Ride Owner: Kiearah. 22 Year Old Female. Owner's Ride: 1991 Ford Escort. Kiearah's 1991 Ford Escort looks more like an art project than a reliable mode of transportation. After all, her boyfriend had a little too much fun spray painting her non-existent hub caps and tires after taking out most of the dashboard. In addition, the body of the car is all beat up after a stray shopping cart decided to tango with her car. X can't help but laugh at Kiearah's makeshift AC, which is a house fan plugged into a power converter mounted on the dashboard. It is clear the Escort needs an escort to West Coast Customs. Kiearah teaches students to dance hip hop and she wants to become a lead singer in a band. She deserves a better car. Xzibit is about to pimp her ride.

Ride Owner: Alice. 20 Year Old Female. Owner's Ride: 1985 Chevy Suburban. Alice's Chevy Suburban could be easily mistaken for a mobile junk yard. While most Suburbans sport roomy passenger seating, Alice's ride is filled with tires suited for monster trucks. No wonder Alice and her friends are embarrassed to cruise in this ride.

Ride Owner: Erin. 22 Year Old Female. Owner's Ride: 1987 Chevy Blazer. Erin's 1987 Chevy Blazer is far from blazin' these days. The monster of a ride looks like a monster with dents galore, chipping paint and Erin even has to use a screwdriver to open the doors! Erin wants a ride that represents her hardworking and determined personality, not a hunk of junk. After all, she bought this ride with her own money when she was only 16 years-old, and since then, has sunk about 10G's into the Blazer. This ride is in need of some serious help, and fast.

Ride Owner: Josh. Male. Owner's Ride: 1988 Acura Legend. Josh's 1988 Acura Legend is far from legendary--it barely qualifies as a vehicle when we first meet him. A chain and padlock hold down the hood and the electrical wiring is so confused, the windshield wipers go off every time Josh honks his horn. Josh teaches inner-city kids, so he needs a ride that they can respect and one that shows the kids that decent, hardworking people are paid back in life. Xzibit is about to pimp his ride.

Ride Owner: Quoc-viet. Male. Owner's Ride: 1989 Nissan 240 SX Quoc-Viet had good intentions when he tried to customize his 1989 Nissan 240SX. While buying an assortment of custom body parts for his ride had seemed like a good idea, actually installing the parts was another problem. The double-sided tape holding together the body kit has begun to lose its grip. In place of the passenger's seat, there's a radiator fan, headlights, gaming controllers, and more random stuff that has no business being there. Despite the fact that Quoc-Viet's rearview mirror is adorned with lucky charms, the car is a disappointment to his girlfriend and family. Luckily, the crew is ready to transform this junk pile into the car of his gaming dreams. Xzibit is about to pimp his ride.

Ride Owner: West. 19 Year Old Male. Owner's Ride: 1963 Ford Fairlane. Owner's New Ride: 2005 Toyota 4runner. West's 41-year-old ride is over twice his age, but no one is sure how much longer this Ford Fairlane is going to ride on. With nothing but tape holding it together in places, West may have to begin to look for a new whip, unless the guys at West Coast Customs get on the job, and quick. When Xzibit rolls on into the garage with the Fairlane, the boys can't believe their eyes. This ride is definitely a classic, but not exactly practical for a 19-year-old guy about to start college. Seeing that West wants to go to college to become a mechanic, the WCC guys decide to leave the Fairlane just as it is for him to one day fix up himself with his future mechanic skills. West still needs a ride though, and no one leaves West Coast Customs without a smile on their face, and an ultra-hot ride. X gets on the horn, and before we can say "pimped out ride," a brand new, 2005 Toyota 4Runner pulls into the garage. Now the WCC boys have something they can work with. Xzibit is about to pimp his new ride.
