alright im sick of the word ricer... i admit i have used it a couple times, but i really dont like it! i mean anyway, what is it supose to mean? is it someone who spends all their money on the looks of their car?? because in that case im a ricer. or is it someone who has altezas or whatever and has chrome rims?? and if thats true then is someone running 11's with altezas a ricer? i just had to get this off my chest...

meh its all debatable. bad taste, flashy cosmetic crap, with no performance back up. its attitude too. ricer fly-by's, stop light engine rev's, racing every car that looks someone modded/driving 3mph over speed limit. i dunno...

Rice is a wing thats 6 foot tall. Rice is cutting stock springs. Rice is a huge decal on the front saying RICE! Oh and believe me ive seen that before. Rice is the bling for bad taste and the term will prob never go away.

A Ricer is someone who would rather have an unpainted body kit installed with zip ties, than have a motor that runs properly. A Ricer is someone who has so much neon light shining off their vehicle, it put the Vegas strip to shame. A Ricer is someone who thinks that an RX-7 can be a Type-R, and not to mention have DOHC VTEC. A Ricer thinks their "Carbon Fiber Tint" is actual Carbon Fiber. A Ricer thinks changing taillights ups their Street Rep'. A Ricer thinks any place is a good place for a street race... Even rush hour traffic on Market Street. A Ricer will try to convince someone that their SOHC D-Series stock Honda engine is in fact, a JDM Type-R engine of some kind.

Now, I've got a TON of respect for an individual who can create a good show car... This does not include installing a $150 Ebay body kit, Altezza Taillights, Projectors Headlights that don't even fit, 19" Chrome Wheels, a "custom" paint job that looks like it was done with house paint, Ebay "Racing Seats" that fall apart after the first hour or two of usage, let's not forget the portable DVD Played taped to the dash to give that "custom in dash" look. Now, like I said, I have a TON of respect for a true show car builder. Not a person who half Asses a 1989 Honda Accord and calls it a show/race/drift/drag car. I have respect for ENTHUSIASTS.

However, Ricers are not enthusiasts, they are not building a show car, they are not building a race car. Their car will always be in the "Under Construction" stage, so that they can brag about what's "sitting in their garage waiting to be installed."

As you can probably tell, I know Ricers very well. Wilmington is over run with them.
