#1 is an Acura RSX, with aftermarket headlights that don't even fill in the round cutouts in the front fascia = rice

#2 is an Olds...

#2 looks like an Old's Alero. #1 looks like an Acura, not sure of the model.

It depends on if the drivers are talking them up like they are capable of dominating any V-8 powered car, and they actually have nothing done to the motors. At least the Olds is a GM product. The RSX is packing an intercooler (unless it's photoshopped in there) so it might be able to run a high 13. They both are just something shiney to look at in the rearview. SBC F.T.W. !

IMO, the olds is the opitome of RICE...that RSX should look that way.

Remember...RICE stands for Race Inspired Cosmetic Enhancements...and that's ALL ALERO there

Ooooops...Isn't that your old car?

Whoever created that acronym simply hid the negative slur towards Japanese and their products. Rice Burner is old.

Look again. They fit fine but they've been blacked out.

The chrome wheels and no suspension travel on the Olds is obviously more rice than the RSX. Only thing really rice about the RSX is the vents in the hood IMO.

The visor tells me enough about the Olds' owner also.

When did an aftermarket hood become rice? The RSX is nowhere near rice. From those pics it looks tastefully done. If you think it is rice, explain why.

The other 2 are rice. Both slammed without any other mods. Especially the one on stock wheels.

Rice has nothing to do with engine size or what it may amount to, or the type of car. I've seen plenty of riced out camaro's and mustangs.

A car is not rice until made that way by someone.

By that description, most of the cars on the road are rice.
