would you have prefered me to use the word educated or any other word describing a lack of knowledge?
i have been wrong plenty of times. the comment i was refering to though was just pretty ignorant imo, and typical of a lot of subaru owners who think awd automatically means their car handles better than most other cars out there. i am not here to start any arguments, just pointing out a pretty significant error that someone posted. if you would like i can edit my post so it is a little "nicer"

fire extinquishers are a good idea in a car... you never know what can happen, and when a fire extinguisher might help. Engines get hot and there are flammable liquids that might combust. It's one thing to mount the fire exinguisher somewhere visible and looking out of place, i would agree thats rice, BUT its another to just have one in your car somewhere for safety reasons.

i used to always keep a small fire extinguisher in my old prelude. however i kept it in the trunk and not mounted on the a-pillar. glad i had it to. as i was in the middle of no where once when i threw a rod and it put a hole in my block and i had flames coming out of my engine. thankfully i had an extingusher to put it out.

you should just state your opinion and not comment on her how smart she is or what she knows.
I see no reason to put someone down if they have a different idea than someone else, or if they just aren't as knowledgable about something.

there are a lot of hondas out there that can outhandle an AWD car.
lets take a stock wrx and compare it to a stock 5th gen prelude
hmm if i recall correctly the prelude out handles the wrx, oh and look, they both come stock with re-92s

I owned a 98prelude before i got the wrx, but modded the WRX has a lot more options than a prelude... so i think it handles better,
infact i still have my prelude... so i might bring it to UCKK sometime before i sell it haha!

I know alot of people who are not into cars and we're in the same category as ricers. So we might laugh @ people that have ridiculous looking cars, but other people laugh at us. Who cares. If they want 2 spend their money on stupid crap, let em do it. I wouldn't mind owning a piece of APC cuz they're banking off retards who like to buy junk. 
There is some funny stuff in this thread though....

Wow. This is a topic that people can talk about for days... Glad it caught on!
People definately do have a right to do whatever they want to their cars, or anything else they own, but the same freedom that allows someone to decorate their possesions as they please is the freedom that allows the rest of us to make fun of what we see
BTW: The title of the thread is "You MIGHT be a ricer if..." It's hard to make something apply to everyone, but generally the statements are true
