Check Out Shaq's Custom Charger SRT HELLCAT Redeye!

Shaquille O’Neal, the former NBA superstar, and a true performance car enthusiast, has once again expanded his impressive car collection with the addition of a modified Dodge Charger SRT HELLCAT Redeye Widebody. Being a mega-millionaire, Shaq certainly has the means to own some of the market’s most expensive and premium cars. However, his love for performance vehicles remains undiminished, and the latest addition to his garage proves just that.

The newly acquired Charger SRT HELLCAT Redeye Widebody has undergone a stunning transformation courtesy of Forbes Performance, an upfitter from Las Vegas, Nevada. This impressive vehicle marks the third collaboration between Shaq and Forbes Performance, showcasing the mutual appreciation for achieving a distinctive look for the former NBAer’s rides.

At the forefront of the modifications is an eye-catching front-end revamp featuring a custom-fabricated hood with a larger power bulge and air intake, exuding an aggressive and mean appearance. An illuminated red SRT badge on the front grille and striking red daytime running lights add to the car’s bold presence. A unique touch is the green element in the headlights, which casts an otherworldly, alien-like shape on the road, further enhancing the Charger’s distinctiveness.

The exterior enhancements continue with the installation of custom 21-inch wheels, measuring 11 inches wide in the front and 11.5 inches wide in the rear, coated in a sleek black finish. Complementing the bold exterior are side skirt extensions, red LEDs fitted underneath the car, and red brake calipers, adding a touch of finesse to the performance-driven sedan. The rear of the Charger receives an upgrade as well, featuring a more pronounced rear lip spoiler and a new rear diffuser with carbon fiber fins on either side, elevating both aesthetics and aerodynamics.

One of the most delightful aspects of this modified Charger is the personalized touch in the form of a rear license plate, which humorously displays an image of the “Shaq face meme” from his popular appearance on “Hot Ones.” This playful addition perfectly reflects Shaq’s charismatic personality, making the car truly one-of-a-kind.

While the external enhancements are extensive and visually striking, it is essential to note that Shaquille O’Neal’s comfort remains a top priority. Standing tall at 7-foot 1-inch, he often encounters difficulties in fitting inside standard-sized cars. Therefore, it remains unclear if any interior modifications have been made to ensure a comfortable driving experience for the basketball legend.
