VNS 24 Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 (edited) 1. Rice car - An automobile, generally of import classification, that is souped up and characterized by use of stickers and decals that do not match any manufacturer of the car, spoilers that look like airplane landing gear, and hideous paintjobs and fart cans.rocket. 2. RICE - stands for Race Inspired Cosmetic Enhancement. Originally, for me, either Cobalts or Neons are not rice cars. But if someone do the above things to ANY cars, then it become a rice car.

And for some reason drift really good too Do you think actually being fast means something is not a ricer? That would mean a 400hp Silvia is not a ricer. I disagree. Ahh underground.... The main reason I've always wanted a skyline. The main reason I think Cobalts and Neons are ricers...

Turboterrorist Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 they are just good old fassion "shit" Lol, definately. The Cobalt turbo makes 260HP though. Can any non-Japanese car be a ricer from the factory? I think these are.

WTF are you talkin' bout, Willis? Rice comes from Rice, as in the stuff that Jap cars run on. A rice mobile is a Japanese built vehicle that's covered in shit. It's not an acronym. By the very definition a Cobalt or Neon can't actually be a Ricer as they are not built in Japan however I think the term has broadened to capture any vehicle which you typically see which is as slow as a wet week and tarted up like a slurry getting ready for a night under the red light.

VNS 24 Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 ... Rice comes from Rice, as in the stuff that Jap cars run on.... What are you talking about? ...A rice mobile is a Japanese built vehicle that's covered in shit... That's exactly what I said. ....By the very definition a Cobalt or Neon can't actually be a Ricer as they are not built in Japan however I think the term has broadened to capture any vehicle which you typically see which is as slow as a wet week and tarted up like a slurry getting ready for a night under the red light. So first you are saying only Japanese cars can be riced up, and then said any vehicles can be riced up?? FAIL.

joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 i'm pretty sure that the "race inspired cosmetic enhancement" acronym was invented well after rice was a common term. imho, rice is rice, whether the car is US, EU, JP or UK etc etc Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/358303-are-chevy-cobalts-and-dodge-neons-ricers/#findComment-5727387 Share on other sites More sharing options...

So first you are saying only Japanese cars can be riced up, and then said any vehicles can be riced up?? FAIL. Nice comprehension. You said RICE is some shitty acronym. It's not. The term Rice came from the early 90's and it was a derogatory term to describe JAPANESE built cars which were slow and covered in wings and stickers and shit. They were called Rice cause they were Japanese built and "ran on rice" which is also taking the piss. Technically a US built car can't be "rice" as it was not built in Japan (where cars run on rice) however the vernacular has now expanded to include all cars which look like a harlot after a night on the Breezers. So I'd say in this day and age the Cobalt and Neons can be considered Rice.
