Sorry, but spend some time on those forums and you will realize most people over there are doing OEM quality work..

It's often easy to cast stones at things you do not understand...

LMAO! thank god my Rice Burner Days faded away after i got rid of my 01 Mitsu Galant for my 02 330ci, some type R stickers on the BMW altho would have gave me like an extra 30-50 brake horse power... now with my mini.. no rice here.. all suspension and engine work.. well my carputer but thats not rice. People think its factory installed when they ask LOL..

I had a run-in with a honda Civic SI, the damn hatch tonighht. I pulled up to a light trying to tos my Credit card into my Girls MINI so she could go get my mom flowers cause of my moms b-day.. This kid pulls up in the third lane and laughs at my car. Well i was like hmm ima smoke u now.. but i wasnt going anywhere with the damn traction coming on every 1.2 seconds. I think that his civic Type R, his Pepboys Rims, the Rear C/F roof Spoiler and his half mirrored tints and wanna be MINI Racing stripes on the front C/F hood WITH A BIG Subaru SCOOP AHAHAHAHAHA .. well maybe he would have taken me. Wonder what numbers he pulls on the dyno...

I see him alot recently.. Cant wait to catch him when its dry.


EDIT: sorry got a little carried away on this post. :impatient

Can a MINI truly be called RICE?

I thought "RICE" was reserved specifically for cars from Aisa.

I would think "EURO TRASH" would be more appropriate especially considering Where it is made and the BMW issue.

haha well actually "sauer kraut" has been used among BMW and VW crowds as a joke regarding the "rice" term

I dont think "rice" is stuck in just asian cars anymore.
