[QUOTE="nofearfactor, post: 2370837, member: 1535"] Your typical "ricer": - Huge exhaust that serves no purpose but to make the car louder - Extra large spoiler on the back of a really small car that looks like something Boeing made for the 747 - Lots of after-market company stickers they don't have parts from, but they must be really cool - Super expensive rims that usually cost more than the car itself - Bodykit to make the car appear lower - Clear tail lights and corner signals - Most of these riced cars (a.k.a. "rice rockets" or "rice burners") are 4 cylinder but sometimes 6, imports, and usually front wheel drive: Honda Civics, Accords, Integras, CRXs, RSXs, Del Sols, Eclipses, Lancers, Subaru Imprezas, but there are also some domestics such as Chevrolet Caviliers, Dodge Neons, Ford Focus; etc. Basically a small, slow, economy car designed specifically to go s l o w. Cars like the rear wheel drive Supras, Skylines, Infiniti G35s,37s and Nissan Zs, and even the WRX's are examples of high performance imports that were designed to go fast, and are not usually considered 'rice'. "tuners": Its not just import car fanatics who are tuning, alot of racers as well as performance junkies (including muscle car guys) are 'tuning' these days, but some do take it a little too far.
