    You know what's really funny about it. Half the people that others are calling ricer really don't give a shit and have no clue what the term "rice" means. Cause they aren't part of the "tuner world" they just mod their car according to what they like and what others around them think is cool.

    the whole "rice" thing is retarted IMO..personally i think that if a person likes to do certain things to their car, for exeample: LED's neons floor matts halo's altezza's body kits fogging out lights wings, vinyals. that is their choice if they like what they have dont to the car, like the way it looks then thats what matters, no one else's opinion, i know i for one, if i do those kinda things or did those kinda things, i wouldnt give a flying shit about wat othe people thought of my car. thena gain there are some cases where people are going to want to listen to other peopels opinions. doing that tho even if its the "right" thing to do to your car, its not really expressing individuality, i mean granted that can only go so far cuz there is only so much one can do to their car. but why make it in the "scene" where everyone does the same shit and not their own ideas'

    Rice is to describe people who have no sense in modifying a car. Period. This lack of sense usually leads to them respecting speed but loosing focus on it and trying to make their car LOOK fast instead of be fast.

    The typical ricer will favor FWD over RWD because, "rwd spins out too much" and modify a car just to modify it. Some cars are simply not worth being modified if your objective is sheer performance -- ricers DO NOT understand this. Basically they are ignorant about the techinical aspects of performance and speed and focus on trends instead of the real deal which is performance.

    Real gear heads, either Import or Domestic fans, will always have a common denominator which is performance.
