Nate's Ford Econoline (1985)
Formerly a Municipal Van, turned into a limousine for the band that the owner played for. The hot tub in the rear added so much weight when filled with water that an air suspension system was installed on the rear axle to support it.
This pimped vehicle is seen on the intro episode of "Where are they now?".
Sara's Chevrolet S-10 (1988)
An 8 Ball Pool table was mounted on the back of the truck, a limousine divider was installed on the back window to make the pool table playable in all angles.

Brooke's Chevrolet Cavalier Convertible (1991)
A digital projector was mounted on the trunk lid that could pivot so that the projector faced forward and could turn any wall into a drive-in movie theater. A popcorn maker was also installed in the center console and individual DVD players were also stuffed into the headrests so the rear passengers could each watch their own movie.
Tom's Chevrolet Caprice (1996)
This was a former Police car.
Since Tom is a skateboarder, WCC equips the Caprice with grind rail from the rear bumper, with Impala-like body kits, custom gold paint, and super hi-beam lights inside the trunk.

Jessica's AMC Pacer (1976)
The owner of the vehicle was studying to become a nutritionist. The car was fitted with a huge cloth sunroof, a rear wing with a solar panel to power the electronics, and a juicer in the trunk. The entire interior of the car was retrofitted with yellow shag carpeting; when he saw it Xzibit promptly joked, "Who killed Big Bird?"
This car was infested with rat droppings; indeed, the mechanics found a live rat inside the car. Consequentially, Xzibit's gift to the car's owner was a cat, which Jessica named "Pacer".
At the end it says; "no rats were harmed in the pimpin' of this ride"
Josh's Toyota Corolla (2003)
The car had suffered a lot of superficial body damage before it was "pimped". The reverse gear was also broken, which WCC had repaired. Intriguing features of this car included four liquid crystal displays mounted in the left and right of both front and rear bumpers.
Since being pimped, Josh wrecked the car, as he brought it to the "Where are They Now?" episode sans hood. Xzibit mockingly told Josh that they do not do Re-Pimps. Xzibit also revealed that, 15 minutes after giving Josh his rental car—MTV gives rental cars to the owners whose cars are being pimped—he also wrecked his rental car (a Chevrolet Malibu).
Heather's Chevrolet C10 (1986)
This truck was "pimped" so that the entire truck bed could come out at an angle. Also, the driver's seat included a special raise and lower feature, as Heather (a very short female) had difficulty seeing out the back.
The truck had its brakes nearly completely gone (which emits a very loud screeching sound); the show featured the truck hitting an egg (before the brakes were fixed), then rerunning the same stunt with fixed brakes, where the egg was not hit.
The truck also had, for proper weight, cow manure, and hoes (Xzibit frequently told the audience during this episode that the "hoes" were of the gardening kind, not the other kind) in the truck bed before being "pimped".
The electronics in the back of her truck cost more than US$30,000.
Tin's Dodge Caravan (1988)
Since the owner was a full-time student who often slept in his car, the van was installed with a custom fully reclining Maybach-style seat positioned between two waterfalls. It also included a 17-inch LCD flip monitor and a built-in DVD player. Also included was a built-in badminton net with a shuttlecock launcher. In addition, Tin was given a laptop with wireless internet, a wireless keyboard and a USB compatible microscope.
Alex's Chevrolet Chevelle Convertible (1968)
An all-new small-block Chevy V8 engine was installed in the car in order to live up to its reputation as a muscle car. Also, since the driver practiced magic, it also had its sound system concealed, only to be revealed by a secret incantation.
A musical horn
Alex revealed on the "Where are They Now?" episode that he wrecked the car the first day he got it back.
Rashae's Ford Taurus (1989)
This car was fitted with memory foam seats for the comfort of the driver, and since the owner had aspirations to be a Hollywood stuntwoman, the trunk was fitted with a professional stunt cushion.
The Taurus's front door hinges were altered to swing upward, Lamborghini-style, and the rear doors opened horizontally without hinges.
Jake's Buick Century (1986)
The WCC crew removed the backseats and replaced it with the MTX Audio JackHammer, a 22-inch subwoofer weighing 369 pounds. A decibel meter was installed in the dash to alert Jake to keep it down. Uniquely, due to wanting a retro 1950s nature for the car, this would perhaps be the only car in Pimp My Ride's history to have flat black paint, and alloys replaced with regular steel wheels, whitewalls, and hubcaps.
The car was once Jake's grandmother's, whom was a chain smoker. So many cigarette butts were found in the car, Xzibit quipped, "Grandma's lungs must be as black as I am."
During the filming of this episode, Big Dane told Jake to "Be more excited, or I will stomp you."
Cristi's Chevrolet Panel Truck (1957)
The owner was of Italian descent. The WCC crew installed a copy of Michelangelo's famous mural painting The Creation of Adam on the ceiling of the truck.
Prior to "pimping", the van had a large bullet hole through the passenger's side windshield.




