As I stated...
You can have any PREFERENCE you want.. and I, personally, would vote for the modded 3 vice a stock engined car as that one.. HOWEVER.. to simply state that its "a ricer" because it happens to have rims and a (very well matched) spoiler on it, isn't exactly stating that you prefer 3L mods, instead.. its ONLY knocking on something that I doubt you could do either way.
I just think that it would have come across a LOT more convincing and a lot LESS critical if you had stated something along the lines of: "looks good, but I have always preferred go over show.... good job though"... or something... even if you didn't like it, you can still state that you don't like it in much more friendly ways...
Old dogs... new tricks... whatever.
