No one has given my car names, but multiple people have called me rice boy for owning it...... That pisses me off because it is NOT a riced out car... It's suppose to sound beefy, no coffee can needed.

The only time I would call someone rice is if they drive an automatic 8.

In polished Brilliant Black, Batmobile, hands down. It even evokes the turbine whine. To enhance the raider-of-the-night feel, I'm checking into what I can do to put in an IR night vision camera using the Nav screen as a display.

I call mine Shin Chan, but my friends/ co-workers call it The Rex or Wankel. It's funny, most people call it Wankel because of my plates and not because they understand the reference. Most of them just think it's a nick name.
