People have been messing with perfectly good cars for years .... and I doubt they will quit.

I just look on down the road ....

Factory rice doesn't make it any less ricetastic.

Meisterschaft exhaust or unimpressed.

agreed, but it sounds like you saying i went out and had non functional air vents added to my car. again, the twins also come with non functional air vents. and its just little air vents on the fender. im talking about the bigger picture. 5 feet wing, ugly body kits, painted interiors, racing strips, butterfly doors, lime green or some kind of other ugly paint color, and the list goes on.

to each their own

Let's break this down into bullet points.
1) almost every functional(proven to provide downforce) aero includes a oversized wing, why you ask? To...provide downforce keeping the car planted.
2) YOU may think a body kit is ugly, whose to say the other 99% of people do? My eclipse has a kit I bet you would say is ugly, I think it looks good and is completely functional with wind tunnel tests to prove it.
3)everyone should be happy with mis matched colors in their interior? The frs is a good example of this in my book. 90% of interior is red and black. Then random small pieces of silver? Yes, I plastidipped the silver red. Why you ask? It lt truthfully looks more factory and gets rid of the mis matched silver.
4) a racing stripe makes a car rice? Last I checked, MOST cars come factory painted with stripes. Guess domestic factory's are been over run with rice.
5) what do you consider not an ugly color? Matte black? Silver? Camaros come in a lime green, are they rice?

As for the 3 pics you posted. Perhaps they are show cars? As for the twins being the new honda. What do you expect? It's an entry level sports car priced FOR older teens/ younger adults. If your not happy with the way someone made their own car, move on. The "rice" title is long overdue to fade out.

On a side note, tell your SO good luck on getting a twin. I love my frs and they are truly a blast to drive while getting above average MPG.

We live in a world where your average joe doesn't have any taste.

If they did, nobody would ever shop at Wal Mart or wear socks with sandals...

1. most of those huge wings are on FWD cars. im not talking about the good wings if you will. the some of the ones that i have seen are cheap and looks like they will fall off at really high speed. there isn't quality behind it.



(jay lenzo said something similar in the FT1 vid

2. there are some nice kits like the five axis body kit. maybe your car is ugly idk post a post :p

3. so we should mess with it even more by adding even more colors?

4. yes i am aware that cars like the viper and mustang do come with racing strips. what i am trying to say is the twins dont need them and IMO looks better without. and racing strips dont make the car go any faster.

5. Camaros do not come in lime green, maybe you can get one special ordered but that doesnt show on their website.

show car or not, ugly is ugly. my point is that if teens what to make a ugly car do it too a civic. and you never addressed the butterfly doors

thanks
