Pimp My Ride is a real-time world simulation centered on the automotive lifestyle. Players live out their personal automotive fantasies: from stock to custom, from foreign to domestic, from luxury to exotic, from imports to low riders. Customize your car, get the girl, live the life of Bling! Turn that beater into the hottest whip on the streets and redline your way as you race others for points, prestige and pink-slips. Style counts so spend your money wisely at the PMR custom shops littered throughout the city. Wheels and treads, phat paint, tricked out electronics, bass pumping audio systems, hydraulics… its all yours for the taking at MTV’s Dream Machines.

Player’s join free at MTV’s Kar Klub. First stop is a meet and greet with Xzibit of PMR who will guide you on your way to car custom heaven. Sign up and get your first ride. OK, it’s a hooptie, but soon you could be riding and racing in one of the coolest customs this side of the show. It’s all up to you.

First things first…cruise the streets, meet the peeps and discover the array of PMR shops where you can get the stuff you're going to need to become a “playa” in this world. So what’s it going to be…down by the beach or over in the inland empire? You’ll want to find a garage to call home base. It’s here that you can do the work on the car that will turn it from a broken down beater to a pimped out masterpiece. We have it all: body shops, paint, sound, performance, hydraulics, electronics, and your plain old used car lot where a gem might just be hiding. But it’s going to take some cash to fit out the coolest ride in town. No problem, earn it or buy some MTV$ and get there quicker. It’s up to you.

The ultimate? Well that’s going to take a visit to West Coast Customs where Mad Mike and his team will pimp your ride to the max.

Our world is Southern California, from the Ocean to Riverside County. The world includes everything you’d expect to deliver for a car enthusiast’s wet dream: open roads, speedways, drag strips and hip threads where player’s get to customize themselves as well as their rides. Nothings worse than stepping out of a kool kustom in a pair of Levis’ and Fruit of the Looms. Nah… it’s the lifestyle we’re talking about. So get yourself into some of the hippest shops this side of Melrose where you can get some black khakis and boots. It’s not just about the cars. It’s about living the life: prestige, reputation, pride, music and look. Isn’t that what it’s all about?
