The pyroboy on ebay's name is Robb and he used to be a member here under clubsporti or something like that. He is selling the car to pay for school. Don't know why it's relisted. __________________

I think any time that you have the opportunity to dump a rice burner for a real car then you should take it. | | | | | 12-13-2005, 01:22 AM | #19 | | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2004 Location: Manassas, VA Posts: 4,129 |

There are a few cars I call rice burners(hondas and other FWD pos's) but there are a few that don't deserve the lowly "ricer" status. The cars I have never called ricers are: Toyota Mr2, Toyota Supra, Mazda Rx7, Mazda Rx8, Nissan 300&350Z, Lexus, and Infiniti. These cars/brands are not neccessarily "rice" IMO, and they don't deserve to be bashed. I love euro's and american made cars, but prejudice only leads to BS and violence.

HA! You guys are funny. My car was a rice burner, but it was NOT ricey. Anyhow. I couldn't find a ti that I liked in the area, so I ended up trading it for this:  The number plaque is magnetic... for AutoX. | | | | | 12-13-2005, 04:39 PM | #22 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: state college, pa Posts: 3,431 |
I've only ever driven the previous model of that, but it rode like on rails.
Could only fit a loaf of bread in the trunk, but if the chick riding shotgun is hot, it don't matter. __________________

Andrew | If it comes from Japan its rice. Real cars come from Europe. I guess you wouldnt know much about marque loyalty any way since your name is S10mafia on a BMW site. | | | | | 12-15-2005, 02:27 AM | #28 | | Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2004 Location: Muncie, Indiana Posts: 1,551 |

Including the turbo MR2s and miatas. | | | | | 12-15-2005, 02:29 AM | #29 | | doesn't care about you. Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Denver, CO Posts: 3,925 |
