What cars do you like better? American muscle cars or ricers. I say ricers are gabage.. I don't know why anyone would drive them.

Holy shit you are confused on definitions.  Ricer does not mean all Asian cars, only the ones that put looks (bad at that) over giving the car more go.  There are plenty of well tuned/modded Asian cars that can beat almost anything American.

I thought the same as the OP for awhile.

I like Japanese car's. Not Ricers. Car's like the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord. And nice Korean car's like the Hyundai Sonata. There isn't even any chinese rice car's over here unless they are imported.

Why would someone want to pay for a Chinese car?  Reliability would most likely be horrendous.

You would be surpised, most cars these days have half there parts made from there.

Unless its a rebadged car from europe, japan or america, i wouldn't get a chinese vehicle though, they tend to get lower then 1 star safety rating.

So basically:

Parts and Rebadged vechiles made there = ok

full vehicle designed and made in China = bad

I don't know why you would call foreign cars "rice."  Certain ones are riced out like the Honda's with different tailights and shit but no performance parts to it.  That's rice.  But just a foreign car being flat out rice, that's retarded.  

And I hate to be the bear of bad news, but from what is going on right now with gas and American automakers shutting down due to poor sales, American Muscle won't be here much longer.

Actually it seems like it's on a Camaro body.. hence the American.. and with an Integra front.. but if it's not.. I fail at life. :(

And people where I live seem to associate Integras with ricers..

I personally like the GS-R trim. ^^

As far as I'm concerned, American Muscle died in the 70's.

I think American sports cars usually have nice horsepower, but their style's aren't that impressive at all.(If you are talking 90's to 2000). I would buy a Japanese car for mainly style and secondary horsepower. For instance i don't think the Mustang is that great of a car, so many people have em and the corvette, well they never seem to really look any different each year(in my opinion) so they are boring to me too. However cars like the Toyota Supra, Mazda RX-7, Nissan Skyline are sick in style. However i do like the Dodge Charger, Dodge Viper, and the Fire Bird.
