Are you an automotive designer? If not, then it’s time to call for one. It’s rare for Shaq not to fulfill his promises. Take completing his education because of a promise to his mother for example. So, if he hasn’t yet fulfilled one, it means he eventually will. With that in mind, the Big Aristotle has recently promised a big prize for a fan who can complete one unique task. He has already teamed up with his favorite automotive dealers and put forth the challenge.

As per the newest project, Effortless Motors needs to find fans who can create the best custom color for a car. And the best part? Whoever comes up with the best design will get to keep the car for an entire week. That’s a lot to keep up with. However, it’s notable that the company hasn’t disappointed the Lakers legend yet.

“I want you and the fans to design me a two-door Lambo truck. A two-door Lambo truck. And whatever fan lets you design it the best, I’ll let them borrow it for a week,” O’Neal promised. Participating in this competition is quite easy with four steps. “Here’s how to enter: 1️⃣ Follow us 2️⃣ Tag 5 friends in the comments 3️⃣ Repost this to your story to enter 4️⃣ DM us after to get started!” mentioned Effortless Motors on the caption with other details.

This challenge might be prompted by his recent loss to 2 Chainz for the best-designed car. After all, Shaq’s special demand is to find a unique design for his vehicle. But wait, he has a few more specific demands, and the car design needs to follow them.

After adding three Cybertrucks to his collection, he might be looking for something new and refreshing. Hence, he’s requesting a strong focus on the car’s exterior. And that’s the fans’ job. He also hinted that his two favorite colors are black and burgundy. Furthermore, he wants a two-door URUS, which left the Effortless Motors team a bit puzzled, as these cars are typically four-door vehicles.

Do you think the team will be able to pull this off? And let’s not forget that time is tight. This car needs to be ready before the playoffs. And this is nothing new for the seven-footer. Shaq has made similar promises in the past to his former teammates.

What does Shaquille O’Neal owe Dwyane Wade and Udonis Haslem?

His former teammates Dwyane Wade and Udonis Haslem even called out O’Neal for not keeping his word. Unbelievable right? As they recalled on the OG’s podcast, Shaquille O’Neal had motivated them with a promise to buy them Bentleys if they worked harder for the championship game. “But we got that chip though. Big fella did us right, he do owe us the Bentleys,” Wade said.

They won the title, as we all know. But here’s the thing, O’Neal must have forgotten to buy them the said Bentleys or he just joked about it to motivate them. Wade and Haslem laughed as they called out the Big Aristotle.

“The man told me and Dwyane if we win our first championship, he said, ‘If we win this title, I’mma buy y’all Bentleys. The man ain’t bought us Bentleys. We was motivated as hell, but what me and Dwyane did was go buy our own Bentleys…We believed, we was young, we ain’t know no damn better. He said, ‘What? Bentley? Sh-t let’s go,” Haslem recalled.

It’s strange, considering that the Los Angeles Lakers legend has gifted expensive cars to his friends before, including a Rolls-Royce worth $1 million to rapper GWANE after collaborating with him.  Turns out, Wade and Haslem had to buy their own Bentleys! But this time the proof is on the internet and he probably will make a fan’s day once again.
