SPOT THE RICE!!!!
Hey guys, well I thought I'd start a little thread that we do on Southern California Imports forum called. Spot The Rice
Basically, If you see a car that you think is Riced out or anything like that, Just snap a picture and post it on here. Try to take actual pics of cars you see while driving around and stuff. I always have my camera in my car just in case I see a ricer. I'll start off the first post with a car I saw and a few other random ones I've seen. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I have more but ill stop here and see what else everyone has or sees.

ah come on that star wars one is a work of art...
I see quite a few ridiculous modded cars around here, I'll try and take some pics later.. Still, whenever I see these kinds of threads, I feel bad for the cars' owners... they must be proud of their cars no matter what, as proud as we are of our little bugs... Oh well, it's still fun to laugh at people

nah the expression "ricing" came from the original nickname of imported small-engined japanese cars, "rice burners"
Over time it just evolved to describe cars modified in such a way that is over the top, all show and no go. For example, huge rear wings on a civic (front wheel drive car does not really not that much downforce), huge, noisy exhausts that make a horrible sound, or other half assed mods like HID lights that are not set up properly, badges that belong to a completely different car or brand (for example, a Honda Type R badge on a Toyota, or BMW badge on a Geo as seen in the first post), and other stuff like that. Nothing derogatory against asians though

well not if everyone of your mods actually serves a function (and its not just in your head, aka +hp) or if the mod would make your gf/wife or really even your mother say "that does look better"

Not all of my mods serve a purpose, but I like them, and that is all that matters. None of them take away from the car, so I wouldn't call myself a ricer yet. If I ever get an adjustable rear wing, name me accordingly.

I guess he figured that a FWD car does not need so much rear downforce, so why not reverse the wing and lift the rear instead? brilliant!

I remember back in the day there was a car club in Findlay, OH that was all Geo Metro' a couple of them actually had turbo 1.0L 3cyl, funny shit. They all thought they were king shit.
Also there was a car club in Adrian, MI that was all neons and they thought it would be cool to rebadge them as Vipers, and get Viper keys and all... now that was some rice rice baby
