    Default What defines rice?

    I got into a friendly argument last night with a guy at a bar regarding my car. He is definitely not a car guy, but felt compelled to tell me that my car was a ricer. That got under my skin a bit and I proceeded to tell him all the ways my car was not rice. After I convinced him that it was not rice I got to thinking myself....what defines rice? I know the park bench wings, the lime green paint with tribal graphics, the over the top colored interior.....they all scream rice. But what defines rice to you all?

    Discuss. KThxBye.

    I normally would be going to Hooters D, but I am going up to the IA Gainesville meet tonight with GKTib®. I haven't been to a G'ville meet yet and seeing as how I live there I figured I'd make this one. You should come bro.

    rice
    Pronunciation:
    \ˈrīs\
    Function:
    noun
    Etymology:
    Middle English rys, from Anglo-French ris, from Old Italian riso, from Greek oryza, oryzon, of Iranian origin; akin to Pashto wriže rice; akin to Sanskrit vrīhi rice

    13th century

    : the starchy seeds of an annual southeast Asian cereal grass (Oryza sativa) that are cooked and used for food; also : this cereal grass that is widely cultivated in warm climates for its seeds and by-products

    hope this helps in your conquest of knowledge on what rice is

    We did have this conversation yesterday? I must have missed it. Were Tibs in the conversation? Or mine in general?

    No just how there are haters everywhere...not a certain car specifcally or anything...Just in general. And how people have ignorant opinions...

    I hate on just about every single fwd car made..but I still give credit/respect where it's deserved(not that my opinion means anything)...

    Anyone who calls their US manufactured left hand drive car "JDM" is rice. Come to think of it the whole obsession with JDM is rice

    in my opinion there is no true definition of rice. reason being, everyone has their own interpretation of rice. some say body kits, wings, neons are rice. others will say that those things are just something that is synonomous with show cars. othres say that that certain paint jobs are rice. all again depends on that person interpretation. everyone has their own definition of what is rice and what is not.

    hell, the way things are going. the whole scene could do a reverse and go back to body kits, neons, wings, etc. and everyone saying that the whole "JDM/OEM" look is played out.

    if one person says one thing is rice, another might say its bad ass. so you can never give a true definition of rice as its to each their own.

    ^^^^ Excellent interpretation. I'll agree that it all boils down to personal preference.

    I always say this,

    Rice isn't a car, it's a way of life. Now days people use the term rice so loosely to represent something that isn't their style, that not rice, that's you hating (unless that person is driving reckless). I see rice as a person that takes a slow car (such as Civic CX) and tries to race, or a person who revs for no damn reason at a red light as a ricer (no matter what car). It's gets on my nerves whenever people see a car with a bodykit (that's nicely done) and roasts it just for having a kit. Seriously, the term RICE is killing the car scene, because noone wants to mods there car. Now, all you see are cars slammed on oem rims because they are afraid to do something different due to the term rice. DJ Maestro, your car is nice, ****'em if they think your car is rice. I see if your car was big bird yellow with black rims, then it would be Da Gay. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL {j/p GTtib}
