Shaq's 'first of its kind' Cyberbeast truck comes with a shocking price tag

Former pro NBA star Shaquille O'Neal has revealed what his custom Tesla 'Cybertruck Beast' looks like.

As if Tesla Cybertrucks weren't expensive enough already, why not add a couple more tens of thousands of dollars to the price tag and get it custom-adapted to suit your every need and desire?

Shaq's Cybertruck

Effortless Motors took to Instagram last year to reveal Shaq had just got the 'first wide body Cyberbeast', and a whole '12 months early' at that.

The video shows Shaq reacting to the Cybertruck, which not only features a wide body but is reportedly the 'first ever carbon body Cybertruck' too.

"Wide body carbon fibre, custom made."

The vehicle also features 26-inch wheels, alongside a custom LED underbody glow, and it's wrapped in gloss black with black mirrors and extra lights in the front bumper too, Autoevolution reports.

And if you thought standard Tesla Cybertrucks were expensive - coming in at between $74,000 and $94,000 in the US depending on the model -, imagine a custom-adapted one?

How much does Shaq's Cybertruck cost?

Supercar Blondie reports the vehicle cost around $101,985.

Shaq commented: "I got the cleanest Cybertruck in the country."

And it's not taken long for social media users to weigh in on the car.

"Shaq got the hardest cyber truck now onb", one said, while another commented: "Shaq makes everything look better. I love that gloss black."

However, others were less impressed.

"I'm not impressed. Ill be impressed if you went and opened up some housing for the homeless", one person wrote.

"Elon don’t mess with us, and here we are making him richer", another commented, referring to the controversial Tesla CEO.

The brand also gave a shout-out to LeBron James too, writing in the caption: "Big news! @shaq just got the first wide body Cyberbeast from @effortless_motors , and it’s all thanks to LeBron!"

Why? Well, in a since-deleted post last year, Effortless Motors allegedly claimed to have sent James a Bugatti.

However, James later turned around and denied any sort of deal having been made for a car.

In a post to Instagram he said: "Stop the [cap]!! LIARS!! I don't know y'all and I don't even have that car. CLOUT CHASERS."

Effortless Motors owner Daniel Ubario later admitted to TMZ it had all been a marketing ploy and added he'd since reached out to James to apologize.

However, while the ploy may've not worked with James, it led Effortless Motors to end up on Shaq's radar.

Shaq revealed he now had 'two' Cybertrucks, and he doesn't plan on stopping there with his custom-vehicle collection either. The star has since bought a S550 and Escalade IQ from the dealership too.

So, despite losing $2.1 million per year after splashing out on a $27 million luxury purchase he said he'd never buy, clearly O'Neal isn't doing too badly for spare cash.
