For all of the anti-rice advocates out there, I'll be adding this new design to the Clothing page:

Make sure you look at the close-up of the badge... I got creative

HAHAHAHAHA....OK, you gotta' love that! I'd love to see someone throw that shirt on and walk around at a car show....

 

[imasaf]

thats freaking hillarious...

 

[whosthatrussian]

oh man, that's awesome. I think i'm gonna get one of those!

 

[ufgatorfan]

I dont mind ricers, but I hope they stick to hondas and mitsus. I think the Tc looks rather professional and would hate if its reputation turned into that have a Civc or what not because of tons of people adding "ricey" features.

 

[JZA70]

rice tastes good in my supra

 

[QuadinScionTC]

I think this site in in agreement that rice is bad. But not all of this site has a good understanding of rice. Who will be the judge of rice? We got the police but what is rice? My dad say since my cars forgein then it is rice.

Rice is whatever you want it to be.

Rice to you can be a person who think he's fast, or person who has an aluminum spoiler. It's a connotated word, so there is no definite definition.

Nice answer... I definitely agree with you on this one.

Hey, i found the best rice web site ever!

http://www.riceboypage.com/index.html

sooo funny. Check it out.

 

[whosthatrussian]

HEY GUYS, check out this new spoiler that I ordered for the tC.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...&category=33638

It totally rocks! It's made out of carbon fiber! I cant wait till I get it, b/c I know it will increase traction on the rear wheels! It's gonna definitely give it 10+hp if I dyno it. And i'm only paying $200 for it plus $35 shipping. I haven't seen such a great deal since that Cher cd went on sale!

From that auction listing:

THIS IS A NEWLY DEVELOPED PRODUCT. BE THE FIRST TO OWN
THEM AND MAKE YOUR CAR STAND OUT FROM THE CROWD.

BECAUSE IF YOU TYPE IT IN ALL CAPS, IT MUST BE TRUE AND EXCITING AND X-TREEEEEEEME, D00DZ!

But seriously, that spoiler will make your car stand out from the crowd -- people will be pointing at it and saying, man, that car is retarded!

 

[whosthatrussian]

hahah, I know, I laughed out loud when I saw the listing....rediculous!

 

[Eric]

yah, I saw that and just figured it was only a matter of time...

 

[basilisk4]

I think I would rather make my own spoiler out of toilet paper rolls and a broomstick than put that abomination on my tC...

 

[zesmitoda]

Meh... I don't really care. I find it mildly annoying when people put spoilers on their cars that don't seem to go with the car... or they don't paint various parts. IMO if you can't afford to paint it, you can't afford the part yet. Plain and simple. At least wait to install it when you GET the money to paint it.

I also like the "sleeper" idea as well. I might add some cosmetic things to my car way on down the road, but I'm more concerned with performance/driveability first. Plus I always enjoy being underestimated in all walks of life. Makes the victory that much more entertaining.

But, to each their own I don't see why anyone should give a rats ass about who puts what on their cars. Seems elitist/snobbish to me.

I think you hit the nail on the head right there. That's human nature, in one way or another. Lots of people look at cars as a way to feel like they are "better" than other people. Notice I'm not excluding myself from that...

 

[trinity]

^^^^That's because we ARE better than anybody driving anything other than a tC!!!

"Rice belongs in a bowl, not a car."

^^^tells everything.

i cant stand the altezza lights, where im from EVERYONE has them, i thought the point was to customize your car

I guess people can waste all the money they got to put that stupid stuff on thier cars, too bad they dont have to look at it when thier driving around town like I do

Im a big believer in the idea that there is a reason car designers get paid big bucks to do what they do. I wonder what the new scions would look like if toyota decided to get a bunch of guys out of the ghetto to design the next one...

heres what happened when GM hired those guys...
