I wonder why They always put skateboard ramps on the roofs of their pimped out vans, must have small skateboards.

Chrome spinner wheels look crass on any car but more so on one dechromed so that all else is pitch black. But a real pimp mobile needs a loud paint colour and a clashing interior, with loads of hi-tech - don't you think?



Yes los angeles, I'm thinking some kind of faux leopard skin interior is pretty much manditory

Nice camper vans!

Friends dad has just got hold of a Ford Freda, I think he's borrowing it to bling down to LeMans this year!

Best bit is being allowed to join Bongo Fury!

I love looking at pictures of taxis & buses from India, Pakistan, Southeast Asia, Central and South America,Etc. The driver/owners turn them into shrines usually religious but not always. They are very personalized and there can be so much detail. Talk about pride in ownership! And no I don't think that that makes it a pimpmobile, I generally don't have a problem with pimp mobiles, ricers or chavmobiles as I view it as a form of art or personalization. Just get sick of the 18 year olds that put a spoiler on the back of an under powered FWD econobox and think it's the fastest thing on earth.

To me, there's nothing cool about being a pimp, so you must be stuck in the '70s, and you must drive one of these:


Stinger Neo-classic


Zimmer Golden Spirit


Destiny Convertible


Baci Roadster


Clenet Series I


Diamante Classic


Gatsby Cabriolet


Corsair Dusenberg replica (! )


Excalibur Phaeton


Johnson Phantom T-Top Coupe


Sunrise Classic Coupe


Sparks Rumble Seat Roadster


Stutz Blackhawk


Cadillac Opera


Tiffany Classic Coupe



All together now - "Only In America"

I think the above group of cars might be closer to 1970's Hollywood producer than pimp.
