I thought I'd compile a conversion list for people who are reading this site for the first time, or are old school Mustang owners and are new to the late-model Mustang scene.
Send me your others to add to the list. This is supposed to be humorous folks, don't get your panties in a bunch.
Code:
New School Old School muzzy = stang, but how is 2 syllables easier than one? vert = convertible for lazy typers sick = ultra cool SE = Special Edition [typing patience again, I think] ricer (car) = import tuner car or any car with the import-tuner look. ricer = driver or owner of a ricer auto mods = modifications OR the Moderator of the forum (context!) bullitts = Torq Thrust style wheels Bullitt = green Mustang with Torq Thrust's chip (verb) = to modify the computer with a new chip chicks = chicks (at least we agree on something) fart can = oversized useless exhaust tip, aka Folger's Can IRS = Independent Rear Suspension Internal Revenue Service = IRS NOS = Nitrous, Gas or "the bottle", aka Nitrous Oxide One that I thought we should be using here: squid = stupid newbie with too much horsepower (from sports bikes)

Ricer actually has less to do with the car being an import or not, and more to do with it having certain aftermarket parts.

I'll modify it, though.

Why "muzzy"? You are shortening a 2-syllable word into, what, 2 syllables?
They are "Stangs" to everyone who owned the 65-73 models. And to most people who drive the 79-2004 models as well.
Muzzy sounds like an Australian nickname for a piece of female anatomy...
After all these years,

I can't bring myself to call it a STANG.
It sounds like a redneck talking about getting bit:
I got STANG by a bee...

I had thought "ricer" was the lazy form of the old-school term "rice burner" -- a derogatory term used to refer to Japanese "cars," specifically the early models that Toyota, Datsun, and Honda tried to pass off as vehicles. For that reason, I cannot bring myself to call any American car a "ricer," even if it has all of those useless add-ons; those I call "stupid."
