Rice rocket.
 
Guess what!? Got called a rice rocket by mustang and Brz owners. Stepped out of 7-11 today with my slurpee and 2 guys standing around my 2012 stock Pearl white sport/navi 6mt bad mouthing it. I was like wtf?:mad:

Let me see how your car looks like and i will say if u diserved to be called rice rocket.

Trips 07-05-2012 01:12 AM

I wouldn't take things too personally

I'd move on and enjoy the Z

EndyKwon 07-05-2012 01:24 AM

At the end of the day, you have a Z that handles far superior and is far quicker than the mustang and BR-Z can ever dream of. That is, if they're all stock. Don't worry about it!

biggestsack 07-05-2012 01:25 AM

They're just jelly my man :)

LakeShow 07-05-2012 01:28 AM

Yeah they are just hating! Haters gonna hate!

NuffZed 07-05-2012 01:29 AM

#1 Don't worry about about what Mustang owners think, it's not an issue.

#2 The Brz guy is wishing he had your car but needed someone who would listen to him whine (see above) and no one with a decent car was listening. (also see above)

Basically the more they comment about your car the more they are complementing you odd as it may sound.

Of course if you have a huge aluminium wing, louder exhaust than a B52 and rims with spinners you may have deserved the comment... :icon14:

lol, all i have to say is haters gon' hate man...the fact that they acknowledged your car to begin with is proof that they feel the need to make fun of someone elses car cause they arent happy with theirs in some way...and the BR-Z guy, well thats just fail on all sides considering where his car comes from

NuffZed 07-05-2012 01:43 AM

Great colour :tup: Forget about my wing comment all this comes down to is your car looked so much better just parked they couldn't take it.

SmallermouseZ 07-05-2012 01:48 AM

I like the 40th anniversary interior. The dealer said they can't change it even if i paid extra money...

Cafiax 07-05-2012 02:13 AM

haters gon hate :) ignore them. just be like cool story bro and move on

DarkJak 07-05-2012 02:28 AM

So they called what looks like a totally stock PW 370Z a "rice rocket"?

:inoutroflpuke: Looooool.. being called a ricer by a guy with a Mustang I can understand because of that domestic import hate thing... but by a guy with a BRZ? A stock Z would smoke that thing anywhere anytime... Not to mention your car is stock too. What's there to make fun of? People these days

Pauly 07-05-2012 05:03 AM

still better than having a clone car (mustang). they are hating, simply. i left my house and saw 5 sh*tstangs within two city blocks. i saw one 370 in the whole city since march since i bought mine.

br-z? (budget ricer Z???) idk

rxdo 07-05-2012 05:30 AM

If I dont get hated on by at least three people before breakfast I wander what the F im doing wrong.

IDZRVIT 07-05-2012 06:29 AM

I can't believe anyone would ever say that especially a Mustang guy.:rolleyes:

Are you sure he didn't say "Nice rocket"?

UNKNOWN_370 07-05-2012 07:19 AM

I would have walked by them rubbing my johnson and saying, "Damn it feels like someone is biting jock hard while unlocking my car with the remote in front of them." That usually makes guys feel like lil b1txhes. Works everytime.

lol win

Tribalpinoy91 07-05-2012 08:31 AM

I choose the Z over every other car in its class because of its rarity on the road, as well as its unique appearance. Not to mention it's Japanese and the low cost of ownership.

wstar 07-05-2012 08:46 AM

What's funny is, at least around here, I see more riced-out Mustangs and Camaros than I do import cars. There's still a few crazy-ricer civics floating around, but generally speaking all the really outrageous cars I see lately with stupidly-configured cosmetic wing/wheel/body mods are the domestics.

TerribleONE 07-05-2012 09:47 AM

<3 your haters

Nismo89 07-05-2012 10:35 AM

you know what they say.....

" Keep your Friends close, your enemies closer"

anthonyy 07-05-2012 10:49 AM

Yeah... some american "muscle" guys :roflpuke2:

Once at an in-and-out drive through, some guy yelled at my car, "AMERICAN MUSCLE BABY!!! JAP IMPORTS SUCK!!!!"

:facepalm:

Cmike2780 07-05-2012 11:14 AM

Considering the BRZ is going to be slow as f$*k, He probably thinks a Camry is a rice rocket. Come to think of it, it might have a been a compliment depending on how they said it. Big difference between "rice" and "rice rocket."

DarkZ 07-05-2012 11:22 AM

Was there rust flaking off from under the Mustangs differential and a group of hipster lesbians hanging around the Subaru? Don't worry, there will be. :tiphat:

Yeah, we dont seem to have to many here in NOLA either. Including mine, I have only seen about 6 or 7 on the road total since they dropped.

Coon-azz 07-05-2012 12:27 PM

This is just me, but this is the same thing I see with posers in the motorcycle community I ride in. I've been riding for over 20 years and I've come to enjoy many different makes and models. It's about NOT fitting in when you buy exclusive styles; rather than seeing yourself at every stop light. I hate it when HD "bikers" ride up and give me a thumbs up on my scoot until they realize its not a HD; its a honda VTX. Then they get pissed when I blow by them without even shifting gears; (1800cc's). To me, I don't care what kind of motorcycle or car you drive, as long as you drive! When I see posers bashing some dudes ride, I think, "this is why I hate so many clubs." I'd drive anything someone put in front of me to learn more about it and come to understand WHY they like theirs ride. I get all kinds. In fact, this morning on my ride in, I saw a 240 that looked like it was a Work In Progress. Still ran great and sounded sweet. Now, I'm not a big fan of the stock 240's, however, this guy did a great job on it so far. Knowing how much work goes into modifications ($ and time) I can appreciate his mod's on what seems like a small budget (just guessing only based on his appearance). However, I've seen some great Honda's, some great Ponies and others that I'd love to get to know. IMO, if you're doors are closed to just one brand, you’re a damn poser and might as well own a trailer queen. These are usually the inexperienced douc bags that talk all kinds of **** at the car shows... just stay away from 'em and enjoy what you got to its fullest. These are generally people who want you to be JUST LIKE them instead of being an individual. Be yourself and drive the Z. It’s a great car. Ya know, sometimes I win a race, sometimes I lose it. This car isn't the best (IMO) for straight line racing, but in the turns, I'm going to at least catch up or leave you behind. At the end of the day, enjoy the fact that you and someone else’s got to share the passion for hot rods. I think people are surprised when I congratulate them at the next light if they win. Hey, even if I win (that time) I try to pay them respect for all their hard work. You never know...next week that car that lost to you, could blow your doors off.

I think thats out dated now. "Keep your friends close and eliminate your enemies" works better for me. :tup:

GunMetal40thZ 07-05-2012 12:51 PM

Is it just me or does the BRZ look a lot like the Genesis coupe?

kenchan 07-05-2012 01:42 PM

next time just ask them which one's their cars and smirk at them, shut the door and drive off.

Nismo89 07-05-2012 03:06 PM

lol :bowrofl: now now dear sir, violence is not the answer :p:stirthepot:

Mustang owner was probably a redneck. When I think mustang these days, I think retired person or redneck.

Which part of NOLA you from? I live on the westbank (Marrero), but usually drive all over the city. I actually havent seen any pearl whites like mine but a couple of silvers and black 370's. :tiphat:
