Love sports cars, elises, westfields, radicals etc, but for some reason I am really attracted to blinged out pimp cars as well. I sit there drinking coffee with my girlfriend in a local cafe, and a ML/X5/5 series/A8 black, tinted windows lowered, debadged, big wheels, cruises past and I look at it and think, I want one.

I know that little kids and chavs/criminals will give you respect, and most adults will think i'm a drug dealer or wannabe drug dealer, but still I really really want one.

Any one else like "Pimped" rides, or actually have one. Please bear in mind I am not talking about novas, body kits, loud sound systems, big exhuasts etc, just a evil looking, low riding "gangstas" car.

I believe 'whip' is the monicker you are looking for.

i find it cool too, but only the car not the pimp or drug dealer inside. i am looking at getting a black BMW530i sports with tinted windows, although i don't think that i will be investing in the spinning wheels or neon light. I prefer the term FBI car (like the ones in GTA Vice City)

I don't know how to post pictures, but the Nissan Cedric can be very nice when done properly. Sold mine a couple of years back when I gave up selling crack to the kids.

Stay in school kids!

Here is a good example of one, two years older than mine was, but pretty similar overall.

while walloping down the M60 in pwig's 7-series a few months ago we overtook a previous (to the latest) model 7-series (circa 1998 vintage) rolling on 20" multispoke alpina alloys in silver with black privacy glass and lowered...it looked awesome!

It does look a bit mean

But with a name like Cedric...it kind of takes the sharpness off it.

Mine was an import, so it was a Cedric. I think the UK car was called a Gloria though, I'm not sure whether that's better or worse than a Cedric

Very similar lights on them, but it's definately a Cedric.

I also have a thing for big pimped out luxury cars, not really into the SUV ones though.
S class, 7er, A8 etc, though
