What the f**k is the real meaning of RICE is it a car with all looks and no go? or a custom colour import with a kit and power?

Clear tail lights, vynals, neons, and pretty much all the wank factor items that do nothing to the power/handeling of a car!

I just can't understand these people that buy a car, spend so much on "someone else" to mod thier car that much that they've spent that much money on thier car that they can't/won't drive! GAY!

You buy a car to drive not to look at.......... If you want to look at a car buy a F#%kin model, sit it on your desk or whatever and look at it all you want

But hey thats just me, my opinion, If you don't like my opinion, I couldn't give a rats ass!

Cassio is class isnt he, and Spagz is f**ken great, made a difference when he came on.

Looks like it will be a great season -- look out Melbourne we want some 6-0 revenge

Rice came from the old school V8 boys (Ford, GM etc) that originally called Rotaries, Datto 1600's and anything else from Japan "Rice Burners". In their eyes anything Japanese made was rice, fast or slow.

Thesedays with a lot of cars coming from Japanese heritage (Nissan, Toyota etc) Rice has been narrowed down to any car that has looks not go is called "rice". But everyone has a slightly different meaning for it.

Here ends rice history 101 LOL

[chops]

Your old man's car is under the dictionary definition for opposite to rice.

Too true however, dad did have a 240Z back in the early 70's, his first really fast car, after owning his 1600 and then a 180B, got a 240Z then an XB Fairmont with 302... what a varied diet he had, mix of rice and beef!! LOL

I've always considered "rice" to be a car that's modded only for looks, and usually not particularly tastefully or over the top, like big "pram handles" on Excels, altezza lights etc.

IMO there'e nothing "rice" about a 240Z.

It's hard to make a car that has chrome bumpers rice..........

240Z is the perfect rally car(tarmac) fitted with a RB26, you can't go wrong! 240's would be lighter than 260's, therefore the 240s are better!
