to each his own, but to me,.. its just stupid and extreemly ugly. Mods should affect performance first,.. and any fire you breath into your vehicle should be felt not seen. "Rice" cars are for showoffs only.

And also, STOP CALLING THEM RICE CARS. WHAT THE F*UCK. ARROGANT A$$HOLE.

but it _is_ pretty safe to say that the car belongs to an asian, in particular a japanese individual. If you look at the demographics of the country, you might agree... 99% of the citizens are japanese and most of the last 1% are korean. I say that you are wrong about "Many foreign expats are there", unless your idea of many is a small percentage of one percent of the population.

Call me names, but I like the big Nissan Cedric/Gloria/Cima that is sold in Japan. With a clean aero kit, nice wheels, a bit of a drop and tinted windows, it gives a M-B a run for the money in the "evil car" look. It's not a driver's car, but as a road trip car or as an "evil car,"
I think it's just about perfect.

Then again, I want a souped-up S8 Tip as a road trip car, with at least 400-450hp. :-)

I can't say I'm an Audi snob or a German car snob like some of these name-callers.

Just got back from three week work/holiday stay in Japan. Eastern Japan (includes Kyoto, but mostly Osaka which is only 15 minutes away by Shinkansen) is a major hub for organized crime. Top bosses are driven around in Rolls, Bently, Nissan Presidents, etc. Those just under that tier, are still powerful, and may drive Mercs, BMWs, Porsches, Ferraris, etc. The low-rung thugs drive riced-out domestics. The lower you go, the scarier they are. That's just my observation.

For every grossly modified cars, there are many, many nice desirable cars which we cannot get over here. I saw lots of Honda S2000's (which I guess are now available here), Skyline GT-R's, Toyota Altezza (2001 Lexus IS200/300???).
