Trust Shaq to see the delivery of an Escalade IQ worth over $130,000 as an opportunity for a prank.
After carefully mixing the perfect shade of gray, the dealer delivered the custom Cadillac in person.
Sure, Shaq already has two of these electric SUVs, but an order like this is still a big deal.
So when the sports legend seemed unhappy, the dealer took him seriously.

Inside Shaq’s garage
Shaq is no stranger to taking special deliveries of expensive cars.
In fact, the man owns around 40 cars in total, which are shared among his five homes.
He owns a custom Tesla Cyberbeast that’s the first of its kind, allegedly worth around $101,985.
And there’s the collection of cars he’s had modified to fit his statuesque frame, too.
His latest acquisition was a Cadillac Escalade IQ, the all-electric luxury SUV with a starting price of just under $130,000.
Its dual-motor all-wheel-drive setup combines to produce 750HP and 785LB-FT of torque.
It’s also equipped with the latest gadgets, including built-in Google, HD surround vision cameras, and hands-free driving technology.
Most would be content with just one of these massive 7-seaters, but Shaq already owns two.
For his latest order, he wanted one in a custom shade of gray, but seemingly wasn’t happy with the results.
Escalade IQ delivery gone wrong
This isn’t the first unusual delivery Shaq’s had.
He once ordered a Sprinter and ended up buying the Mercedes S550 that the dealer had driven to the deal as well.
In the clip, a rep from Effortless Motors pulled up to Shaq’s mansion with the dark gray Escalade IQ.
But when Shaq came to the door, he looked less than impressed.
“That’s the wrong color, bro,” Shaq said.
“I said off-gray.”
The dealer was so stressed he didn’t think twice when Shaq comically pulled out a magnifying glass to get a better look at the shade of gray.
Nor did he notice the basketball star gesturing to the cameraman to go along with the prank.
It was only when the rep was in the car, heading back to the dealership to repaint the Cadillac, that Shaq dropped the act.
“Bring it back, I love it,” he said.
Only Shaq could turn a six-figure Cadillac delivery into a comedy sketch.The post Shaq buys his third Escalade IQ and then decides to play the ultimate prank on the dealer appeared first on Supercar Blondie.