= Season 5 (2006)

The Thing (known as the VW 181 in other markets) was equipped with a faux alligator and snakeskin interior.
The car was equipped with a custom terrarium.
The GAS crew equipped it with a 200-horsepower turbo engine.
Monique's Mitsubishi Galant (1994)
The Galant was painted sky blue with a white sun on the hood and doors. The GAS crew swapped the rear seat for a chaise longue, featuring 6 LCD monitors and a laptop that could be pulled out.
One of the more notable features was a scrolling LED marquee installed on which Monique could display her spoken word poetry.
Donte's Ford Econoline Ice Cream Truck (1976)
This was the first actual business vehicle to be pimped, which means Donte could receive a tax deduction if he gets taxed for everything put into it.
The truck was painted sapphire blue with icicles on the side. Ice cream-related features included a touch screen order system, a robotic arm which can dispense the ice cream to the customer at a kid level, and a full stock of ice cream.
He still sells ice cream in the north side of Long Beach, California.
The GAS crew found a family of eight mice in this van when stripping it.
According to Mad Mike, the van was discreetly replaced for this reason.
Jason's Toyota T100 (1994)
Having been completely stripped of all parts and stolen, only the actual frame and cabin remained (he still can drive it because California state law says that in order to drive a car, it must have working headlights, which it has). After putting new parts on the car (the only time in the series things were put on the car instead of taking them off before pimping), the car was painted in a camouflage style purple, white, grey, and black, nicknamed "glamoflage" (sticking out instead of blending in as camouflage does). The seats had a layer of kevlar added. Other than a complete "pimping" of his car, Jason also received a Yamaha Raptor 350 All Terrain Vehicle that was also pimped. The GAS crew put two LCD monitors and a DVD player on the ATV.
Joe's Cadillac Sedan DeVille Limousine (1988)
Xzibit was stopped by a LASD policeman while driving the car to the GAS garage.
Having replaced the divider with a 50-inch plasma monitor, a TubeRunners custom Pneumatic Tube system was installed so the passengers could communicate with the driver.
A rumble seat was installed in the trunk, with a 27-inch LCD TV that flipped up from the roof. Joe was warned not to drive the limo with anyone sitting back there.
Shawna's Toyota Celica (1990)
Given mods like Lambo-style scissor doors, bodykit, outrageous paint scheme, and other related modifications.
Installed in the trunk was an Apple PowerBook laptop with 2 terabytes of hard drive space, via external hard drives. It could also be controlled with a 7-inch touch screen in the front.
In the console, GAS gave Shawna an iPod Nano and a Palm Treo cell phone, which Shawna did not know how to use, as she had never owned a computer or a cell phone.
Tad's Land Rover Range Rover (1989)
Xzibit finds the graphics on the SUV and he does not know what kind of graphics these are.
The Range Rover was given an orange paint job with a white stripe. In the rear a water bed and water machine were installed. On the roof GAS installed a satellite dish which could connect to the internet from anywhere in the world.
This pimped vehicle is seen on the intro episode of "Where are they now?".
Gerald's Chevrolet Monte Carlo (1978)
Gerald's Monte Carlo was given the Southern "Box" treatment. It was painted black with leopard flames on the front.
The car was given 24-inch spinners, which raised it by 8 inches. This is a GAS record for the largest rims installed on a car.
Ellyn's Ford Contour (1996)

The GAS crew equips her car with green and orange tear graphics and the muffler-like salmon cannon in order to prevent a bear from attacking her car again.

