What's on your mug?

Aiight most of you retards on here got it wrong. The term "Ricer" was originally used as a derogitory remark towards Asians. Then the term was used to describe Japanese motorcycles. From there it carried over to Japanese compact cars. Now it's used to describe ANYONE with ANY CAR that puts insanely gaudy shit on their cars that serves no real purpose other than to attempt to make it look good. It doesn't apply to people who are "all show and no go" unless that person truly believes that their all-show $2G body-kitted, $6G paint job, $3G wheels havin'... let's say '99 Civic Si (because the poor car seems to get riced the most) can beat my 432 HP 398 TQ Eclipse GSX. There's nothing wrong with a Civic, Integra or other cars that seem to get the worst rep because they've been riced so bad. I mean shit, I've seen a built B18C powered '92 Civic hatch SMOKE a Viper. SMOKE. BAD. But now if it was, say a Ford Probe with a GT-R badge and a crappy weld-on muffler trying to race a EVO 8 because he thinks that muffler added 50 HP and is louder than the EVO's exhaust, well, he's then a ricer.

V6 Mustang with Saleen body kit and Cobra-R wing ANY CAR with spinning hubcaps ANY CAR other than a Nissan Skyline GT-R with a GT-R badge ANY CAR that has a body kit before having put on wheels AND an exhaust AT LEAST ANY CAR that has an after market wing/spoiler without body kit/wheels/exhaust Anyone who drives a Civic Si and doesn't know what Si and VTEC stand for Unpainted body kits ANYONE who thinks their car is faster than any I4 just because their car is a V8 (go learn how bad an EVO and WRX STi can smoke you... stock) anyone who pisses on imports just because they're cheap to buy and cheap to modify (no wait I'm sorry you are just fucking stupid and ignorant wastes of skin) anyone who thinks that by adding an intake and exhaust to your Civic/Integra/RSX blah blah blah will make it blazingly fast ANYONE WHO ADDS PARTS AND DOESN'T SOMEHOW TUNE THE CAR TO GET THE MAX BENIFITS FROM THOSE PARTS ANYONE with a weld on muffler on stock piping I can go on forever... I'ma stop now

1.anybody that jumps on the drag racing bandwagon who tunes their japanese/european import front wheel drive car for drag racing, and thinks that drag racing is the only type of competitive motorsports. also, anyone who bases their judgment of a car based on horsepower and 1/4 mile times.

driver 1: you wanna run? driver 2: i grip race, i dont drag race. driver 1: ...(thinking)... what are you talking about? driver 2: nevermind... drag racing ricer

One who rices. Rice is derived from elitist white motorcyclists who labeled the lighter, faster, better handling Japanese sportbikes "rice rockets." From there, the "rice" moniker spread to Japanese cars, and now applies to any cars which have ricers as owners and modifiers. The object of ricification can be any vehicle. The modifications performed must be showy and over-the-top. Most ricers are strictly into the show aspect of import tuning, and therefore drive overburdened and, plainly, ugly vehicles. Other ricers are ricers simply because of their attitude, which revolves around bikini contests and general lack of automotive knowledge. Ricers often hop on a bandwagon, which may include tasteful modification, simply because it is "in" at the time. However, it is easy to see that they are truly ricers at heart.

The entire fanbase of the Teckademics video series. A 1992 Honda Civic with 19" wheels, a huge wing, a Black Widow bodykit, a windshield banner... and an automatic with no engine mods.

Any Asian import car that has been modified for show or performance (or presumed performance). Although some like the Mazda RX-7, Toyota Supra, and Acura NSX are very capable cars that are superior to most of the shit coming out of Detroit since the 80s, most are economy cars that are poorly modified with cheap shit from Pep Boys.

Whoa! Look at that awesome Honda Civic with a 4-inch tailpipe, huge wing, and euro lights. I bet it owns at the track. Wait... you mean it's not National Sarcasm Day!?! Well forget that then.

Most of the pictures that are situated alongside this word. A POORLY modified car that the driver tries to make seem cooler, and making a asshole of himself at the same time. Not always some-one who modifies exported cars, theres nothing wrong with that...and who-ever says it is usually is gelous they drive around in shitty salons. Standing out is not a crime, but in cars like those in the pics...it is...

haha, Look at that f***ing ricer! What a shit car!
