I wish I was a millionair, I would buy it put it on a trailer and forget to strap it down or put it in park. The look on his face after the first turn out of that place with him watching his beautiful baby slide off a trailor would be worth 7500$.

I just don't understand this double standard crap.. it's not racist to refer to asian influence as ricer, but oh hell if spanish/latino/mexican/whatever type flavors are referred to as beaner?

"Rice" refers to East Asian automotive technology and more particularly its aftermarket parts & accessories fan base. "Beaner," etc. lacks validity because most of Latin America has no automotive design industry of its own (exception Brazil) so it simply refers to culture alone, appplied to cars from wherever.

One pokes fun at a class of aftermarket culture for existing vehicles and does not identify a specific racial or ethnic group; the other pokes fun at core culture applied to automobiles within a very specific racial and ethnic group. "Ricers" can be any color. Can you say the same for "Beaners?"

What a load of crap. I'm sure every person I've ever heard that from at gatherings or car shows or message boards who saw some sort of hideous Japanese car thought about "East Asian automotive technology" when saying the car was a "ricer."
Even with your angle it can still be considered the same thing. You say "East Asian." They are stereotyped as eating rice. Mexicans/Spanish/Latino/andwhateverthepoliticallycorrectnameisthesdays are stereotyped for eating beans. Nice try, but that concept is extremely weak.

Body modifications are pretty bad but I'm sure the lt1 is fine at 27k. Title should say poor TA.

im a white american/ irish blooded 4 generations ago. I could care less what someone called me in racial slang nor do i take offense to any of it. If your that "thin skinned" grow a set im tired of all the political correctness.

Now as the car, holy **** thats the most retarded thing ive seen in a while.

Yes, but why? It's the same thing. You make a reference to a Japanese car as being a ricer mobile then it is socially acceptable. Call a car that has some sort of "south of the border" influence a beaner mobile and watch out! You are a racist.