In addition, Tyler received tickets to the 2006 Oakland Raiders season opener, as well as a Randy Moss NFL jersey.
Tyler's grandfather had won this car playing poker and had given it to him.
Lawanna's Volkswagen Bug (1968)
Car's body parts placed with the Porsche and Ferrari body kits by the GAS crew.
The car's theme was "Hair Force One". This is due to the fact that Lawanna was a hair stylist who was about to enter the Air Force. In the trunk in the car's front was installed a sink with shampoo and conditioner dispensers, as well as waterproof speakers and an iPod nano. Inside the car was a high-power hair dryer which got air via a scoop on the car's roof.
The cockpit featured airplane-style gauges and a flight navigation system. Xzibit also gave her a plane toy that includes flight lessons in order to fly a real plane.
Josh's Chevrolet K5 Blazer (1987)
The snowboarder's ride was given an RC car-style paint job, 6 subwoofers in the trunk, and a 60-inch flip-up LCD monitor in the rear.
Presumably inspired by Mad Magazine's Pimp My Ride parody, the truck received diamond-plate mud flaps with 7-inch monitors installed in them.
Josh also received a new Burton snowboard with a 7-inch monitor built-in.
Mary's Nissan Pulsar (1988) (replaced with a new Ford Mustang GT (2006)
Due to the high temperatures the engine was giving off to the cockpit, Xzibit replaced the Pulsar with a brand-new Ford Mustang GT to be pimped.
This is only the third time in the series history, and the first time using GAS as the customizer, that the vehicle was replaced rather than pimped.
The new Mustang GT was painted bright green with chrome on the front end. The interior featured seventeen monitors between the pillars, sun visors, dashboard, and head rests. In the trunk were three additional monitors, including a 20-inch monitor that could pop out, tilt, and spin around. This is a Pimp My Ride record for most monitors installed (twenty total).




= Season 6 (2007)

"Where are They Now?" Episode
Xzibit revisited the pimped cars of "Big" Ron (Cadillac El Dorado), Donte (Ford Econoline Ice Cream Truck), Josh (Toyota Corolla), Nile (Cadillac DeVille), Ryan (VW Bus), Christine (Honda Civic), and Alex (Chevrolet Chevelle).
Two of the cars have since been wrecked: Josh's Corolla (he also totaled the rental car they gave him) and Alex's Chevelle (which was totaled the first day he got it).

