MTV’s “Pimp My Ride” might just be one of the most iconic reality TV shows of the 2000s. Who could forget some of the crazy and downright ridiculous transformations that used to take place on the show? Yet despite the show’s popularity, rapper and host Xzibit left the series after six seasons because MTV refused to pay him a million dollars for a sponsored episode with the Fantastic Four franchise, according to the British newspaper Metro.
Suggested Reading
Even though Mr. X to the Z didn’t feel like his time on the show was valued enough by the MTV producers, there’s no denying just how funny he was as a host, reacting to the most outrageous car transformations. So, we’ve decided to appreciate the show by going down memory lane and looking back on some of these transformed whips.
Mobile CAT Scan
To start this list off, one of the craziest transformations on “Pimp My Ride” has to be the mechanics at West Coast Customs putting a CAT Scan at the back of this travelling Nurse’s car. Like…come on.
Carcuzzi
Now, have you ever been driving and thought to yourself, “It’d be nice to use the hot tub in the back of my car?” Didn’t think so, but maybe this driver got a lot of use out of his carcuzzi.
Grand Piano

Forget about your passengers, and take inspiration from this transformation by dumping a baby grand piano in the back of your van.
Slot Machine

Not only was a piano placed into this driver’s van, but a slot machine was put on the side. And get this: The car would not open unless he won against the machine. Luck be a lady to this man!
Perfect For Date Night

Need a location for your date night? “Pimp My Ride’s” got you covered by installing a chocolate fountain with a set of candles in the back of your whip. Is this a way to set the mood or is it a red flag?
Skate Park in a Van

There’s no need to go to the skate park when the skate park is in the back of your van. Talk about an unforgettable entrance!
Luxury Chandelier
They turned this driver’s car from trash to luxury by installing a chandelier in the ceiling. Is it practical? Absolutely not. But it’s kind of cool…right?
Snow Cone Machine
If this driver ever needs an emergency snow cone machine, she is lucky that “Pimp My Ride” put one in her trunk, but she can forget about carrying groceries!
BBQ In The Trunk

Equipped with a George Foreman grill and a bar, this ride is the perfect car for a road trip. Just make sure you don’t bring any luggage because there is no space.
Popcorn Machine

Cinema food is expensive, so one way to save your coins is by installing a popcorn machine in your car.
Custom Pool Table

For this car, the West Coast Customs mechanics installed a custom-made pool table, because…why not?
Beach Binoculars

This driver should be able to see everything with the binoculars that they attached to her car.
A Projector Screen In The Trunk
Xzibit said it himself: This 30-foot projector screen is “ridiculous and unnecessary.” But hey, if the driver likes it, we love it.
