If you don't like them, great, that's your opinion, your taste and you're perfectcly entitled to it. Luckely different people have different tastes or we would all be driving the same car in the same color and fighting over the same girl.

But calling them Rice... no I'm sorry, I don't think they qualify as such.

Ricer [risse-urr] N.
[Ricer: from the latin word Ricarius meaning to suck at everything you attempt]

A person who makes unecessary modifications to their economy sedan (mostly import cars from japan hence the term "rice") to make it (mostly make it look) faster. The most common modifications are

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 saw on cars in the Fast & Furious
Cold Air Intake- a tube that feeds cold air to their high performance hamsters.

Most of these riced cars (a.k.a. rice rockets or rice burners) are imports; Honda Civics, Accords, Integras, Mitsubishi Eclipses, Toyota Camrys, Corollas, 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 there are many high performance import cars as well that are designed to go fast that are often mislabeled as "rice". Such cars as supras, skylines, wrx', NSX, Evo IV, etc.. fall into this category. Unfortunately, in today's world cars like this still must be handled on a case-by-case basis.

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. (example: mexican=mini trucks; african americans=escalades; etc..) These crackers are also known to talk a lot of **** about their cars too. The best place to see a ricer is in his native habitat, any mall parking lot.

Any combo of 4 or more of the items below classifies the car as rice.

Huge spoiler
Neon glow underneath (street glow)
Many meaningless stickers
Japanese writing of any kind
Racing stripes
Silly-*** body kit
Lowered to far
More than one exhaust (that came with only 1 stock)
Huge stereo
