Quite frankly, just because it's not what I'm a big fan of, doesn't mean I would dog on them at all. I may not share their tastes, but I can appreciate that they take pride in their vehicles and they keep them clean and in great shape.

I would rather see these around than a rusted out 4th Gen with 5 different color body panels.

They probably think the same about your car, like people have said, everyone has their own tastes.

I think most of those cars look awesome. Not sure what bothers you so much about them.

You and I have a different interpretation of what rice is. A fwd compact that has a huge wing, lambo doors, a body kit, and painted in a ridiculously bright colour that makes it even more painful to look at ... thats what I think of when I hear rice. I didn't watch the entire video, but for the most part it seemed like they were mostly BMWs with aftermarket wheels. Not my tasted, but not really rice either.

Yes we do. To me "Ricer" is short for "Rice Burner" therefore any japanese import such as civic/s2000 so on so forth.. The BMWs I don't consider rice.. but also don't think they are attractive in any way.

S2K's are definitely not rice.

A person who makes unnecessary modifications to their most often import car (hence the term "rice") to make it (mostly make it look) faster.

S2k's are rice, but I like some of them. Not sure why this kid is hating on this video, tho.

I personally find some art pieces to be ugly - and then they go for big bucks at auctions. And what someone does to their car is their version of art - all in the eye of the beholder.

I may not like what they did but I can appreciate the hard work they put into it.
