to RICE or not to RICE? That is the question

Just curious everyone, what is the true definition fo a ricer? I own a Mustang GT (enemy) and spend a lot of time on Stangnet.com Forums. People overthere refer to imports as "ricers". Now I come to these forums and I hear you all refer to other imports as "ricers". I was a little confused when I saw that.

No, I am not one of those idiots who automatically hates all imports because I own a V8 American Musclecar. Personally I love sportscars in general. That is why I bought my RX-7 becuase of its "sports potential".

I know this is a dumb question but would just like it to be cleared up.

Thanks everyone and I hope I do not ignite any flames.

Most people around here consider rice to be any mod done without taste. Example: You see a little Honda EX, slammed with a huge ugly useless wing, horrible paint job, usually with stripes that dont match the car, lots of stickers, with cheap body kit and no engine mods who drives around like he's Michael Schumacher on the streets almost killing everyone on the street and giving imports and racing a bad name.... Heh.. That ran on a bit Any car can be modded tastfully. Rice is simply the opposite..

a lot of people call anything rice, people call headers on an N/A rice, they call stripes rice, they call matching parts rice, they call neons rice. Really too many people are too quick to call wolf (rice)
I try not to call anything rice but it happens. Just ignore most people

I don't really like the aluminum wings on geo metros... How about lots of useless crap that came from the land of the rising sun...all over it.
