I actually like the syle of it. Whats wrong with mixing ideas around from other cultures?! Its got futuristic styleing w/ American muscle to push it. I'd drive the wheels off that sumbitch!

A basic rule is: "if you have to ask, it's rice".

What other cultures is this mixing? I assume you're referring to the Japanese culture. For the record, these horrible body kits are 100% American versions of what people think Japanese cars should look like. I can't remember ever seeing anything that ugly actually come out of Japan. Nope, these are designed and made by Americans. I don't like foreign cars much but in their defense there are very few factory "rice burners" made. Rice comes from us modifying and deforming those cars with huge air craft size spoilers, neon colors, and trash can mufflers.

And there isn't anything "futuristic" about that kit. Hell Paul Walker had that same kit in that crap movie that shall remained unnamed, back in 2001.

What I ment by different cultures I was talking white/black/asian/hispanic. EVERYONE has a different take on a car and sooner or later they all get intergrated in different designs. Sorry your so tuned into yourself to see past the movies. The guy shows 1 picture and this is what you have to say?!

I could really care how much you bash me for what I think on this topic of the design layout of this teachers car. I like it. If I had the kinda time/money I would do what makes me happy to my ride as well. The guy asked who liked it or disliked it or who thought it was ricey or not. I was one of the few if not the ONLY one who actually said something positive. Obviously your just here to start **** so you can pretty much shut the **** up right here and now.

How do you know it has a trashcan muffler? Have you heard it run? Have you seen under the hood? for all you ******* know it could have twin turbo and spank your candy *** OR it could have a V6 and do a flyby. Others on here have Neons in their bird plates, in Ram Air ducts and what not. Hell I added a neon in my MTI Lid to show off the LS1 Bird logo on top of it. Had plenty of great comments on it from the LS1 crowd. Guess that makes me a Ricer so Ill take my bow and you can pretty much kiss my rebel ***.

I love jackasses who post like this. You definately caught me havin a bad day and coming in here and reading some dumbass **** like this. Sorry but Im one of those who will not bend and conform just because YOU dont like something. Im not here to please you or anyone else for that matter. If you dont like rice, dont even touch your damn car and leave it factory. You drop it an inch, your rice, you paint something different, your rice. stfu already with this nonsense.

How exactly am I here to "start ****"? I didn't ask you to bend, conform, or please me in any way. I directly responded to your own statements with actual information and at no time insulted or bash you in any way, something you're obviously incapable of doing.

As for your invitation to "shut the **** up right here and now", I think I'll pass. I was asked a question, answered it, and responded to a post I chose to respond to, all without violating forum rules or launching personal insults, so I think I'll just keep on doing that. Thanks anyway though.

You said it was a "blend of cultures" when referring to a car that was obviously made to look like an American modified/styled Japanese car. I simply pointed out that it was not a blend of anything Japanese. I'm not sure how you take that as a personal insult, but then again I'm not sure what most of your irrational, illogical, emotionally based rant is about.

I never said that this particular car had a trashcan muffler and at no time did I insinuate that it was slow. What I said was in reference to the origins of body kits like this and that it was Americans who started this trend to include putting trashcan mufflers on import cars. I also never mentioned lowered cars or paint jobs. Once again, that was you reading into something that was never said.

And somehow you missed the fact that everyone else agrees that this particular body kit is extremely ricey. So, it was nice tearing your rant apart piece by piece, have a nice day.

I don't really need to say anything other than the fact that this is definitely out of japan (and is still there) and i'll bet that 99.8% of the people on this site will call that ugly
