Pimp My Ride
 

Last night i was watching Pimp my ride, because my internet was down. After it got done they showed a preveiw of the season finale, so this sunday they are going to Pimp a Black 2g Eclipse that has Altezzas. LMFAO thats one Pimp my ride that i wanna see.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

Yeah, what a pile of shit... The guy even has to climb in through the hatch because neither of the doors work.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

You guys do realize they fuck the cars up a lot more than they really are just to get that "POS" effect on the show.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

They do mess the cars up before you see them. I really don't think anyone would have a car they can't get into. Why would a 2G's doors not work?

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

Chronically broken handles. Or the rod inside the door that attaches to the handle.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

....or they pretend the doors don't work just for that added effect...come on guys, don't let MTV fool you that easily.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

because its a Dsm thats why the doors wouldnt work. Its one of lifes great questions, just like the question why does a dsm crankwalk? or Why did tom buy an auto???

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

I like when X goes to the front door and for some reason they always anser right away all dressed and looking good. Fucking setup.

CRAIG

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

I've never seen or heard of a DSM that had non-working doors. Every single one i've ever seen, even in junkyards...they all work. If anything the hatch wouldn't work:)

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

Its generally the hatch's lock cyclinder that will break first. Even if the door handles did break...uh oh a $40 part!!

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

that would be funny if X just fixes the locks and takes off the altezzas and says "the dsm community would not let me fix your car so i guess your SOL dawg."

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

I think they give them a two week notice. TalonTSiDude knows. He had seen the setup for that 240 they did. The car wasn't that bad off. For the show they had made the popups not work and unbolted something...anywho. School is out so I am too.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

Yeah, on the 240 they actually starting taking off the bodykit and let it just hang so it looked like a POS and ripped out the what was a complete and intact interior.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

This black 2G they plan on "PIMPING" would prolly be better off in a junkyard. Besides the fact that it's prolly not a turbo and doesn't really matter wut they do to it......it's still gonna be a slow-ass POS.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

I have seen someone need to get in through the hatch of the car before. Some asian kid who I took car classes with drove his brother's integra and had to. They were shaving the door handles off and shaved the handles before putting the poppers in.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

hahahaha

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

My door handle broke off on my driver's side door one morning on my way out the door for work. DSMz break dude! If it isn't believable on another car, believe it if it's on a DSM!

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

I gotta see this part just for the hell of it. Maybe they'll throw a EvoVIII turbo into it... ;).

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

^^ haha, yeah right. Instead of the turbo, for compensation of it being a slow POS, they'll add three 7" inch moniters. They never do anything to the engine besides change the oil or clean it up with an engine dress-up kit.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

it might be the "twist" of the show... :). J/K

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

It'll be a Fast and Furious clone probably.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

Yeah, something along those lines, would be my guess. It will have paint instead of stickers, but some thing like that. Also, no performance stuff.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

I dunno, they did paint the intake on a Civic orange once, I don't know how much more performance you can get than that.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

LOL!
Damn, Cali sure has the midwest beat! :rolleyes:

Has this show aired yet?

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

I believe its on this Sunday during the "Sunday Stew".

Earl had to die.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

ahmmmm...stew

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

Quite the post. :rolleyes:

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

Yea, I don't know if they'll ever do that. There was an episode of True Life once on MTV, it was called 'I want to be a street racer.' They pitted two street racers against each other, built the hell out of their cars & built up to a huge show down on a 1/8 mile track. Already, I was keen on how lame this was going to be, but one of the kids had a red 1g awd dsm. They built it up all bad-ass or whatever (no details, really), slapped NOS on it, and sent it out the door.

They pitted this car against a honda civic, which was built up even more so, with a full engine transplant, turbo kit, etc. So, Then they get back to this whole race at the end. 1/8 mile....awd vs fwd....who do you think won?

Pretty decent show, but could have gone way more in depth, and I really only wanted to watch it to see the dsm kill the honda in the end.

The first 5 episodes of pimp my ride were awesome; now it's starting to get 'same-old, same-old' ...still, I wish I had those 20" 'same-old, same-old' rims...

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

Mike (Raptor) and Swanny (Niterdr) were at my house in MN when that aired. It was funny because the girl went out street racing when the car was fully built and the guy in the 1g found out exactly what she had, (stupid women, the guys were PISSED OFF, when they found out she had givin everything away) then the 1g told the guys that were building his car, and they built it more. They did go into some details as to what was in the car. if they had switched vendors that were building the cars then it would have been much less of a race and more of a pounding. Apexi was the ones that built the civic (what a waste) and some honda vendor built the eclipse.
And it wasnt True life that did the show, it was on discovery because american chopper was on afterwards.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

You guys are talking about different shows cuz I've seen them both.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

No thanks.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

Did anyone watch the show tonight? Why the colors? The only think I liked about that car were probably the PSP's (alone) and the energy drink dispenser!...that would be awesome to have in my car. Everything else I didnt like.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

What a fucking joke! LOL ISH was hilarious with the seats and sitting on the ice doing the whole "west side" thing. The colors where sweet, if they where sperate on 2 diff cars. Overall I liked the run flat tires and that's about it. lol

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

The INTERIOR WAS HIDEOUS!

The red bull dispenser was nice though :)

I hate those front body kits that make the nose cone like 6 inches longer than the car really is. All and all, it was pretty RICED

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

The most hilarious thing was that the final run, the talon broke a rear axle on the start line and still kicked her ass by a considerable margin. So in essence, it was 2wd vs fwd.

She posted everything on a website the night after they were done with it. Then bragged it up at the street races with her opponent there. They just went to the website and checked out what she had.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

I was honestly expecting worse! The blue and graphics wasn't bad, just the whole car needed to be blue.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

Hah Hah...I was thinking the same thing when I saw the front bumper. It's like having a seat right in front of the car (might come in handy when you're tired ro standing...;)). I was laughing when the guy was sitting on the car made of ice and did the westside thing! Yeah, It would've looked better if the whole car was blue (that was a pretty nice blue on the car, though).

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

Those altezza's gave me an eyesore.

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

I was at my roomates parents and realised i missed it, Im sure they will reply it. Was it a turbo?

Re: Pimp My Ride
 

No, it was a black GS with (3) 5 spoke alloys, 1 spare rim, about half of a front bumper with some fucked up grill kit hanging from it.

Also, sunroof didnt close, windows didnt open... overall half of the things wrong with it have probably happened to us :)
