My favorite was I walked by a Civic and I saw this huge 3rd party tachometer with a big ol' shift light on it. I looked inside and saw it was an... automatic? Why would you need a 3rd party tachometer w/ a huge shift light for an automatic?!

[QUOTE=Clavius Curious if he'd suspect me if I left a box of RiceORoni on the hood of his car :rofl:[/QUOTE]
Why not just leave a small note on his windshield and refer him to this site, and this thread AND this particula post...LOL. Then EVERYONE can rib him, haha. But on a side note, I know he's probably pretty annoying, BUT, his car isnt that bad. I know, I know, its Geo with rims, BUT, it doesnt have a rear wing spoiler, an abundance of decals, and appears to be well maintained. So I cant be TOO hard on him, but definately a test of acceleration somewhere on a desolate road could shut him up a bit. |

(if anyone is curious... 2 front Boston Acustic 3 inch speakers, 2 Rear Kenwood speakers, and a box with 2 10" Rockford Fosgates in a 85' Dodge Aries Station wagon hahaha.. box was donated btw from a friend who got a Cadilac Escalade. I forget the RMS specs for the speakers sadly but they where the best between way to expensive and way to cheap.) |
On my way to work this morning I was trying to get a pic of a Focus with a supra style spoiler that stuck up higher than the car, stickers all over it, dark tinted windows, and spinner hubcaps (I could't believe it either). I tried to get next to him to take a pic with my cell, but he thought I was trying to race him. I decided looking stupid racing a riced out Focus would not be worth the pic. Hindsite, wish I had gotten the pic.
|
Maybe he bought the rims cheap at Pep Boys or something. It does look a lot better than hubcaps. Especialy spinner hubcaps.

any new pics? for a while there I was getting Rice cars like crazy (as you can tell) but for some reason they all must have broken down, because I just have not been seeing them lately. :( I kinda miss seeing them and trying to get good pictures. :)

Rice season must be out. I have not seen nearly as many funny rice cars as I was there for a while.
did find this one today though. This was taken on the 30 in San Bernardino/highland/Redlands (what ever part of the freeway that is. :) https://www.rx8club.com/attachment.p...chmentid=88519 |

must be high season for idiots with eclipses spotted this one with a vtec sticker on the back yesterday(apologies for bad image quality)
https://www.rx8club.com/attachment.p...chmentid=88522 |
I saw a green cavilier today with yellow tinted windows, a 3 foot spoiler with superstreet stickers on it, and next to the bowtie on the trunk he put "elegante by TYC". oh yeah, fart can as well. I thought to myself, you should swerve at this guy so he flips his car and wrecks it.

VTEC on an Eclipse.... nice!
Steak boy, you dhoulda taken a pic. :) |
Vtec..it's possible...maybe an engine swap :)

worst i have seen up here in DFW - was some old honda hatch that was a single exhaust setup to look like a dual. - i.e this person cut a hole in their body kit stuck a pipe in there. How could I tell? one pipe had actual exhast coming out the other was shiny and clean ass could be.
Runner up was a mercury cougar with two HUGE universal fart can exhausts coming out the back in an angled up fashion. looked like ASS turning a single muffler car into a dual muffler... pffft |
I have seen that exhaust before. single exhaust, and one clean non working exhaust tip. :)... funny!
|
my favorite are the full size chevy's with dual exhaust...with each exhaust split to house four tips each...a total of 8 exhaust tips.
|
oh yeah.... those are awsome! I saw that on a van once.
|
Maybe we can install miniguns in our 8's so when we see rice, we hit a button and they slide out and we can take care of them the proper way...

this one is not to bad, just thought I would take a picture for you guys. :) why oh why put a wal-mart wing, and a pep boys muffler on this car? at least cut the springs and take off the hub caps. :mdrmed: :mdrmed: :mdrmed: he he he
Target parking lot, San Bernardino Ca https://www.rx8club.com/attachment.p...chmentid=88705 |
if that was a Spec-v, they are fast...no joke.
|
it wasn't, and still does not matter. a wal mart wing does not belong on a spec v OR the regular sentra.... :) at least these people give me something to take pictures of.
like that Yellow RX-8 witht he blue graphics. :dunno: :nono: :yelrotflm |
I love the fact that there is white smoke coming out of his tailpipe.
Hmm should I buy the wing or rebuild the engine... Well the wing will make me go faster so it should compensate for the loss of compression due to me being an idiot! |
he he he, I didnt notice that. but that is a spot on the dirty county van that I was driving. :)

