| Shaquille O’Neal’s one-of-a-kind 2025 Range Rover, valued at $180,000 and custom-built to fit his 7’1” frame, was stolen earlier this month while being transported from Georgia to Louisiana for an LSU game appearance.
The luxury SUV, created by Effortless Motors, reportedly disappeared between October 20–22 after being “picked up” by a fraudulent transport operator. Authorities are investigating FirstLine Trucking LLC, the company contracted to move the vehicle, which claims its systems were hacked. Effortless Motors, who have worked with Shaq since 2023, are offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to the vehicle’s recovery. Police believe this could be part of a larger organized theft ring targeting high-end vehicles in transit. One thing’s for sure — whoever took it might find themselves facing a real full-court press!. |

Some cars are driven. Others are cherished.
When Jim Leonard bought his 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 brand new, he didn’t just own it, he preserved it. From day one, he knew this car was something special. Instead of tearing up the streets, Jim put it on blocks, starting a 40-year preservation plan that would make this Z/28 one of the most original, untouched examples in existence.
Finished in rare Olympic Gold with black stripes, this Z/28 remains a time capsule, original paint, untouched interior, matching-numbers drivetrain, a car that never left its hometown and never lost its soul. For decades, Jim admired it, cared for it, and protected it so that one day, it could continue to be loved by someone who truly appreciates its legacy.
At Corvette Mike, we live for stories like this. Of passion, preservation, and performance that stand the test of time.
Could the next chapter of this Z/28’s story be yours?
Let us help you find your dream classic—or sell one that deserves its next great caretaker.
Your next legendary ride might be closer than you think.

Beyond its striking appearance, this Prowler has been meticulously maintained and remains in near-new condition, showing just 6,753 original miles—barely even broken in.
