Which car do you like?

[bambam89lx]

I was wondering what kinda of a car you would prefer to build and drive.....
The choices are:

1. Sleeper- Rolling on steelies with out any visible signs of engine modifications besides maybe a muffler....(but has an engine swap)

2. Real Clean- Fast and the Furious look, very cleanly done interior with huge rims, nice paint job, body kit, w/ at least basic engine mods (intake, header, exhaust, etc.)

3. Rice look- Extremely huge aluminum spoilers, chrome hub cabs, wal-mart tint, no other modification to the car except an exhaust especially automatics with fucking loud ast exhausts, stickers and decals done w/ poor taste....etc.

4. Don't really care...Im just happy to drive the F*ck outta what I got!

You consider the chrome rims, giant touring wings, ugly graffix, fire shooting mufflers, and all that shit in Fast and Furious to be clean? I think that is rice to the fullest. JDM and the "JDM Style" is clean and functional in my opinion.

I like a clean car. It can look fixed up as long as it isn't with flashy washer leds and chrome of any kind.

I think he is refeering to the black 5th gen civics in fast and furious, cause you gotta admint those were clean as fuck!

u don't have to have an engine swap to have a sleeper....d15 & d16's have excellent potential...imo

I disagree. JDM is the newest form of rice and has yet to be played out. Like full amber corners, all you really need to do is paint your stock corners and you will get the same result. I honestly cant believe that people pay all the extra money for what is stock in another country.

as long as your willing to spend the money on something that you like, dont care what other people are going to say, personaly i would put one of those giant shopping cart wings on my car, but it wouldnt look right, but thats the style I like. And i tell everyone, it doesnt matter what kind of car you drive, what matters is what you do to it to make it different. But thats just my opinion:finger:

[emil13si]

I totaly agree with you that JDM style isn't worth shit, in here you can buy that shit and it's stock, there aren't many of those SiRs in here but I don't see any perfection when you do a SiR conversion
I must admit that some of those guys in USA that want a JDM look or something like that stock scene are pretty anoying and with that shit "I've got a JDM parts on", "oh shit really" you must be the coolest guy arround with stock parts-yuck I hate stock parts....

So my opinion is the best look is orginal look and that is doing something by your self and that you like it cause you did it and it's unique not cause now it's cool to have JDM look!
I love those things that are unique and that gives your car special look so you can put your sign on the back of the car instead of CIVIC SiR, in one word you made your self your own car!

That's why I love those Swaps and all conversions cause that is unique and I love that!!!!And I respect very much all those people that are doing something like that:sun:

Have a nice day,
finnaly one person that is reasonoble JDM is stock and nothing more!!!!!!

They had neon lights and hideous moosehorn spoilers, not clean in my opinion.

Popularity doesn't make something rice, ugly pointless non-performance related modifications make it rice. I don't have amber corners on my car, I don't like them. But I rather have an Si-R spoiler on my car than some nasty ass moosehorn looking spoiler siting up a foot from my roof made by APC, a company that makes poor quality products. No one can deny that most if not all JDM parts are of excellent quality. APC, an American company with nothing but crap makes shitty parts. It's not whether you want the name or not, its if you want the quality. If every Honda I saw fixed up had black wheels and amber corners I rather have that then have it like it is with all of them having chrome rims, neon, washer leds, and pointless shit. Sure it is their car, but its still ugly.

Well i like my ride. Clean no body kits no fancy lights no stickers. Just clean look.

[VelocityCivic91]

I am with Mellow. I like my ride. Like he said, no bodykits, fancy lights, and stickers. I keep my ride clean, yet unique. I do like the JDM stuff, but it is on the expensive side.

[gunnmen01]

lol...sleeper has 55%...so mostly were a bunch of looks slow...but dont rev on me group of people...hehehhehe my favorite...


gunnmen01..............IBL(this one may get ugly)

[Cfmotorsports]

Well i looks and speed so as i build my car i am going to be giving it show and go not in to the big wings and stuff but a well exectued body kit and paint job just turns my fancy. I don't think becuase you want you car to be differant from the croud that make you rice and that what alot of people in here seem to think. I don't like the stock look! its borring. and to all those people who spent money on all that JDM stuff your guys cars look great but its still pretty much just stock. But i really like all cars stock or modified so do waht you want and be happy with it you are the only one that counts

[soulkeeper]

wtf are you talking about, JDM mods are the shit! how can you honestly sit their and look at a GSR with jdm front end with HID's and call it rice, your a dumb mother fucker if you think that.

[1PhatCX]

I wanna try gettin the JDM wing for my hatch, thats all cuz i like the LED's then just do custom shit with my stock bumpers and shit but i like the sleeper look, its definately good, i want that or show look hehe

[jNYCe5]

its really up to the individual fixing up his/her own ride... if they want to make it look flashy-more power to them... as for me, i like to keep it simple, nothing too crazy....

everything in moderation is ok with me
