I dunno about you guys. But to me if 'ricey, ricer, or rice' could be the term used for an adjective to describe the vehicles that are seen here and there with additions put on to them.......well, i'm gonna take a stab at this one.....seeing that we are all more subtle owners of our contiques.....hmmm....our contour/mystiques would never or find it hard to be categorized in the 'rice' category....simply b/c there are not enough freakin' aftermarket parts for our rides! I personally wouldn't mind if there are a few contiques posted up in here or out on the roads if they are done up tastefully. But it's just my opinion. cheers to all.


if you're bored, here is some info on my slug...

I have a question for everyone. I am not dissing anyone here or anyone else. Why is it when someone spends money to "soup-up" a car they get made fun of for it. You got the six, should have gotten the eight, got the gt should have gotten the cobra, got the cobra should have gotten the cobra r... Its endless. There are numerous reasons that guy probably bought the six. I agree with "midnight95se". Insurance is cheaper, payments are cheaper, and no one respects it. I am on 5 forums. All dealing with different cars. Escort, Tour, Mustangs, Camaros and Tacoma's. They all say the same things...shoulda done this instead of this...

Personally I have seen sixes beat the crap out of cobra's and cobra r's. It took work but if it was easy then why would you do it. Sure, why buy a six when you could buy an eight? I have no idea. But at least the guys with the sixes are putting mods on that make a difference. They aren't just putting on k and n air filters and chips. They are going out and getting their cars built. So let them be. We all have different tastes about cars. Some thinks it's rice. Ok, I personally don't. That guy is on the Mustang board I am on. If you saw the car on the street now...you would just stare and gaulk.

Don't judge the book before its written.

A friend of mine runs very low 13s in his V6 Stang. (its got enough for high 12's, but he just hasn't quite gotten there yet)

Remember folks, if the faster car is not being driven to the limit, its the driver you beat and not the car.


It's all about balance.
