OK ... i know these get posted every so often ... but I found another HORRIBLE example of RICEDStangs. Ya know ... how come most of these tend to be 6 cyl cars?? Is it one of those "making up for lack of something else" things? :shrug:
Oh well ... post em if ya got em!

I initially had your reaction to the car, but on second look it really isn't too bad.

There's no adjustable race wing, or big stickers or graphics all over the car. The paint job is uniform, and non-tacky, with no weird flames or stripes or areas left primered or carbon fiber.

The Shogun bodykit isn't my taste, but they don't have neon running lights, spinners or anything like that mounted.

There isn't a shiny CAIK and a 5" after-muffler exhaust with the owner claiming they'll let him run 13s, when he gets everything working right.

Basically, the owner's not pretending that it'll go fast when it won't, or done anything particularly tacky with it, which is how I pretty much define Ricer. Without the Shogun kit it'd look like your average street Mustang with a custom paint job.
 
i would tend to agree with jasonlee but GOOD GOD those wheels are hideous...and i DEFINATELY agree about making up for lack of something else with the six banger lol. i saw one riding around town yesterday with like a 6 inch cowl hood :shrug: not cool
