Rice is a fad, rice is an attitude, has nothing to do with imports. Some of the worst rice cars are some V6 Mustangs, its like your parents bought you a Mustang but you wanted a Civic? Its the whole attitude of hanging junk all over your car, no matter that it doesnt fit or add any function. The wing, the frontend kits with chickenwire mesh grilles, the stickers, the 5" tach with an automatic, the fart can, the neon, all this on a 4 door car with a 4 banger that won't get out of it's own way.

I have seen some Civics that look really good, 17's, nice paint, etc., and I always comment to them that they have nice car. However, most of the rice fad is applied to worn out beater Civics (and others) with no sense of style, just follow the leader, monkey see monkey do.
