A few days ago, rapper Vanilla Ice shook the world when he revealed that he now owns Eddie Guerrero’s Low Rider. He told his fans about how he immediately recognized the car. Apart from that, he also mentioned that he was able to lowball the price of the vintage car as the previous owner did not know about the car’s pop culture significance. All in all, Ice was happy.
