Elon Musk might love Kanye West as much as Kanye loves Kanye.

The evidence: In 2015, he penned a love letter to Ye for [*TIME's* 100 Most Influential People](<http://time.com/3822841/kanye-west-2015-time-100/>) list. Then, at this year's SXSW, when asked who his inspirations were, he cited the rapper "[obviously](<https://www.inverse.com/article/42121-elon-musk-sxsw-kanye-west>)." 'Daw.

Now, it seems that Musk's love is at least somewhat reciprocated. West and his wife, Kim Kardashian, are now the proud owners of a [brand new custom Tesla](<https://hypebeast.com/2018/4/kim-kanye-custom-tesla-model-s-platinum-motorsport>). [Platinum Motorsports](<http://platinummotorsport.com/>) gave the [P100D Model S](<https://www.tesla.com/models?redirect=no>) a Kimye-worthy upgrade. It now sports a Pantone matte silver finish, which you can take a look at in the shots below.

*Complex* tried to say in a (since-deleted) tweet that the ride came straight from Tesla's CEO, but Musk [shut that down](<https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/981659052768817153>) right quick:

Musk may love Kanye, but he doesn't free-custom-car love him.
