Kanye West has apparently added a new ride to his collection, and though still ballin’ in a major way, it’s also highly family-friendly.
Just in time for his very public divorce battle with Kim Kardashian, the Yeezy designer got the Mercedes-Benz ‘Executive Style’ minivan from RD Whittington of Wires Only in Los Angeles, who customized its interior to the tune of US$400,000. West was spotted out on the town grabbing an ice cream cone in the minivan, prompting a paparazzi to call him “an amazing father.”
It’s kind of fun to picture Ye driving the van, while a load of Kardashians (and maybe an SNL cast member or two) get up to all sorts of horseplay in the back.
Not a lot of details on the specific van have been released, or photos for that matter, but according to TMZ, each of the van’s seven seats has been swapped for leather recliners with their own trays and footrests. According to the gossip rag, West’s unit is similar to the black model shown up top.

The entertainment system has also been seriously upgraded to include multiple large television screens and a sound system you’d expect one of the world’s most famous hip-hop artists to have. (“Now I ain’t saying he’s an audiophile/ But he ain’t messing with no stock system.”)
We should get a look at more of RD Whittington’s skills in the upcoming Discovery Plus TV show Million Dollar Wheels, produced by Jamie Foxx.
