    I want him to come back.........He's wrong!!  >:(

    He is the one with no good comments, if you read his posts there opinions not fact! If he thinks there "they can look nice" = Opinion, if he thinks there "easy to work on" = Opinion NO FACTS at all in his argument - His mom must be clever or butch because I doubt very much he'd know what to do under the bonnet.
    He must have no life, coming to this site and raising the blood presure of members so close to Christmas - Goes to show how immature these guys can be....... ::)

    Come backs - so could we?????????????

    He has know idea - they cost heaps because they appreciate and aren't around every street corner listening to Linken Park hanging around with underage girls thinking there "tough."


    #%@!! Plonker!  >:(

    I know this might be pointless to argue with this faggot anymore... but I just have too!! ;D

    Smart enough to make valid points eh... comparing Imports to Muscle is like well... comparing Imports to Muscle... they're completely different...

    As far as your little "list" goes....

    -Damn straight they go fast... how fast does your Honda lawnmower go??
    -Rebuilt correctly... care to explain that one some more... show me a Muscle car... or even a Mopar that isn't rebuilt correctly and doesn't look nice...but first I'd like to try to even see you try to rebuild your little rice box.... ::)
    -Only those people that know exactly what they're getting with a car for $5K with no engine or tranny pay that much...you can ask lots of classic car owners... either they got a really good deal and rebuilt the car... or they paid good money for a nicely restored one...  ::) (Junk yards are for rednecks (no offense here guys)... but all the ones I've ever been to... are TRASHY!)... you won't see any junk yards parts on my 'Cuda...)
    -A great condition Honda for under $2K... does it run? is it life size? :-\
    -When you start posting random girls in front of riced out Beemers or imports... we're going to assume what we'd like... how were we supposed to know what website that was from... ya know what else is stupid... YOU!
    -Only dragging and looking good... so what else are imports good for?? Making lots of noise with stereos and looking rediculously hideous?!?! ::)
    -Your Mom can do engine work on a Mopar... damn! What's his name?! :D Inside... the engines are all the same minus an OVHC or what not... a crank.. some pistons (for you, only 4).. some valves... a cam... wow... so tough now!!

    I guess we forgot the sign on the enterance... no dumbasses allowed...

    CYA!

    Then I guess you are at the wrong web site

     Oh & why is the pic you posted listed as a Merc ?
     Thats a BMW

    i just got it from a website and threw it on here.. i didnt have anything to do with the name. I was kinda wondering that myself.

    Edit::: just did some research.. thats the models name.

    So you mean to tell me they don't even bother putting what kind of car it is because the Latin chick in front of it is more of an eye candy than the riced-out BMW?  I look through my "kind" of magazines and see cars and cars only......Yet when I manage to catch a glimpse of Super Street (haha) the g-wigger wannabe Ricer sitting next to me with his PINK cast on his broken arm and a Del Sol sitting in the lot, that all the girls say it looks "cute", those mags. are strictly sold by the cute girls they have taking up 3/4 of the page with the winged Rice just barely poking around the chick's figure..C'mon, anyone can put a hott girl in front of their car and get people who aren't even into cars to say they like your ride.... ::) ::)  
    As for the assumption of me being ignorant, actually, you're absolutely WRONG!!!!  I respect cars that can consistantly go fast and it PISSES me off when people with slow cars think they're fast!  BTW: I'm 18, like several other people on this board, and quite frankly, the wings, illegal neon lights, and all that other stupid sh!t really doesn't appeal to me.  Give me a real muscle car that gets 9 mpg, some 3" flowmasters (two inches smaller than that exhaust tip you have dangling off your factory pipes) with full exhaust and I'm set!  
    The thing I like best about Rice is how much things start to look exactly alike when everyone starts adding wings, ground affects, etc......I see one and I feel I've seen them all because they don't have any unique features to them like "our" cars do.....Ever hear anyone mistake a Nova for a Fairlane?  Exactly, never....Not so much the case with a Toyota and a Honda with all the same crap installed....Just doesn't make sense to me, but that's my opinion.  Again, enjoy the site! ;D

    Alright, this is my last "ignorant" post from a "stupid" kid who's graduating in the top 10% of his class with three AP (advanced placement spelled out for JG)classes.... ::) :o  As usual, after finishing reading the rest of this opinionated post, only facts were from most of the regulars, I have been given enough of a spark to post once more.  JG, most of us here don't really use "wrecking yards" for the main components of our build up.  We usually just get our eye-appealing pieces that are hard-to-find from the yards to get them redone and make look better than any piece of ABS plastic on your ride.  Out of the two cars you posted here, why haven't we seen any that you actually own???  Alright, I'm done with this thread because there just any need for me to take my intellectual brain to such strains reading as much B.S. as you have posted earlier....P.S. Hope you enjoy going back to the Ricer forum and posting more B.S. about how "ignorant" our muscle car site is....I know it'd give me great pleasure doing that.... ::)  If you don't mind, I'll go take a ride with my friend in his '69 Camaro, fully built for less than $6,500.00, and both challenge and take out any Ricer in this area.   :D

