Eddie Huang Gets Low With His New Scion iA Project Car
Eddie Huang has been on a tear with his collaborations with Scion AV over the past weeks and the newest is extra tasty. The Human Panda has created a new project car for the new Scion iA modeled after the lowriders made famous in his new homebase of Los Angeles. Huang is a respected chef, writer, eater, web series host, and a music lover, and this ride new proves that his creativity has no limits.
Recently Huang has also curated the Shellfish or Better EP for Scion AV, featuring new tracks from acts including Keith Ape, Prayers, Father and more. He took the Scion iM around Los Angeles to show what a versatile athlete he is.
Then he used the Scion iA to taxi Cam’ron, Vince Staples, and Prince Paul to the taping of the Scion AV All Purpose show and get a glimpse of what’s on their mind. Then the tables were turned, as Huang went on the All Purpose Show to be interviewed by Prince Paul. Exhaustive! See below for full spec sheet:
