Look what I spotted today!  Can anyone rationalize this?  :huh:



I fear for those poor animals.

Pretty standard ricer fare......ugly wheels, poorly attached and mis-matched bumpers and rear wing kit.  The stuck-on chrome shit on the F-150 next to it looks pretty tacky, too!



I saw an even worse ricemobile drive by but I couldn't get my camera out in time.

all the ricers seem to be in hibernation around here...

maybe they think their superduper civics are too good for some salt  :wtf:

I don't care about all that shit.  I'll be going to college to get an education at a cost to my parents.  I'm not going to fool around.

I like how the front doors are blowing their load all over the rear fenders.  It's a rather classy and dignified look.

Speaking of rice... I wish I had a picture of this, but I saw a black Jeep Compass all beat to shit with a giant fart can in the center. I also went to an autocross today and saw all kinds of crazy shit, but the Compass takes the cake.

I don't really see any of these ridiculous rice mobiles anymore. Even fart cans seem to be dying out. Makes my resonator-less car the loudest one around nowadays  :lol:

Saw an ancient Prelude (I think it was) with an upside-down decklid wing. Not sure the thing could go fast enough to get close to lifting the rear wheels, but it was a nice ricing gesture, and I was grateful for the amusement.

When I'm on the Wast Side of Cleveland (Huge Hispanic com.) I see tons of Civics. Some are modded and look close to stock, but there's always a few "Riced out" POS' running around. But on a whole I rarely see any tuned imports.

On the third photo you can see how horribly misaligned the bumper panels are. What a POS job this car was exposed to.  :facepalm:

There is no 316Ci for that generation 3er coupe. The lineup starts with the 318Ci, 320Ci and so on. This is probably a 318/320Ci.
