Ricer is defined as:

(Ricer: from the latin word Ricarius meaning to **** at everything you attempt)

A person who makes unecessary modifications to their most often import car (hence the term "rice") to make it (mostly make it look) faster. The most common modifications are (but not limited to):

- Huge exhaust that serves no purpose but to make the car louder

- Large spoiler on the back that looks like something Boeing made for the 747

- Lots of after-market company stickers they don't have parts from, but must be cool

- Expensive rims that usually cost more than the car itself

- Bodykit to make the car appear lower, usually accented with chicken wire

- Clear tail lights and corner signals

- A "performace intake"- a tube that feeds cold air to their engine usually located in areas of excessive heat (behind or on top of the engine)

- Most of these riced cars (a.k.a. rice rockets or rice burners) are imports; Honda Civics, Accords, Integras, CRXs, RSXs, Del Sols Mitsubishi Eclipses, Lancers, Subaru Imprezas, however there are some domestics such as Chevrolet Caviliers, Dodge Neons, Ford Focus; small, slow, economy cars designed specifically to go slow. Please note that some Supras, Skylines, WRX's and other higher performance imports are designed to go fast, and are therfore not always considered rice. It really depends on the severity of the case.

The "ricer" attempts to make their car "performance" by adding the modifications listed above. These ricers are not confined to any one ethnic group or color, however different ethnic groups are known for certain styles.

Honda Civics with big spoilers and 4" exhaust tips are considered to be ricers.

Now with that car having the Turbo, nitrous, fluidyn parts, etc. Its in NO way a ricer. Its tacky looking, but not a ricer.

Fast and the Furious 5 set car?

Well, that was an informative post, but I refer to anything in that nature as a rice burner.

I bet that Civic would run circles around alot of cars here and a fast 1/4 mile track time as well. Nothing ricer about it.

I dont know why anyone would spend their money to do they to a car.

I'd spend that much money on a car But I'd probably pick a different car.

Nonetheless, definitely one of the best looking honda's I've seen. Pretty impressive.

Supra Head Lights + R34 tail lights?

lawl.

Doesn't look bad. But, if you want a Supra, buy a Supra. If you want an R34, get an R34. Stop trying to make your POS Civic EX look like a hydra.
