When you are sitting in the college parking lot waiting for class, and some moron sits across from your parking spot, and keeps revving till 9000 rpms.

Ive tuned and modded all my cars in good taste. But the ricer attitude soils the passion of the tuner. I currently own a ATS powered MR2 that puts down 305hp and 290 lbs of trq. is that rice? well its a 4 banger and its a Toyota, it has 3inch piping exhaust and much more, and its loud. so by some peoples definition it would be, while others would consider it a well executed tuners ride. so again i say its all about attitude.


Oh and one more thing Ive raced many blown maro's and built vettes with my TT supra and I always said if I ever go american Im getting a Chevy. cuz they were the only cars that put the power down. Ford always saw nothing but tail lights. So 2SS/RS here I come

If the performance is stock and its some little NA 4 banger with tasteless visual 'enhancements' its a ricer. If you've made a well performing import that has exterior mods that would actually help it, then thats a tuner.
x2

Domestics and imports alike are capable of putting serious power down to the road, but rice doesn't discriminate between import and domestic, unfortunately.

I agree that the import community is not without its share of ricers. but what about the many who believe that the american V-8 is gods gift to engines. there are those who i believe that are no different in "attitude" about muscle than those who are ricers. Ricers think that small displacement motors with cai and exhaust are enough to blow the doors off a vette. then there are those who think an american V-8 car is king of everything. the attitudes between the two are so similiar yet they are on both ends of the spectrum. Not being able to admire what either side brings to the driving world is ignorant, narrow minded and border line racial bigotry IMO.

If you go to change your oil at night, and there is already a neon light illuminating your pan...you might me a ricer.

If mash the accelerator of your car at the light and it sounds like your car is farting...you might be a ricer.

If you think that a bass guitar sounds like a rattling spoiler...you might be a ricer.

If the graphics on your car look like the Las Vegas Strip...you might be a ricer.

If you've got $40k to spend on a car and you buy a Camaro...you might be a redneck. Oops! How'd that one get in there.