saw this Eclipse on Friday in San Bernardino, Ca
https://www.rx8club.com/attachment.p...chmentid=89192 https://www.rx8club.com/attachment.p...chmentid=89193 with the exception of gigantor wing, and the spare tire, (and the few paint chips) the car was accually pretty nice. :) body kit seemed to fit nice, which is a rarity around here. the other 3 wheels were nice. universal muffler didnt sound to bad. just htought the spare tire looked funny and was roth taking a pic of. :) |
fast an furious style body kit. Glad he didn't go with the roof scoop I've seen on a couple of others in the SB area. I even saw one painted lime green with a replica of the Fast/Furious graphic. I knew it wasn't the real car...cause we all know that one blew up when the Nirtous tanks got heated up from all that machine gun shrapnal.
|
he he he he he....
I have seen the same car running around here also. |
Loooove the donut tire!!! Classic. It's probably got 400 miles on it.
|
after all...it does have a 120 treadware rating. Probably better than the stock tires.

I think some people just put anything on their cars. But then again, maybe the cheesy "cheap" stuff is all they could afford?! But a v-tec sticker on a Mitsubishi is just retarded. Next thing you know, someone will put a v-tec sticker on a rotary! I think graphics--all graphics--serve only two purposes:
1) Cover a scratch/body imperfection 2) For show cars--that are supposed to be over the top--Advertise sponsors You'll never see a real classy car, Bentley; Lamborghini; Ferrari; etc, with huge graphics & logos on it. Furthermore, what's with the hangglider wings? NO STREET CAR needs that much negative lift on the rear! Especially front wheel drives! And $5 mufflers ain't cool either....well thats my two cents. Now, I'm going to Target and am gonna buy me a body kit & spring clamps.... |
I did see a car show once (on tv) where a Nascar guy sent his brand new Ferrari to be painted and stickered to match his Nascar car....yeah, was horrible to think you'd do that to a Ferrari....
|
Kwescott,
Yeah. Sounds almost criminal, no?! But, even as cheesy as that is, I may even understand it--given the guy is a PROFESSIONAL NasCar driver. But some schmo putting a GIA-NORMOUS Nike Swoosh or some other ridiculous logo on the car? Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Air Jordans, too! But Mike isn't sending me free pairs twice a month with a huge check to sport his Jumpman on my ride either. Even little cheesy things like, for example, a guy I know. He buys a part for his car. Then he puts the logo of that part on his fender. If the manufacturer sent him the part to test or say to advertise then different story. But to go out, buy the part, then post it so everyone knows you've got a 3/4" drop in your springs...thats just plain cheesy. Worse even, to put logos and stuff of things that aren't even on the car! Case-in-point the V-tec sticker guy!? Mi-Vec, maybe...but V-tec is strictly Honda, no?! Well that's my 4 cents. Gotta go, the UPS guy is here with the HKS Super Turbo muffler and Disney Lightning McQueen Body kit I ordered from Safeway and the Disney Store... |

Laugh, but dont be mean to me...Im sensitive...LOL :bootyshak |
has anyone got the shot of the honda with the massive exhaust - it deserves a place here
|
I saw the spoiler in the first pic on a FairladyZ the other day driving home. I swear it was bouncing up and down about 3 inches in each direction

Okay. So I'm wrong. Thanks for ruining the dream, bro. I guess no car is safe from nor beyond the reach of "tackiness!" What's next?! A Viper with a trailer hitch! Wait, I shouldn't say that...there just might be one or two out there!
Hahaha. Good find! |

I like that volvo! he he
|
In regards to the decal discussion. I think the rice equivalent for road bicyclists is when you see your average joe beer belly riding his 10 speed with the tour de france USPS logo bicycle shirt with a bunch of other sponsers on it. I'm sure all those people are paying him to ride to work each morning. :uhh:

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...s/Ricetang.jpg http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...Ricetang02.jpg Found this PoS while waiting at the Gas Station. I quickly grabbed my Camera and stagged a few shots. I have to remember to have my camera more readily available since I've been seeing a few Riced out cars lately in my town. Oh and the Charger in the first pic was a SRT version hmmm exhaust note was kinda sexay but I thought mine was still better hehe. |
Nice Ricestang! I'm lovin the universal mufflers, import wing, and stock wheels! I should trade in the 8 for that!
|
Is that mustang a V-6? That is what the wheels say.
YA!! Go V-6!!!!! |
spotted this in the parking lot at my local grocery store. not too often do we see the limited edition Buick GT around anymore. :Freak_ani I nearly crashed when i spotted this one.
http://garx8club.com/Gallery/albums/...TH_GT_WING.jpg sorry for crappy picture quality, it was kinda dark out. |
I like the endplates tilted over on the mustang. To reduce the drag from the wingtip vorticies coming off that kickass wing and give it a little more downforce. :hahano:
