    sorry wormgod, its nothing personal, i just read the subaru forums because im considering a subaru as my next vehicle and all of them have their heads so far up their own arses that they are gonna need windows put into their stomachs so they can see where they are walking...
    I think what Wormgod meant by "rice' was in regards to people going overboard with useless mods on vehicles in the sense that it's SUPPOSED to create this (rally) image rather than function. It drives true autoX/rallyists up the wall, as well as the everyday person, because people that don't understand what true performance enhancing mods are can't understand or respect the difference. To many, they are nothing more than ridiculous eyesores.
    There are some Subaru jackasses out there as well, ricing out their wrx's instead of autoXing it or just being happy to have one of the best all around street cars that come stock.
    Hood scoops and spoilers that come on Subarus are performance inspired, beneficial additions. Although they might not be totally necessary to most of the everyday owners, neither are a lot of the features that come in a lot of vehicles.
    However, it does get way, WAY more ricer than that.

    so, changing a vehicle because you like the way it looks is ricer now?? because im pretty sure most VX owners bought it because of the way it looked

    oh, im very aware of the purpose of the spoiler and the hood scoop on the subaru, im very very interested by the subaru, i love them and think they are great vehicles. i just dont understand why the owners seem to think they are above everyone else...
