If you're trying to offend a handful of the members here you're doing a good job at it. That isn't the first car it's been done to and it won't be the last I'm sure. So try and get used to it.... :cssNET:

Its not bad at all once you loose the stickers down the sides. And if 4 cylinders with duels are rice then I guess GM has rice straight from the factory. Remember the Sunfire GT? It had duels right off the assembly line. Just make em real by running another tail pipe is all.

Although I would NEVER drive something like that, it would be cool minus the flame decal. The term rice is so over-rated and misused. Beauty is always in the eye of the beholder. That is my point. I guess I am old skool but rice, or rice burner used to mean "Japanese Import" and it referred to cars and bikes. Gm is obviously trying to appeal to the younger generation with this car. Not all of them care how fast it goes and that body kit may appeal to them. It's not like they are trying to clone it into a SS.

why's everyone getting all worked up?? it's just the damn razzi lip kit with a cheesy decal... take off the decal, and it's not that bad...

The term "rice" is overused.....I dont think there is anything rice about that cobalt.... I would never buy one cause I dont like the way it looks and i care more about go than show...and what is wrong with dual mufflers?? It is mostly for looks, there is nothing ricey about it..... I perfer single exhuast and tip for inline motors but v-type motors, I perfer duals, but there is nothing wrong with dual mufflers. It is not going to effect backpressure because it is NOT dual exhaust. It still has ONE pipe going to the back, not two, then goes through a y pipe to the mufflers. But you guys do need to watch how big of piping you go with because it can effect perfomance if there isnt enough backpressure. Bigger pipe will also take away low end torque and power but 2.5" pipe with one muffler and 2.5" pipe with 2 mufflers aint going to make a differance.

AGREED... I mena seriously, if this car doesnt appeal to the youth market, they'll kill the supercharge and stuff like that. Its all taste. I mean yes the decals suck, but take that off and all of a sudden a base balt looks jsut as good as my SS/SC. Not everyone cares or has $$$ for more than a base balt!! comme on guys, suport ure fellow base balt moddifiers.

Exactly. Thanks for pointing out my thread.

But this is once again proving my point. Something that looks different and it's not even owned by anyone and its "rice". When I was going to open up the pictures, I was expecting it to say Z24 or something on it (some type of misbadging) but its an LS Sport with a Razzi Kit on it and a graphic...

I think I am officially "Anti Anti-Rice"

Seriously...like alot of people on here have room to talk. You'd think this was a Ferrari Forum or something.

Yup, my 2003 Sunfire had dual outlet stock as well ;)

No problem, I just think all this 'rice' termanology needs to stop. I feel you're right NJHK. You should make a Anti-ANti-Rice club or something, lol.

I expected what you did, but with a body kit on it...I didn't think it was rice. I just don't like the kit.

the front end on the razzi kit is so damn ugly

it would be a pretty nice kit if it wasn't for that...

they should maybe contact RK Sport about designing a front lip for the car...

EthensCobalt 11-24-2006 11:37 PM

What you said doesn't make it any better or right. What you call spending money on is stupid, to others it might not be. If someone chooses to buy this car cause it looks nice, whats wrong with that? I know alot of people who like Porsches who know squat about Porsches but like the way they look. Does that make them "rice" or in your words a stupid asshole?

Honestly, why do people care so much about what other people have on their car? Whats the fascination about it? I've yet to hear a logical explination that didn't sound childish or just incredibley mean.

That is why your topic "The tuner generation" should be like a home page topic or something. I agree. X2
