There’s a Disco Ball on Your Bumper

Car customizing didn’t begin with MTV’s hit series Pimp My Ride, but it sure felt out of reach before Xzibit began popping up on random people’s doorsteps and putting fish tanks in the back seats of ’91 Honda Accords. Having your name engraved in your steering wheel is no longer a privilege reserved for A-listers and athletes with too much money and not enough sense. If you like auto design tricks like these, the DUB Show Tour has more than enough cool shit for you. At the Miami Beach Convention Center this Saturday from 4 to 9 p.m., there will be drool-worthy custom luxury, sports, and exotic rides as well as a slew of celebrity autos and motorcycles that take ride-pimpin’ to extreme levels of street spectacle. And because cars are nothing without music, Rick Ross, Triple C, Pleasure P, and Brisco will take the stage to add some beats. Tickets start at $15. Visit dubshowtour.com.
