You can't really call that Supra &quot;rice&quot; since it sports 650HP. It has the power to back up it's, IMO, overdone paint job.

I think it's funny that people will call a car that has been modded out &quot;rice&quot; but they think that buying an old american car and tuning it up past spec is cool. It's the same damn thing.

I myself am a truck guy and prefer to put big tires and grill gaurds and light gaurds on my trucks. So being an &quot;auto enthusist&quot; I respect guys that do modifications to their car.

Some things can be made fun of because the owner might put a Honda sticker on his toyota or the body molding doesn't match, but someone that spends mucho money on something and has a quality job done deserves more respect than being called a &quot;ricer&quot;.

Good point!

Maybe I'll hang out at the theater revving my v8 and pick up the chicks with their rice-boyfriends.

plenty to destroy, and have them get pissed and tell you taht you have a bigger engine and that's not fair. give em the finger and tell em, there's no replacement for displacement.

<-- rant deleted... temper checked... no matter how much complaining I do about people being close-minded and lumping things into a group to take prejudice against just because they look a certain way, nobody listens...

But I'll be there to see the movie when it comes out ;)

I personally would never take anything over displacement, there is something to an idling engine that vibrates an entire 4300 pound car.

&quot;entire 4300 pound car&quot;
Yes, it really weighs that much, you will notice I am remaining quiet about any handing aspects lol

Hehe, I'm still looking for a good and fairly cheap 500 big block, you got to love old luxury cars, they take the biggest engines you can find. I'm doing body work on my old caddilac, replacing the soft cover and everything but I want more POWER. A 4.1 liter (V6?!? I didn't believe it till I looked at it, those cylinders are freaking HUGE) engine doesn't cut it in that car. Course with the 500 big block I'll be getting about 8 miles to the gallon but being able to blow away the ricers (there's a couple in town with stickers, exhaust mods and lowered cars but no engine upgrades in town) with an old luxury car twice the size of their civics will be worth it.

This thing will GROWL (well, it does already, there's a loose bracket in the ehaust system that I need to tighten and when you hit the gas the thing makes tons of noise)

Oh, I found out how that mopar does the wheelie in the trailer, two hydralic lifting arms that were hidden in the car's under carriage shoved it up as it started.

Just saw the movie.

I gotta admit...It KICKED ASS!

- Is the story original? No.
- Could you figure out what was gonna happen next? Yes.

But the action and fast cars makes up for it! I'll be buying this badboy on DVD for sure!
