Does anyone else watch this show? This is seriously the best friggen show in the world!!!!!

I watched this on MTV the other night. It's so fun to see the students talk about thier shitty cars. Seriously! When you first see thier cars thier ready to fall apart.

In the episode I saw last night, they turned this:

into this:

It's a 1988 Hijet. Before the only thing holding it together was duct tape because all the door hinges and windows were ready to fall off. Plus it could only go 60mph.

Once the garage got thier hands on it they did amazing stuff to it. They added tvs, a mini fridge, a sofa, an amp for the students guitar, 17 inch rims, a fucking amazing paint job.

Im not sure when this show is on down in the states. But if your in Canada it should be on at 1 am on Tuesday nights. Or possibly every week night.

It needed it. Otherwise the van would flip if it went over 80 mphs or if it goes down a steep hill.

On one episode they got this guy's car that was so bad they just scrapped it and bought him a scion. Then they put GPS and computer systems on it and painted it with flames. Pretty funny seeing a scion with flames... :lol:

I watch it casually, and my biggest gripe with the show is how they do almost the EXACT same thing ot each car. Sure, there are minor differences (like the kid who got the water backpack or the girl who got the little water sculpture and the guy who got the PS2), but overall the cars are almost all exactly the same. (Besides colors and stuff)

Im personally not a fan of Pimp my Ride, they make west coast customs seem more incredible then it really is. plus they never do any engine work on any of the cars on that show.

Overhaulin' on TLC is much better... first they get the powertrain of the car back up and running at optimum performance, then they restore the interior and exterior in a classy way, not all gauche like MTV does it (OMG RIMS!!!!loneoen).

Yeah, gimme four mags and Bridgestone tires and Im done with that for awhile.

Im far more interested in the pwnage powa of my ride than the cop attraction factor.

It's a decent show, I'll watch it if it's on. However, MTV has to lose money on that show, they put like 50 grand+ into each car.

Oh, and Xzibit, you can come visit my house ktxhla~

I watch it on occassion. MTV = BET 2 or the White Girl Music Television Network. MTV kills brain cells. Pimp My Ride is a good show though and Real World is pretty good but dont shove any of that Jessica Simpson shit down my throat.

Ever notice how the shop they work in has huge ass posters of companies of products they use in the show? And ever notice how many times they say each product name and the company who makes it? They get money from those companies. The whole show is a commercial for those products.

I've seen the show and I think that the cars look even worse after they are finished with all of the stupid color and all of the useless stuff they put in the car.

that show is utter crap IMO. i agree with trig that Overhaulin' is something i might actualy have done to a car i had. but if i got "my ride Pimped" i'd sell it to some idiot rich kid for a whole ton.

They added a flamethrower to a car once but when the shop owner saw it he got pissed and they had to remove it.
