Standing seven feet and one inches tall and weighing in at 375 pounds, Shaquille O'Neal is one big dude. Must drive a big 'ol car then, right? Umm, not exactly. The Phoenix Suns star center has recently been spotted in his newest automotive purchase, a smart fortwo. Seriously. And, surprisingly enough, he fits! Don't believe us? See above for photo proof. Well, so he sorta fits. It's a good thing that Shaq opted for the convertible, as his head comes up several inches over the top of the windshield. Oh, and we can find no real proof that the door has ever completely shut with Shaq inside. Just sayin'.

Shaq gets a stretched Lambo]]>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/04/30/whats-a-b-ball-player-to-do-shaq-gets-a-stretched-lambo/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/04/30/whats-a-b-ball-player-to-do-shaq-gets-a-stretched-lambo/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/04/30/whats-a-b-ball-player-to-do-shaq-gets-a-stretched-lambo/#commentsFiled under: ,

Shaq's Gallardo

Shaq is one of the most recognized athletes in the world, with multiple world championships, a few rap albums, Kazaam, and a reservist police officer badge. OK, Kazaam was terrible, but the man is one Hell of an athlete, and with all the money he has, Shaq has almost everything you could possibly imagine. The only thing Shaq has had some issues with are cars, with his 7' 1", 350 lb. frame not able to fit in anything but large SUVs and limousines.

But hey, when you're filthy rich, there really are no obstacles for you when there are suppliers like Gaffoglio Family Metalcrafters, who took Shaq's Lamborghini Gallardo and stretched it a full twelve inches. Gaffoglio, which is a supplier for companies like Boeing Company and PPG Aerospace Glass, used its aerospace expertise to make a potentially awkward project turn out like a work of art.

Gaffoglio strived to keep the Gallardo's beautiful lines and supercar proportions, and when looking above at the final result, we think they did an outstanding job. Now if you're Shaq, you can dunk over Yao Ming, and have your Gallardo too.
