Did you ever dream of owning a vehicle “pimped” by Xzibit and the folks at West Coast Customs? Now, you can live out that fantasy by purchasing a car featured on MTV’s hit show Pimp My Ride.
A Craigslist ad for the San Francisco Bay area is currently attempting to sell a 1990 Toyota Celica that was customized as part of the show. Although the car isn’t in the best shape, the owner is trying to get $3,000 for the somewhat famous ride.
“1990 Toyota Celica was on the show pimp my ride,” the ad reads. “[I] have a extra set of wheels to go with the car if price is agreeable runs drives needs new bushing drives fine city shakes a little when you get on the highway, Will be cleaned more.”
Pimp My Ride was a phenomenon during its run in the mid-2000s, but the show has largely been reduced to a meme. The often impractical customization, such as a fully functional Jacuzzi being added to a van, turned the series into an easy target for mockery and a source of annoyance for Xzibit.
The person behind the Craigslist ad is not the first to sell a car from the show. One man sold his vehicle, valued at $500 before the customization, for $18,000. The latest person to try this likely won’t be so fortunate and will probably be lucky to get the $3,000 asking price.

3000 for a beat up celica?? Good luck. They obviously didn’t take of it. Looks like anything worth value has been taken out too.
Did they forget to ‘pimp’ it up?

Prob some ratchet fuck like you, will end up buying it.
