I have no idea, the term Rice bothers me though, and I think a lot of people are using it wrong.

The stock looking G35 coupe with the skyline badges and the sinister sounding BoV that I saw a few months ago = Not rice

The early 90's Toyota Corolla with the huge aluminum and carbon fiber spoiler, 3.5" chrome exhaust lined with red LED's and the Type R badges on it that I also saw a few months ago = Rice.

I guess my point is IMHO the term Rice should be used for JDM cars that are all show and no go. If the car has go to back up the show then it's something else.

I live near Seattle and I see lots of strange things wandering around on the streets, some good some bad, but nothing makes me smile more than the sound of a BoV coming from a stock looking car that never had a turbo from the factory, and I get that once every few months up here.

Rice = Japanese in general. The G35 is a pingy rice burner in a slick looking shell. Cars should sound throaty.
