Lexus

History: The gold Lexus truck: That was Biggie's ride back in the day when he first started coming up. He loved to roll around Brooklyn and smoke. But as much as he dug his ride, Biggie never drove it — he didn't know how to drive. Lil' Cease took the chauffeuring duties when he was only around 15 years old, before getting his license to officially push Big's whip. In the '90s, all the hustlers (getting money legally or not) weren't officially ballin' if they didn't have that Lex — especially after Big immortalized the vehicle in " Unbelievable."

Lyrics: "They heard about the Rolexes and the Lexus/ With the Texas license plate outta state." - " Warning"

I have yet to see it, but I have ALWAYS been a B.I.G. fan and know very well his love for the Lexus. Honestly, in the 90's the Lexus was better than any Benz or BMW, it was the way to go if you wanted to have the look of money.

I thought he played him well, but all of the jumping around and dancing reminded me of a dave chapelle skit in some scenes

B.G. "Rollin' Raw" lyrics:

"Baby Gangsta is worth six figures plus
I'm thinkin' about a Lexus Truck For Christmas
I'm a put TV's in both of the head rest's
"


R Kelly “…the way you do the things you do remind me of my Lexus coupe…

ICP "I could do anything if I wanted
I could buy you a Lexus Truck
with a white leather interior I could
"

Twista (Christopher Willams)
"But still some phonies, call me when you need me
Sit down with my homies, pull up in my Lexus
Let me in your world
"

Kimberly Locke, "One Love"
"She was so attractive
Her parents overprotective
She met another boy with a Lexus
And they made out on a mattress
She thought he loved her
But now he don't even bother
"
(that one's for you, Sick!)

LOL

Wasn't made to be a sports car, based off the Land Cruiser for a good reason, hahaha

That used to my favorite song when I had my LX470!