    NZ440RT,  sorry man, but I happen to be one of those kids who listen to alternative rock and power rock (like Static-X).....But please don't kick me out because I still love my muscle cars!!!!! ;D :P

    I love the remark those things are so easy to work on, if one was to use every modern thing on a honda motor on a v-8 they would have so much power we would all be dead.

    the difference -
    flat heads 175hp is good
    v-8 500 is good although you can make over 7000 from 500ci
    overhead cam, v tech computer controlled roller blah blah blah
    ls6 5.7- 505 v-10

    these are apple and oranges

    let see my friend 100cc honda go cart idles at 7500 cruises at 15,000rpms and would smoke most hemis its 12" heigh weights 250lbs with driver.

    NZ- just a thought but is not a mopar an import/ I guess canada is exempt because there so close. but a dodge that is made in Aussi is like a nissan made in tennese there imports.  Just a thought.

    Yeah mate it's an import - I guess I should be using the term ricey, but you know what I mean  ;D

    Yip Aussie Built Chryslers are also imports here but we class our countries as one type thing, there our blood we've had them here as long as there've been building also race them, same goes with Holdens 300kw V8's and Ford Australia  8)

    I'm going to sell one of my riceys and get another Mopar I've decided - either a 1970 Charger, 1969-1/2 Superbee or a Cuda  :D

    This started to sound like my old High School days.  Guys from a rival H.S. would show up at the Burger Drive-In talking trash.  Next week we'd show up at theirs, talking the same $hit.  Next thing you know a couple guys would start trading hands.  A week or two later we'd block off a road out in the country and we'd have us an automobile race.  One guy'd tell another " man, you need a bigger carb"  Soon it'd turn into a big swap meet. ;D

    Problem is:

    I don't think I can fit Honda parts on my MOPAR.  Hehehe

    Oh well!  Wish the thread hadn't started out with the typical Old cars suck, Imports rule B.S.  Might have had a real discussion.

    Later,

    Well. I guess since he is gone he wont see this, but I had one of thoses rice rocket gurus in my store the other day.  He was telling me how you can spend a few dollars on a Honda or Acura and outrun Hemi cars, even in the quarter.  I almost went into hysterical laughter!!  I guess neither of them read the recent mag article where they took a standard Corvette ($52k list) off the showroom floor & outran several $100k + Ricers, both in the 1/4 & in the road course, & it wasnt even close.  I don't remember the mag name, but I think my son in law has it.  Also, I know from experience that old Mopars are pretty good in the handling dept also.  So do a few Ford & Chevy drivers in this area.  Besides, after the first straightaway, the ricer wont be close enough for it to matter.   Ovmf

    Jgainesia you posited more than once on Mopars as a whole. Overwhelmingly though this site is about helping each other when and where possible. Threads usually start with a question looking for an answer instead of an "argument". Yes there are some recent threads that produced passionate debate but they didn't start out by listing reasons against the very nature of this site.
     
    It wouldn't take a Psychology major to guess the types of responses the opening post would attract so possibly it could have been worded juuuust a little bit less antagonistically. My response ? Definitely biased as i enjoy musclecars in all shapes, sizes, and colors. I like some foreign cars too. I hesitate to say imports here as not all foreign cars are able to be imported to the USA. But i'd rather soup up (jeez i think i'm dating myself with that one) an old musclecar rather than a new foreign car anyday. It's the look, the sound(s), it's the whole package. No need to inform us of thier shortcomings or of foreign cars and thier strong points. Nor am i intersted in doing the same to anyone else. By now this thread has given a pretty clear indication of our opinions - again based on the opening post. There are good folks on this site who have helped and been helped but no one likes a question in the form of a put-down. Safe holidays, friend.

     ;) Hey onefornow,
       I was the original guy to respond to this post. Since he "says" he won't be back, I can now say I agree with you totally. His original post was VERY pointed, and just looking for an arguement. I tried to be tactful, but I can see others feel like I do. Why did he come here to begin with???

         I'm not at all worked up about JGainesia's comments.  I'm just pleased that we have members posting from the New Zealand/Australia area to give us cool expressions like "#%@!! Plonker".  Thanks NZ 440RT!
