My Ride: 2004 E60 530i all options except, nav abd HUD
Default

Super loud exhaust, 22' rims a spoiler that would better fit on an aircraft, an X-box or Playstation installed and all this on but not limited to a Asain car. Altezza rear lights on a Bimmer look Ricey. A spoiler that is more than 1-2 inches off the tail end of any car looks Ricey. Just so happens to be that the majority of the cars that have these stupid ass upgrades are Hondas and thelikes...that is how the term Ricer came about. Generally speaking an Asian Bike is called a Rice Rocket so the cars have loving been adopted as Ricers

The problem is, that we don't have enough practice.
We can understand it perfectly. But writing and talking is not easy when you don't have practice.

Hey, I am just happy most Germans I speak with don't try to take my head off when I kill their language! I once said good night to a neighbor's wife only to be told by her husband the next day you only say it that way if you are sleeping together.!! I feel happy when a German comes to my rescue and helps me out. Wish I had leaned the language when I was younger.

I used to speak German whenever I took trips to Germany in the 1980's. I took German in high school and it was very fresh in my mind so I did very well. But as time went by (and without practice) I forgot a lot of it. So since the early nineties I have not even bothered trying. Besides, in my experiece almost all Germans that I have ran into speak English very well. The only exception that I have found to this is when I travel to Berlin. There are more people there that don't speak English (mostly middle aged or older), but I think they are probably former East Germans who (I assume) did not have any English classes in school in the communist DDR.

Let's put it this way, if someone speaks only English the best place to be in the continental Europe where they can get away with English is Germany. Well, maybe second best.....the best place to get away with speaking English is actually Holland.........IMO

The twin turbo Supra is the "Anti-Ricer"...Ricer. I have read about better than 1000hp gains from those beasts. Please post pics after you get her fixed up and Dyno'd.
