ITT Auto truths that are hard to swallow
>people only bash """ricers""" because they are the largest auto enthusiast group
The only reason I haven't bought a Civic is because I want to be a special snowflake.
>>14287366
holy shit i thought i was the only one
ive driven a few civics and they're very very good, they rank very highly for me up there with miata
but both civic and miata seem too common i want to be special
its hard life
>>14287359
I think they get bashed for putting fucking wings on fwd cars, all that's gonna do is make your car slower, same thing with putting giant wheels. All you're literally doing 90% of the time is making the car worse.
>>14287359
Eh, they are an easy target but it doesn't help that half of the mods they make to their cars only make them slower and look fucking awful
>>14287366
The only reason for me is Type R EK is LHD only so I couldn't overtake.
>>14287377
>thinks people put wings on cars to make them go faster
>thinks a rear wing doesn't benefit a front heavy fwd car
>>14287359
People bash "ricers" because they're tools.
I actually like imports and domestics
>>14287519
>Mexican rims
>bro'd out bronco that needs a monster sticker
kill urself
>>14287359
I don't mind ricers, actually. They're enthusiastic about their shitbox and aren't necessarily stancefags.
>>14287519
We're talking about the bodykit, CAI, and fart can guys, not japanese imports.
>>14287519
Legacy was sold in NA too
>>14287536
>being this booty blasted about someone else's vehicles
How is it being a literal faggot
>>14287582
What's it like owning two literal pieces of shit?
>>14287538
Because they aren't aware of suspension modofications.
>>14287366
>>14287375
What about a del sol or crx?
Same car with a rarer body style. A clean crx will get plenty of compliments
>>14287812
There is one CRX in my entire province for sale and it's in terrible shape.
Maybe an RSX Type-S would be cool.
>>14287592
Fucking amazing
>most ricer minded people are just kids
Swallow harder, faggot
>>14287536
>rims
ITS A WHEEL, A WHEEL. GUZZLE IT HARDER DAMMIT.
>>14287359
>people only bash """ricers""" because they hate Mexicans
ftfy
>>14287359
Jeep fanatics claim that they are tough, but we all know deep down that Jeeps are inherently self-destructive and the name has only persisted because of said fanatics.
>>14287359
I bash ricers because they're gaudy, expensive, place functionality last, and 4 cylinders sound like shit
>>14287375
Get an RX-7
>>14287375
>civics
>good handling on par with miata

>22/01/2016
>the day /o/ considered WTCC teams "ricers"
>>14288051
It's because o is full of brohards that don't actually know anything about racing
There is literally nothing wrong with driving automatic
>>14287359
people bash ricers because a lot of them do stupid shit.
Now this is fine as long as they know its stupid but want to do it anyway. But most ricers just copy other stupid shit they see and the cycle continues.
>benchracers are no-car bus cucks
>drivetrain shitposters can't drive well enough for it to make a difference to begin with
>>14287622
Ignorance is bliss here. I'll take a fuckwit in a riced out CE series Lancer/Mirage over a stancefag who thinks getting his hellaflushed entry level BMW stuck on a speed bump is a "lifestyle, bro".
>>14288098
Nothing wrong with it but it doesn't hurt to know how to drive manual either.
>>14288262
>why does your miata look so rice?
>it's like n-niggers, embrace it!
>did you just say nigger?
>>14287359
I enjoy being considered a ricer. it's like black people and the word "nigger" to me.
Japanese car culture has become a lot more about just doing what you like and being accepting of other people's choices with their vehicle, rather than making it a big dick contest that is often present in American or European car fans. At least in my experience in southern California, this has been the case.
Obviously a lot of people on this board shit talk and stuff, but in person I know that we would all at least be interested in each others cars, if not like them. A lot of my friends have cars that are in bad shape or might be considered a bit ricey, but I feel that it adds a lot of character to the car and reflects the positive and creative personality of the owner. Anyone who wrenches on their own car or takes care of it mechanically garners my appreciation and admiration, regardless of whether I like the car or not.
Pic is my meme on the mountain pass.

>>14288379
yeah I read through it and realized it was fucking awful so
>>14287359
How can I add a spoiler to my car without it looking too tryhard?
>>14288098
You can't be competitive in a slush box auto. A dsg?yeah a nice one
>>14288619
>you can't be competitive with a slush box auto
is that why 99% of competitive drag cars are 2 speed autos?
>>14288332
Man I like Miatas but 6'4 height doesn't seem fun in one. Barely fit comfortably in my cressida
>>14288604
Keep it clean and simple. At the very least make sure it suits the car.
>>14288710
Should I get a factory style spoiler then
>>14288692
I'm 6'2 and the only issue I have is head room and forward visibility. The actual seat adjustment leaves more than enough leg room, but it's the upper body space that's an issue, especially with the sun visor blocking your view.
>>14288728
Pretty much, yeah. Big aluminum spoilers are basically full rice mode.
>>14288728
Are factory style spoilers, save for giant ones like on the Evo, ever functional?
>>14288675
>comparing two different automatic systems
IS IT TRUE THAT MY NINE SPEED AUTO BIKE CAN COMPETE
>>14287359
FWD is bad
>inb4 they're the same
No one who has driven a decent RWD can say there isn't a noticeable difference
>>14287377
>I watched that top gear episode where they said putting an f1 rear wing on a fwd car was counter productive
>>14289001
Yes, but there's a difference between a spoiler and a wing.
>>14289155
Why does rwd keep losing when everything is equal?
Bangle killed BMW designs for good.
>>14289155
I fully agree.
>enjoy RWD in winter faggot
I put 3-4 bags of pellet fuel in my truck and it's alright.
>>14289174
What's the difference
>>14289188
STOP POSTING YOUR PHOTOSHOPPED CIVIC FWD CAN NEVER COMPETE IT CAN NEVER EVER EVER COMPETE RWD IS THE BEST SYSTEM
FUCK OFFFFFF!!!!!!!
>>14289204
Jesus christ autistic rwd shit posters
>>14288710
i'm sorry, but what's the car in the front?
No, people bash ricers because they look like fucking retards with their incredibly lowered, cambered shit box with a gigantic wing spoiler and fart cannon exhaust. I've never even heard of the argument that they are the "largest auto enthusiast group", that's retarded.
You know what is the largest auto enthusiast group? Probably fucking Top Gear's audience, not the shitty American version, BBC Top Gear, Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, James May, they probably have the largest auto enthusiast group in the world watching them because it's fucking top gear.
>>14289204
fwd fags are now posing as buttmad rwd fanboys, interesting.
>>14289232
>rwdfags insecurity at an all time high
>>14289204
Both you FWD and RWD niggers can suck on my AWD master race cock
>>14289240
can't hear you over the sound of my delicious power oversteer
>>14289244
as a RWD fag
yeah awd is probably better overall. just wish it was a little lighter. and available in small 2 door sports cars instead of hopped up econoboxes.
I don't believe fwd is bad just because it is fwd
>>14289264
>icy road
>no skill fags think this is drifting
It's your bed time underager ;')
>>14289222
Silvia
>The box said 10 more horsepower
>>14289275
Dude.
Have you seen the Jaguar F Type? Sexy as fuck and they make an AWD model with two doors!
>>14289275
Now that I think about it, a lot of two door sports cars have AWD
Mercedes Benz CLS 550 4MATIC
Mercedes Benz S 550 Coupe 4MATIC
Jaguar F-Type S AWD
Lamborghini Huracan
And plenty more
>>14288027
I wish.
>FC3S never
>>14289341
none of those are small
>>14287366
Me too, anon, that and I want to do sick drifts
