Default When Rice parks... does other Rice gather? Has this Ever Happened to You?

We are all ricers whether we like it or not, but one day I was parked in the mall parking lot... far FAR away from everyone else. When I come back to my car, I see THIS:



A Porsche Cayman S and an Evo IX parked next to me!

This was 2 days ago (also at the mall), another LS parks infront of me:


And then last week, a 35th Aniversary parks infront of me:


Probably the psychological explanation behind this is:
"OoO.. this guy knows what's up, I'll park around him since he wont force me to call Ding King the next morning!" Or perhaps I just attract a lot of ricers in general because I am afterall... the Ring King.

The LS owner pictured above is actually a girl. I ran up to meet her after she got out of car while pulling into a parking spot infront of me. She's chill as anything, cute, drives like a guy, can't wait to mod her car, and will be hanging out at the local meets. More pics to come!

Edit: For those whom have trouble w/ their sense of humor and take things either too personal or too serious: I do not actually believe these cars are "Rice" as generally known with "riced out" cars, they're very well respected classy vehicles

I bet the Cayman S owner (stock from the looks of it, right?) would be thrilled you put him/her in the Rice category

I wouldn't say we are all ricers... the z has class and the performance to back it up. Honda...doesn't.

I would do the same, if the corner is taken by a nice ride, I’ll park next to it. It is logical to think that most likely the owner of this nice ride is not a complete douche, and will not ding my door since he is worried more about dinging his. As a matter of fact this morning I parked in the far corner next to a nice Porsche.

There are exceptions. Respect diversity.

Guilty here....

I have my personal reason why I tend to park my rice mobile next to the others though. It's just like those little fishes in the ocean. They never travel alone, they roll in packs. Chance of survival is higher when you do that.

The ricers at my company's garage..

no its more a sense of respect another guy will park next to yours knowing he will be careful of getting out the car unlike other dousches when they get out and slam there door into yours and say whoops oh well. Its like having a unknowing gang

This is so out of topic bro. So where are you from exactly that no one bashes no one?

first off, the cayman s is definitely not a ricer...(it was stock!) and people do like to park next to hot cars when theirs is hot as well.

Yeah the explanation is simple. All the car guys go for the corner spot, or the furthest away spot as to reduce the risk of damage. When we see that another car guy already has the prime spot, we park next door because we know at least the car guy will take some precautions as to not screw up both rides.
Makes for nice pics though!

Im not sure of anywhere where no one bashes anyone. As far as the honda bashing - its a honda. Power vs Weight only matters to people who own hondas.
