JUST HOW IGNORANT CAN PEOPLE GET?

Okay, I don't wanna sound racist or anything, but my girlfriend has a friend that's white. My girl told me that every time this white girl sees my car she says it's "riced out." I'm sorry, but last I checked rims and a lowered stance didn't constitute rice...I don't even have altezzas. She's got one of those boyfriends who drives a mustang and always has to talk down to japanese cars. I have nothing but love for domestics, but some of the people that drive them.... [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/IMG] Anyways, here's my car...honestly is it ricey to you guys? I know 18's might seem ricey, since they kinda slow you down, but what's the point these cars are slow anyway...by the way I also took off the groundcontrol stickers a long time ago...

my car

Your ride is clean and not "ricey" (whatever that word means)

I hate that word with a passion now.

Anyway, don't trip about that person. You always have haters out there, I get it all the time but I don't care. Its just pointless. Thats how people like getting their kicks in, degrading others, making them feel bad so that they believe they are better then you. Just look at some of these people in this site.

Straight haters.

Its one thing from telling somebody the truth, and being honest to just being mean.

Seriously though, when people say something about my car in a negative way, first If its constructed criticism, then I will debate, if it isn't. I simply ignore it, ignore the person, and let it go out the other ear.

Actually, I do that to anybody who is ignorant with me.

Its more effective that way, because all they wanna do is get you pissed.

Ray

That is a tight lookin ride. Just keep up the good work and doing what you think looks good. And Fu ck domestic cars. How many Honda's have you seen broken down on the side of the road compared to domestics, I know I haven't seen that many in my day.

Usually girls that dont know much about cars will call any suped up or even stock japanese car "rice". Don't be so offended and it has NOTHING to do with her being white... there was no need to even mention that she was white

<sarcasim> Yeah man, that is the most "Riced Out" car I have ever seen </sarcasim>
Hes just a **** and doesnt know what hes talking about, hell there is a guy in my town that has a stang (with Altezza's) and before that a nice hooked up S10 and loves his domestics but has respect for imports too, like WTF?. I am as white as I can get and I drive an import, so what does that make me?.
Sorry to ramble on here but I think I have a point in there somewhere?.
Anyhow your car is clean as hell man, I dont see a single thing on it that says Rice.

Ok, I'll say this again. RICE = Really Ignorant Car Enthusiast.

Your car isn't rice, not even close. You don't need an import to be rice either. I've seen so many domestics that are rice that it's not even funny.

People that put 50 stickers on their cars for things they don't have or that don't sponsor them: Rice. People that have fake parts, i.e. intercoolers with no turbos: Rice. People who put a 5 foot high wing on a car that has no other mods and doesn't need downforce: Rice.

These are just my opinions, everyone got one and they all stink.

Your car is nowhere near rice. There are some people that think that any import is rice. Simply ignore them because they don't know what they're talking about. It's best to be a car enthuasiast at heart.

I'm a 'white girl', and I don't think that it is ricey.. it looks very clean.
I guess everyone has their own opinions of what is rice and what isn't, it doesn't matter what race or gender they are.. you could get that opinion from anyone.

Hey guys thanks for the support to be honest with you I think my car is pretty plain looking. Hey I didn't mean to sound racist, but I was just trying to point out that there's alot of red blooded white americans that love to dump on imports, and when she says "riced out" I feel like it's a racial remark. I was wondering what you guys thought. Thanks!

Your car looks sweet!! Not ricey in the slightest. The stuff you have done is very subtle and makes your car stand out from the scround without screaming "HEY LOOK AT ME"

Dude, there will always be dumb, ignorant people who will call you a "ricer" or your car "ricey" or "riced-out".

One thing's for certain: Ignorance is not racist or prejudiced...even so-called educated people make these idiotic remarks. Even domestics with body kits or lowered suspensions are being called rice, so it seems to have become a universal put-down for modified cars now.

As I have said before--and no offense is meant by this--FVCK everyone else's opinion because everyone will have one anyways. Do with your car as you please. If YOU like it and YOU enjoy driving it, what does it matter what anyone else says? Do not even acknowledge their ignorance/stupidity by getting upset--that is exactly what they want.

BTW, I love your car and I don't think it's ricey...but you know about opinions...
