Rapper Vanilla Ice Reveals How He Ended Up With Eddie Guerrero’s Trademark Lowrider Car

There are many things we see on television that we want to get our hands on in real life. Whether it be some sci-fi weapon or a simple car that belongs to our favorite star, most of the fans do want to own those things at least once in real life. Rapper Vanilla Ice is no exception to this category of fans. At one point in our lives as WWE fans, we all loved late WWE star Eddie Guerrero’s trademark orange color lowrider.

While many wished to have it, Ice found a way to finally own that car. Here are the accounts of how Vanilla Ice ended up with the Latino Heat‘s lowrider.

How did Vanilla Ice get his hands on Eddie Guerrero’s car?

In a video posted by the rapper himself, he was seen explaining to vintage car enthusiasts about the incident where he bought this car. He stated that he was contacted by a person who owned Guerrero’s lowrider. As a person who was not aware of the value of the car and the pop culture significance the car had, he did not know what price he should expect to pay.

Apart from that, the previous owner had spent $30,000 on it and just wanted to get rid of it. Ice decided to downplay the price. He arranged for a fake phone call with a friend and told the owner of the car that the best he could do was $15,000.

As the owner wanted to get rid of it, they agreed. Ice used one of the best yet cheapest tricks in the books to seal a deal that is worth millions. As for now, the car stands in his garage, shining along with the former champion’s photos and memorabilia.

WWE’s partnership with Slim Jims is something that is almost decades old. So when they renewed their partnership ahead of the 2023 SummerSlam, they unveiled the new Slim Jim Car. While on the surface is just a Nissan Z, its features are something that everyone admires. The exterior of the car is fiery bright orange, similar to that of the brand’s identity.

But that’s not all. The interior has special Easter eggs such as the numbers 69 and 420 along with the Long Boi Gang emblem. Also, it has a dedicated Slim Jim holder for obviously storing Slim Jims. The car has seen such massive popularity amongst fans that it got stolen at one point, and no, it was not an elaborated storyline put forward by WWE. But do you think the Slim Jim car will attain a similar cult status as Eddie Guerrero’s Lowrider? What do you make of the rapper’s story of owning the iconic car?
