"rice"

i don't understand why people with bad taste that put stupid things on their car are referred to as rice. or when exhausts have bumble bee sounds that they are referred to as rice. rice is obviously an term targeted towards asians but i don't see a whole lot of asians putting stupid things on their car, i do see people here and there but it shouldn't be stated that things are rice when there is no real relation.

this is a very good point, most of those bumble bee sounding cars are driven by young white guys who dont have a whole lot of money to dump into a vehicle that will probably doesnt even run well. I mean who has the nerve to stereotype.

so when people say "that exhaust sounds ricey", if they were to put that on a dodge neon, what does that make it then? i've seen it and i know that you've had to have come across it too.

how is it that a "rice" sounding exhaust can be put onto an american car, and then it is termed as rice?

Naw...if it is on an American car it is "wheat"...German car it is "sauerkraut" j/p

It is a general term to describe something someone has done to their car that is either cheap or in bad taste (course it depends on the describer's point of view and personal taste). Anyway...yes this subject is beaten to death.

we can say rice to whatever car we want.. it has nothing to do with asian people.. get it threw your head... when people say rice we are not trying to bring down a certain group of people.. its just a term

thanks to those people who slapped on the most worthless junk on their cars after watching fast and the furious, then took their mostly asian-based company economy cars and put this remarkably impractical **** on it...

sad to say it, but the muscleheads stereotyped it all and here no matter how low our 1/4 mile times are, no matter how much boost we run, or if our engines arent at least 3.0L+, those hardcore domestic guys will deem everyone ricers .... because those ****ers still exist
