Wow. You can rice out anything

Ok I have to apologize for not getting any pics of these cars but I am sure you will get a kick out of the descriptions. I had the pleasure of seeing these two ricemobiles in the last 2 days

#1

Blue 04 Corvette Z06 (Maybe- had the vents)

-Blue underbody neons
-Blue neons in the side vent (front fender vent)
-green led blinkers
-wing from what looked like a 99 trans am

#2

Blue Infiniti G35

Not to bad....

Just he had "Skyline" and GT 350 badges on the back of his car...

I just wanted to slap him...


Again Im sorry I didn't get pics

What's wrong with rebadging a G35 as a skyline? If that's all he did, I think he deserves credit for showing restraint

Inifiniti G35 coupe is known as the Skyline GT350 in Japan ..... I guess that person was going for the JDM look. Could be rice... depends on who you ask.

^^^ That's what I'm saying Is it rice to rebadge your Acura with Honda badging? your Subie with the pink JDM badges? I don't think so.... but then I have a pretty high tolerance for rice

Of course that Vette sounds just nasty! What do we call American cars that are "rice"? "Wheat"? "Potato"? Corn and cheese are taken for more generic crappiness, so let's not use those

The corvette was disgusting, no question about it.

As far as the G35 goes, I just feel like this dude is just trying to front like he has something exclusive when the bottom line is he DOES NOT. Its putting evo bading on a lancer, we all know its not the real thing. If you have your car floss it for what it is, whatever it is, don't b.S like u have somethign u dont

The G35 is a skyline.

Not all skylines are GT-Rs
Just like not all lancers are evolutions

They have NA 4 door skylines too,

The G35 is our version of the Skyline, If IM not mistaken it shares the same body as the new Skylines in JDM land, just not the GTR which is still the old body style.

There was a Mustang gt with Skyline "GT-R" badges on the side at a dyno day I went to... like this:



I just checked my pics from that day, and unfortunately don't have one of that, but it was hilarious. It put down like 150 at the wheels too...
