Whats with the "RICE"

[pentae]

Rice is tasteless modifications that try to make a car and owner look better than it is, and fail miserably.

I came cross a guy who was too cheap to buy a real WRX and got a GX and was converting it over to a WRX, complete body and inside change.

He had spent money on a twin turbo setiup in it, and had done some other things.

I guess he doesn't know that a used WRX would be around the $20,000 mark for a car that's done around 40,000klms.

.. i have the scary belief that most people that don't drive anything customised or interesting are boring people

[Pistolpete]

its all about posing ie. i have an awsome kit and lots and lots of tuning stickers so i obviously look cool, go me!

[WiDeBoI_2JZ]

theres nothin wrong with having ie. Blitz, Nismo, HKS ect stickers along the door even if you dont have them..... How ever the only rice to me is, Seeing Lancers with Evo stickers or Evo body kits, and the Commo i saw last week full of Evo Stickers.

[JAMESW]

Please tell me the distinction here? Having Blitz sticker and not having the parts in your car vs having a lancer with Evo stickers and NOT having the Evo parts? what's the difference?

I personally like Rice. I love seeing a Daewoo or something crappy like that, with body kits, big rims etc... i wouldn't drive one myself, i usually laugh, but at least they're driving something unique or at least TRYING to be unique. And hey, it's a free laugh so big deal.

JAMESW............it's rice if you're not a member of SAU

but if you are then you have the performance to back it up..........

I said this in a different post a while ago..........but i read a car mag over here that had a Puegot 106 as the cover car........completley done up. but no performance enhancing mods......

the owner said "whats the point of driving fast if you have the style sorted.....people cant see you if you drive fast"

that sums it up

Hehehe, you should make a poll and see what the majority says on that!

[Serious-Seven]

I would never put stickers on my car besides skylinesaustralia.com

WHY?

because its just rice... reminds me of footscray where alll those viets drive around with rice up cars.
