Pimp My Ride: MTV Series Runs Out of Gas
![]()
MTV has announced that it is canceling its auto fix-up series Pimp My Ride after three years and seven seasons.
Hosted by rapper Xzibit, Ride picks car owners under the age of 30 for much needed car makeovers. By the end of an episode, a participants’ vehicle is “pimped out” to reflect the owner’s personal interests and tastes. Versions of the series air around the world including the UK, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, and Brazil.
The final eight episodes of the US version aired in a marathon on June 9th but the series’ regular run begins on Sunday, July 22nd at 10:30pm on MTV. Pimp My Ride will be preceded by new car makeover series Trick It Out, hosted by former American Idol contestant Becky O’Donohue. Stay tuned!

Hi
I’m a mid 50’s business man who has very little time to really spend doing the things I love.
I have a 1965 DC10 that I have been meaning to have my mechanics work on for the past 6 months, it has loads of potential but I haven’t had the time/money to do the specifics of building this potential pimp aeromobile. I am sick of going to international business meetings and being laughed at by my fellow billionaires at having to arrive via ‘virgin airlines’ and really think I should have a plane to myself. I really like stripper poles, neon lights and formula one cars, if you could somehow incorporate these things into your pimping of my DC10 I would greatly appreciate it.
So please MTV Pimp my flight!!!

I’m an idiot and think posting here will get my ride pimped.
I have a millennium falcon from the starwars films. I want to cruise for ******* hard and would love it if pimp my ride would take on my vehicle.
The warp drive is stuffed but I would really love a juice bar where it is.
If the lazer guns could be replaced by 20″ chrome wheels that would be awesome.
Thanks xibit with your help the resistance will win.
