Basketball icon Shaquille O'Neal recently had his Lucid Air sedan transformed into a coupe. Renowned for their creative car modifications, West Coast Customs executed the conversion while maintaining a stock-like appearance for the two-door Air.
Shaq's bespoke car includes:
- Aftermarket wheels
- "Diesel" insignia on the front trim, nodding to his DJ persona
At 7'1" and 325 pounds, Shaq needs more room than the typical driver. While the Lucid Air sedan offers 45.4 inches of front legroom, the basketball legend sought further customization for a comfortable fit.
West Coast Customs, veterans in altering vehicle body styles, took a distinct approach with Shaq's Lucid. Previously, they transformed a Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT into a minivan for Mark Zuckerberg. The goal remains the same: more space. Shaq’s Lucid features:
- Superman logos
- Custom paint matching his Rolls-Royce Cullinan
The added "Diesel" emblem adds a humorous twist, contrasting with the electric nature of the Lucid Air.
Despite West Coast Customs’ reputation for flamboyant designs, Shaq’s Lucid remains subtly stylish. Except for the vast wheels, the car looks as if it could have come straight from the Lucid production line. Without plans for a coupe version, the unique design may inspire Lucid to explore this configuration.
The specific model of Shaq's modified Lucid is unknown, though it’s likely a powerful dual-motor all-wheel-drive variant providing at least 620 horsepower. This guarantees Shaq both performance and comfort wrapped in a spacious package.
In summary, Shaquille O’Neal's Lucid Air coupe illustrates West Coast Customs' ability to blend style and functionality, crafting a seamless yet bold automotive masterpiece.
