Wow what ugly Vehicles they are. I don't think they will ever pass safety here. I would hate to see how much they spent on those Ugly Ducklings.

Tpl, I don't know anything about "raceboys" started in California. The tuner cars of course started in Nippon, things are done very different there. The term "riceboy" doesn't target any specific race, religion, or sex. The term "riceboy" can be applied to the female gender as well, of course, that would then be "ricegirl"

LoL, so his Corolla can beat Supras and Skylines?

The CGs are nice and detailed, but the facial appearence and expressions are no match against other manga from Japan.

Note tho' how out of date the page is now.

Enough with the "politically correct" stuff already.....people have to get a life and thicker skins.  

If everyone has to "sensor" their thoughts/speech because of potentially hurting someones "feelings" everyone will be MUTE!

Come on people, get a clue and turn your attention/efforts towards issues that matter, like world hunger, disease, poverty, war etc.

Blizzard this thread was exhausted over a week ago... your goals are very noble but I doubt we can cure the ills of the world on a car based forum. And it's spelled "censor"

"world hunger, disease, poverty and war"  

Get a life, Blizzard, this is a CAR FORUM, not an bad news site for bleeding hearts. Life's tough and then you die.  

Let's let this thread die as it rightly deserves.

Thank You Ovr for that as it is worth a 5 to me. I agree completely with your thoughts. Let this thread pass away quietly and quickly.
