lol. I guess you gotta be a bit rice to spot them all. I'm just judging based on that fact that it visually seems pretty subdued -- I can't tell

Wolf,
If you're right then that Cav is pretty depressing. But its the crazy wings, home modified hoods, neon... just the spirit like the guys are just begging to say "OMG, really?" And they know who they are! Sometimes Nice Walmart Wing! |

Actually without ricers and stupid rednecks and their stupid trucks and lifted SUV's, I wouldn't have nearly as many cars to laugh at while driving... and that would be unacceptable.

I really doubt any of us hate Japanese cars. Anyways, we're not hating, just jealous

YES! I saw it down at a Walmart Supercenter in NorCal around Christmas time. They wanted $120ish for it. I just did a search on their webpage, though, and I can't find anything auto related except tires.
It exists! Looks just like that. I think. I wasn't *cough* serious on a buy or anything now... |

Now in order to avoid sounding prejudice... the majority of ricer's I see actually are Japanese cars. Hondas to be exact. The reason you may say is because of the owners. Everyone who modifies a Honda is clearly a stupid kid who thinks his car looks good that way....
The reality is he cannot afford a nice car to modify so he does RICE (race inspired cosmetic enhancement). After his car has been riced out (fart can including) he's going to find out sooner or later that when people point his car they aren't admiring it or thinking it's awesome; they're laughing at it. Hopefully that gives him the mod bug IN A GOOD WAY and he drops the heap or even returns it to stock so he can start saving up and learning about really modifying a car. The fact is that ricer's aren't strictly Japanese, it's that older Japanese cars (not just Honda's) are pretty cheap, not to mention the subject of the original fast and furious. And to be honest nowadays I'm seeing riced out versions of the new edge mustangs (mid-late 90's), and other cars that are cheaper to buy than they used to be. Simply put, ricers (in majority) are older cars that kids get for cheap and since they cannot afford mods/lack mechanical ability they cannot build a decent car. Thus, ricers.

my definition of rice- over the top cosmetic only mods that make a car look ridiculous/annoying to look at.
a big gt wing on a 370z would be considered rice, if not justified that it is a track car and actually needs that thing. |
