Unique Whips on Speed TV!

Not sure if anyone has seen previews of this show, but it starts in about 30 mins (9pm EST) on Speed TV/ The Speed Channel.

It's pretty much like Pimp My Ride, but more on the higher end of things. It's a lot of celebs vehicles based right on Long Island in NY.

BTW: The installer, Darrell, did the stereo in my Cadillac .

Ah. The 2 door?

I think I saw a few of their cars in a show on MTV. I don't care for that style, but the cars were tasteful.

It was an OK show (Im always up for almost anything auto related). But it seemed more biased towards "name dropping" than actual technical, indepth info.

Thanks for the heads up Sean, it was a pretty entertaining show. Castro reminds me of the next Paul Teutul Sr. I see they stole your idea with color matching rims on that H2

"Hi, my name is Castro. I like to rip off already successful shows by doing ALMOST exactly the same thing, over again. I just took Paul Sr's attitutude and melded it with Pimp my ride to create a show of my own, but it's very unique. It even says so in the name".
This oughta be interesting for about an episodr or 2

This show is just more of the same 'ol urban gaudiness ghetto junk - 26" rims, 10 DVD screens, rear cameras, 3 ovulating groupies waiting in the back seat. There's no creativity, just slight variations everytime on the same standard issue gangbanger upgrades.
