ugly show without the attempt at modifying perfomance.

ie a slow stock car with a nice clean body kit and a few performance mods wouldn't be rice to me. Not everybody can afford fast cars. NutBucket's is border line, I wouldn't say it's rice though.

Its got 75 more hp then stock:confused:

Your car looks nice to me. Very sleeper-ish, although I wouldn't have chosen those particular wheels myself. If you're really pushing 75 extra horsies under the hood, :thumbsup: to you. :D

Expanded further/subtyped:

Claiming that said ugly show and "performance addons" massively increase HP/tq/handling/other aspects of car - besides my desire to longshot it with a 40mm HE round on-camera.

A window on your case adds 40mhz ;)

Is it considered a slur sometimes, always, or never? I'm still trying to figure that one out.

Is it considered rice if you own a dodge and put a dodge decal in your window? What about calvin pissing on a ford logo?

Eh. That kinda qualifies as domestic rice.

Calvin pissing on something = redneck rice, maybe could call it grits? :p Actually though rice started and continues to be most popular with Asian cars, I don't see why the term can't / shouldn't apply to domestic cars as well.

Domestic rice is called wheat. :)

My car is not rice, or wheat, or anything else. Well it may be a sleeper because it looks like a stock GT. I'm halfway tempted to make it look like a V6. Running 12's in the 1/4 and looking like a V6 would be cool. :D

I understand the whole all show no go thing, but what if...

I don't want it to go.

Not everyone needs their car to be 0.37833 seconds faster in the quarter mile. Not everyone has a chance to test that out, disregarding whether or not they even care to have a faster car. Can't people just make their car looks nice?

Would that still be considered rice if they did have a clean car without any engine mods?
