Pimp My Ride is based on the MTV series Pimp My Ride , where people have their cars modified. This involves adding features like nitrous, new rims, tinted windows, and vinyls outside, as well as installing items like new seats, TVs, music players, and games consoles inside.
You start with Xzibit's car in the five borough area of Pimp City. You can participate in mini-games to earn money and buy your own car. Once you have pimped your ride, you'll have a host, Xzibit, who will help you. After completing your car's modifications, you'll get to drive it around Pimp City, which turns into a free-roaming racer. You can then earn money and complete challenges and races to progress through the game.
