What TC Mods do you consider "Ricey"?
#122
Look, there is so many definition for being "Ricey". First of all, if somebody doesn't like your car or what you do to it then forget them for being a hater. Secondly, if you put wayyyy too much stickers, I think that is "Ricey" (some well place stickers is ok). Please don't over do it by putting 'Power by -----' or anything like that. I know it's a freaking Honda or Toyota. Third of all, Scion put an axle back muffler on my box, it is a "Ricer"? Plus shopping cart spoiler is way too much for me. Neon light is ok, if you don't over do it. If I had $50,000 and want to spend it on my Box, then it is MY decision, not yours! I don't need people to tell me how to spend my money. If I wanted to waste my money I would want to spend it on a '56 Porsche Spider or any newer Porsche 911
PS. What wrong with putting in a little BOOM in my trunk?

If you feel like modifying your car in a matter that a lot would consider rice, do it. It doesn't mean you are right, or that they are wrong. All is relative.
The automotive community, in general, would consider some things as rice. What you do with their opinion is up to you.

You could get a Corvette, Viper, M3, S4, Elise, SLK, or even a lightly used Carrera, or a Maserati. I don't know though, it might be more fun driving a 4 cylinder with $3k rims and giant subs.
Oh well, their money.

Sorry man, but hobby+waste of money = dumb
Sure, it is their money, but its still a waste.
I don't really understand what the point of your post is. Was it just your chance to enlighten us with your wisdom or maybe to start something else?
And how could say I was being a smart ___?? Are you reading the right post at all? I am not sure where you are having the comprehension issue, but I can't see how you could miss the point on what I said. It is clearly stated. Your reasoning pretty much says all hobbies are wastes. Hell if you just went out and bought a $50,000 sports car... that would be just as much of a waste unless you actually drove the hell out of it, so what is the difference?
It seems you are quick to get defensive and rude after reviewing this post and many others I have seen, so I guess maybe that is the issue. My post directly answered one of yours, not sure what to tell you other than that. Sorry if you didnt "get" it.

i think the term rice should only apply to anything that is too excessive. that https://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=58923 tc IMO looks pretty good even with all those stickers attached. if you can pull it off go ahead, but dont let others dictate what to do with ur car. either put up or shut up

^^^^^ I have to agree with that post. Hey, I'm not a big fan of the shopping cart spoiler, but I saw a celica with a nice clean body kit and a shopping cart spoiler. When I first saw it, I LOVE IT. It was clean and tasteful, no stickers at all, Just a nice clean car.

And you always look at it as if everyone buys cars to impress others. That is for the weak minded. What ever happened to doing something because you like doing it? I am not TRYING to do anything. If I want to put 50k worth of performance to make a totally impractical race car... then that is MY choice. I dont do anything to my car to impress others. As a matter of fact I dont do ANYTHING to impress others. I do it because I want to.

On a few occasions i've stated my opinion and you reached into your big bag of b.s. and pulled out a lame reason why my opinion is wrong. It an opinion. There is NO ANSWER. If you spend $50k on a $20k car, that's a waste - TO ME. Never told anybody they couldn't do it. Nor did I ask you to give me a speech on lifes other examples.
I get "huffy" when people tell me that my opinion is wrong.... if it was wrong, it wouldn't be an opinion. It would be an answer. And this wouldn't be much of a site if there was a clear-cut answer to every post.

This thread is hilarious. I know someone posted a pic from www.laughatrice.com. Has anyone actually seen the cars they take pics of. I bust up when I look at those cars.
Yeah I am sure sooner or later there will be a tC on that site. It will probably be Mr. Toughguy Smallpenis, AKA Dyltone.
Do you always park on the grass? Who said his car isn't alive? By looking at the pics it seems his car urinated on the asphalt. Must have been intimidated by its owner.
Seriously, if you take what someone says about your car to heart, you definately have self esteem issues. LAME!