Mike's Grumman Kurbmaster Wonder Bread Truck (1978)
Mike had bought the van from the Wonder Bread company for US$300 when they retired it from their fleet.
Mike had done a pimping job on his own car. The back of his car contained a chandelier, a couch, a surfboard, a TV, and a Super NES; making it the first car on the show that had a video game system in the car before it was pimped.
Mad Mike hooked up two MTX Audio JackHammers into the car.
Xzibit said the Super NES was what he thought was the first Nintendo, it was actually the second.
Kristoffer's Chevrolet Impala SS (1965)
This show featured California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.
It was equipped with GM's 6.6 liter Duramax turbodiesel, mated with an Allison Transmission, and intended to run on biodiesel. Kristoffer also received a 1-year supply of fuel from James Jones of Hastings Nebraska.
The show was working in correlation with MTV's Break the Addiction campaign.
The GAS crew also equipped the car with hemp covered seats, which prompted Schwarzenegger to remind the crew that hemp was illegal in California.
Spechelle's Mercedes-Benz 300SD (1981)
GAS paints the car pink with a reddish-pink symbol on the front, they took the Mercedes symbol off and made a big "S" made out of diamonds (actually rhinestones). Monitors were put in all of the head rests (Facing forward for some strange reason, making it so people in the front seats would have to turn their head around to watch them). Also, it included fake beaver skin seats. At the end they gave her custom-made pink roller skates.
GAS crew equips with a special "crunk trunk", which opens and closes repeatedly. However, this show features GAS crew Jason, placing his arm on an open trunk. Mad Mike then tests it out, and Jason's arm becomes "amputated". Jason says that it's "only a flesh wound". The blood nearly stained the car. (intended to be a spoof of the Black Knight scene from Monty Python and the Holy Grail.)
After the placing of the beaver fur on the seats it says "no rabbits were harmed or pimped during the making of this episode"
The forward-facing headrest monitors were dubbed "Extreme Hatervision" by Mad Mike and Xzibit.
Robert's Chevrolet Van (1984)
Robert's grandparents won this van back in 1984 in Las Vegas. It was already pimped out with graphics of Las Vegas resorts from the time. (Robert asked MTV to "repimp" his ride.)
The GAS crew equips with a slot machine in order to open the sliding door, the owner must get a jackpot. A craps table floor and a keyboard piano with a roulette table built inside of a baby grand piano replica were installed as well.
Wayne Newton was also featured in this episode.
Laila's Plymouth Grand Voyager Expresso (1998)
The van was equipped with a special "Vroom Box" which enabled the van to sound like other different types of "Supercars" including a Ford GT and an Aston-Martin Vanquish. Due to safety reasons, this feature was removed from the van when it was given back to the owner.
After exchanging hands multiple times, The van was purchased by automotive YouTuber Freddy "Tavarish" Hernandez for $850 in late 2019, in poor condition, and it was restored back to its original condition when it was featured on the show. It was later found that a 1999 Grand Voyager (originally thought to have been a Dodge Grand Caravan) had replaced the original 1998 model, which was in very poor condition when it was evaluated by the GAS crew; something that wasn't fully disclosed in the episode. When the van was fully restored, Tavarish gave the van to fellow YouTuber Tyler Hoover of Hoovie's Garage as a "surprise" Christmas present. In January 2020, the van was loaned to the Midwest Dream Car Collection in Manhattan, Kansas for exhibition. It was reclaimed by Hoover in February 2021 following the lapsing of the one-year loan period. The van was bought back by Hernandez in 2022 who loaned it to Petersen Automotive Museum.
Seth's Nissan Maxima (1989)
Because of his love of both Transformers and all kinds of candy, his car's pimping includes a "Transforming" back seat that slides open to reveal the sound system and monitors, and a cotton candy machine in the trunk.
Jonathan's Honda CRX (1991)
In honor of Jonathan's love of comic books (and the Fantastic Four in particular) and surfing, the car was painted with "Silver Surfer" chrome, and the interior done up with Fantastic Four accents, including a comic keeper replacing the glove box (loaded with a copy of Fantastic Four #48—the issue in which the Silver Surfer premiered—valued at US$4000) and a rear A/V/Xbox setup inspired by The Thing. He was also presented with a custom "Silver Surfer" surfboard. (They actually gave him a copy of Fantastic Four #50, you can tell by simply watching the episode and looking at the cover of the comic, #50 is not the first appearance of Silver Surfer and that comic is not likely to be worth $4,000 due to condition and lack of grading).
Due to being unavailable to film this episode, Xzibit's hosting duties were filled in by rapper Chamillionaire, who—according to the episode—used to drive a CRX as his work vehicle, transporting urine samples from doctors' offices to the testing facility. He managed to pay homage to his biggest hit, "Ridin'" and the "Weird Al" Yankovic parody of it, "White & Nerdy": Chamillionaire: (to Jonathan) "So you really are ridin' dirty". Jonathan: "Yeah, I'm...or white and nerdy." (Chamillionaire laughs hysterically.)
Vanessa's Ford Festiva L (1991)
Nicknamed "Zippy" by the owner
Vanessa's car has a nitrous tank installed.

David's Ford Econoline (1972)
Since he was running a family dog grooming business, the back of his van got the ultimate grooming station with a new bathtub and a drying cage with a 32-inch monitor so the dogs can watch TV while they get dried off.
They also hooked him up with a slide-out 42-inch monitor, a black and blue paint job with cage graphics because he wanted to become a cage fighter.
GAS also gave him a hot dog maker in his dash when he gets hungry.
Will's Jeep Grand Wagoneer (1987)
As he was a handyman, the car included such storage devices as a rotating turntable in the back and slots inside the window to hold all his tools.
Esmerelda's Pontiac Sunbird (1991)
Esmerelda really likes the beach, so she had a Hawaiian Tiki god painted on the hood, and tiki gods stitched into the leather seats.
In the trunk, a snow cone maker was installed, along with 2x150w Genesis waterproof subwoofers.
GAS installed a mood control gadget: angry (smoke), sad (light washers), flirty (wolf whistle), happy (flashing internal lights), and a rollerbar with high powered binoculars mounted on it.
Wheels and tires: 18 Tezzen Sonic alloys, Pirelli P-Zero tires.
Justin's Toyota RAV4 (1997)
