set up all their equipment. You get to hang in the backyard which is pretty boring overall. My friend had to stay there from 10am to around 4-5pm. The friends had to stay about 1.5 hours. There's 2 other people competing for the pimp my ride that you'll probably never see. They're doing the same thing probably on the same day.

After the shoot, the top execs of MTV view the 3 competitors and see what's going to air. About a month later, my friend gets the news and supposedly he goes to someone's house and they do the congratulating party with xzibit. Then he has to wait a month or two for them to pimp his van with I think $25,000 worth of crap. That's about it. Pretty boring and lame.

Wow, those cars are actually tasteful. Do they actually go any engine work or is it all 'bling' like PMR?

So when X walks up and knocks on the door the people already knew that their ride was being pimped?

Always thought that's how it worked. Kinda wondered why no one answered the doors in their PJ's

That's exactly how it happens. It's not even in their house, it's in someone else's house.

 

[Injury]

they have some really freaking good creative work on some of these, but aside from the electronics system, half the crap they put in just isn't practical.

A FSCKING oxygen bar? A retractable grind bar? Screw that.

Save the money and put carputers in or something.

 

[Chadder007]

Just shows how much the kids "really" like their cars after they are done with them. :laugh:

 

[ThePresence]

That is the ugliest thing I have ever seen.

Dude, you don't understand. Those guys take the WHOLE car apart and pretty much build it back up from the ground up. EVERYTHING is redone on those cars. It's like they just came off the assembly line, but better. 😉

WTF! LOL!

Every episode starts at a different house though, correct? There can't be that many producers working on the show....

[Saint Nick]

did anyone see the AMC pacer they recently did? it was by far the ugliest car they have done yet.

 

[733SHiFTY]

This car is garbage. x-zibit or however he spells his name, is a fcking asshat. I can only hope that the qualified mechanics on that show at least feel guilty about what they do to cars for a living.
