Not I, never will either if I have anything to do with it - Chevy all the way, 8 cylinders! Tho I am driving a ford 6 cylinder right now but hey I'm a poor college kid driving my dad's old car, can't complain for a free set of wheels...
 
I dont have a car.... I have a bike which my brother popped the back tire. I also have a skateboard :jealous:

atleast as far as i see.... no potential here.

Sure there is. There's just enough room on the back to mount a wing, get some clear tail-lights, cut the springs, tint the windows, and put on a goofy exhaust tip. And maybe a cosmetic-only hood scoop.

This 50 HP beauty can be had for $5 at your local Wally World!
 
4 cylinders? In the left bank.
Wing? Does the tailgate count?
Exhaust tip? stock metal discolored from heat and 77000 miles.
Flat black hood? Silver w/ a chrome grille probably isn't close enough.
Clear tail lights? Only the backup lights.
Stickers? Just registration (ont he license plate) and a sticker from a board of which I'm an active member of. (back window)
etc? I take it 285/60R16's don't count as low profile nor large rims?
 
I'd imagine some would consider my STi as rice since it's loud (just a WRX wing though), but I don't really care. I have the bite to back up the bark :evil:

As a general rule, if it has more than 200 bhp, can do 0-60 in 7 seconds or less, and can do a 15 second 1/4 mile or better, then it's not rice, regardless of exterior appearance.
 
I think my car is a bit ricey...not too bad though....check sig. And I'm not a LAN going youngan either...Actually, I'm old but needed a car to get to work and back and this one does the trick...great on gas too!

if that's your rule, basically every 4-banger on the street is considered "rice".
 
No chance. I drive big and comfortable cruisers. My fav being my 02 towncar. I was going to get a new DTS this year but it's too small..

honestly your car isn't rice at all. the only thing i see different are the aftermarket wheels, which look very nice.
 
People think mine is rice due to 19' rims and the exhaust, but both are stock (well, sports package).

But is it a GST/GSX?
