Originally posted by typhoid mary As long as there are ricers the term rice will always be around. If you like widebody ecliipses then fine that's your thing and good for you if you've made into magazines. Thing is that typically if you want in a magazine with a DSM your not going to get it unless your car has some sort of body kit. I'm not saying this to offend you but seriously look at the magazines and tell me how often you see a DSM without some sort of body kit or a exotic paintjob. If they didn't put cars like yours in magazines then companies like bomex and blitz would not pay for advertising. Stock body styles don't sell advertising space.
I don't exactly understand what your point is. DSM, Honda, Nissian, doesn't matter what you drive, you wont get magazine coverage without signifigant work period. Your right, people want to see cars they don't see on a regular basis so why would they publish a stock body ANYTHING. What I am saying is, DEFINE Rice!! then have everybody else define rice. I bet you anything, you all have various opinions on what rice is. Like I said, I have buddies that own Trans Am's that would call you Stock Body Eclipse Japanese Rice. Rice is a term used by the uneducated and the ignorant. Not to question your education level, but do you actually know how the term came about or do you just say it because you here everybody else saying it.
