All of this can easily be explained by a report that 20/20 is doing next month. The cause of the phenomenom that you call "rice", where a car appears to be one type and is another can be explained by a mystic phenomenon known as spontaneous trim level transformation. The exact cause of this phenomenom is unknown, but the details are all too familiar to all of us: the driver of a Type-R, GSR or Si awakens to find that his powertrain, and interior have been mysteriously downgraded overnight. All that remains of his car's former trim level are a couple of VTEC stickers and a badge. The involvement of Alien forces have not been confirmed or denied in this shocking phenomenom. Although any import owner (there have even been reports of domestic occurences) is vulnerable to Spontaneous trim level degredation, the phenomenon seems to mostly affect socially challenged youths who's cars are in their parent's names.

I can't wait to see the report next month. Anyway, I suggest you all try to take this with the seriousness that it merits.

Oh, what the hell...

I HATE RICE!!!!!!!!!! These posers make us guys who really HAVE what our stickers say look bad... aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!!! If I get asked ONE MORE TIME "Is that really a VTEC, or just a sticker?" I'm gonna snap! "Wow, JG Engine Dynamics, how'd you get that sticker?" Did it occur to them I sent the damn motor to California and THEY SENT IT BACK WITH THE MOTOR!?!?!?

*breathe in with good air, out with bad air*

Ok, vent over... I'm ok now...

I think I heard about that syndrome. As I understand it, this phenomenom most often occurs to High trim imports that are parked outdoors.

I think that they have actually linked high performance trim components to mechanisms necessary for intergalactic travel.

Please park your high trim level cars in a secure place.
