Ricetangs!

Is it just me, or are they are lot more riced out mustangs lately? It seems like everyday ive seen something new and disgusting. For instance, v6 and v8 mustangs with import style exhaust? wtf is that garbage... HUGE wings, disturbing bodykits, altezzas... bleh. And just the other day i saw a V6 mustang with Roushe (sp?) stickers all over it, but he had a import looking muffler on it..... [/rant]

It's because they want to be part of the whole "Import Invasion" thing with the fast & furious kids so they try to look importish as possible with a domestic.

Why is it that you can't pimp out domestics too?

The new V8 Mustangs sound so throaty, so if you put on an exhaust it makes it sound even cooler.

A body kit gives a Mustang owner a chance to stand out from the other million Stangs in the US.

Alteezas: No comment (I guess they want to be different)

Big wings: There are some cool non aluminum/double decker wings that I have seen on Mustangs.

Just an FYI: People in the US pimped out domestics before they started pimping out imports.

Tacky is still tacky. In the world of rice, you dont get points for originality.

for some reason the words "wing" and "mustang" just sound wrong no matter how you put it.

Just an FYI: People in the US pimped out domestics before they started pimping out imports.
and ppl in asia "pimped" out imports before they started pimping out domestics....

what do you mean when you say "pimped out?" does that mean body kits, sound systems, etc? or does that mean souping up your ride with performance parts? if it means the second, then US people started that first. if it means the first the no friends is right. cause my dad told me about how him and his friends used to soup up their old muscle cars (his camaro had 350 hp pushing it) but he hates imports...and domestics now too. the only kind of sports car he'll buy is a porsche.

Sorry, I misread the first post. I thought you meant any type of body kit would be wrong on a Stang.

The "big wing" I am talking about is not a wing. It is more like the Kaminari wing, just a bit taller (I thought it looked pretty good on the red stang w/exhaust, tint, and rims).

I was thinking regular exhaust, not fart can.

BTW, I am not a Mustang fan, the only 'Stang I would think about getting is the SVT Cobra (04 only, cause the new body style is oh so sweet).

one of my friends has a nice mustang...but he ahs what u people would think as a rice wing cause its a big one..but its off a cobra r...and unlike most imports taht are FF cars....it really doesnt do much...but since my friend likes how it looks and actually helps in high speeds and if he autocrosses...then it actual has a point....but if its some ricer type wing thats metal and has that carbon fiber on it...then yea...does not look good

You know what's funny? All the "hot rod" guys nowadays say that no 4banger can be a hot rod... ALL of the original hot rods were 4 bangers.

The only ricetangs I see around here are ones with distasteful rims and maybe altezzas. I've never seen an alum. wing on one in my town.

What original hot rods were 4bangers? The vette started life with an inline 6. I'm not an expert but I'm pretty sure mustangs came with a 289 V8 (although maybe a smaller engine was available..they did offer a 4 later for sure) I'm pretty sure camaros were the same way. I'm not saying your wrong...I just don't know of any original 4 cylinder hot rods. Please elaborate.

looked really bad. plus it had gt-r badges on the side and on the back.
What is the deal with the GTR emblems. There are 2 V6 mustangs with GTR emblems and 1 with a crooked SiR emblem.

But on the other hand mustangs can be really badass cars. There are 3 people I know with badass mustnags. 1 has a 67' GT350 replica with a 351. another has a supercharged soon to be turbocharged 2000 GT. And the last one has a stock 03 Corba with a complete V6 body conversion

Just FYI, Roush does make a V6 Mustang, so it may have been the real thing. I do see quite a few Mustangs around lately with Altezzas though, which is a disturbing trend. I don't have anything against Mustangs/domestics, but those look bad enough on our cars, much less a domectic.
