Just because he was in a honda does not make him a ricer. OP, what about his car makes him a ricer in comparison to yours?

I like that spoiler. On the street it is useless, but you don't get a spoiler like that for performance, it's for looks. The other guy is just jelly because he wants an Toyobaru. As for him being ricer- just having a Honda doesn't make him a riceboy, what sort of mods did he have? Did he visit "that aisle" at Ricerzone?

Some Hondas are well modded and fast AF, some are just riced up embarrassments.

Funny how this also has a huge functionally useless rear spoiler.



This car even has fake side vents.

I think the nur-spec wing looks rather silly myself, no matter how much power the car puts down... so I would probably have the same thought that Mr. Honda had. There are many other rear spoiler options that flow with the design of the 86 better and/or offer better functionality (not that any of them would be "functional" on the street anyway.) I wouldn't bother to say anything to you at a red light though.

Why do you care what he thinks anyway? You bought it because you like it.

This car even has fake side vents.

Functionality useless for street use within the law yes. Totally functional if willing to shit on the speed laws or actually hit a track. I wonder what percentage of super cars actually get raced legally?

Fake vents have been on all levels of cars. Since the 1930s. Not really rice until you stick 20 more all over the car.

I have to agree the Nur Spec wing is rather silly looking imo.

Original design feature, not rice. Autozone stick-on vent, not rice, but incredibly tasteless nonetheless.
