My simple answer:
Cars that are not done tastefully.

agreed, you have to do it were it doesn't look like you sent 5 bucks on the parts. put some time and effort and it wont look like rice a roni. if you put a little effort in to it will look right and things hav to flow. can't go from pink on the front to black on the back unless you make it flow right, I don't know how one could make it flow like that but hey if you can all the better for you.
strong effort ussually mean quality, quality normally means it's going to look good. put all together and you have a non riced out vehicle.

I always thought it was when you spend all your money to make it "look" fast, rather than actually making it fast, and still think its fast b/c it "looks" fast.

That accord wouldn't be nearly that bad if he had the car painted with those graffics instead of sticking them on. but the exhaust on it isn't that bad off.
definatly could use a set of rims. and a body kit that compliments. he at least has a V6 in it.

Some people rather spend their money to make their car look nice and don't car as much about how fast it is.

Yeah I agree, but thats not what I said.
I know many people that put insane amounts of money into thier cars for looks, but they also dont go around acting like they are fast. Its the people who think they are fast b/c thier car looks fast even though it isnt, those are the ricers.

Yeah but "ricers" dont make their cars look "nice". Ricers make their cars look gay. A show car is not a "ricer"

UH-OH I think we have another contender for the x-prize
I think that is just a little overdone. Maybe if he found a smaller kit and hood it might go well with the doors......and the car.

a ricer......well, when you car is screamin sounding like a vacume machine and is going no where. when your intake looks like pvc. when your front end looks like its about to ake flight. these are just a few out of the many many defintions of a "ricer". but..... the worst of them all is when a 4 banger honda is sitting at the line and reving on a V8 GT mustang..... thats when you know it's a ricer.

my definition of rice, is when you get things for your car that show that you got them just for the sake of it. you didnt take an consideration for how they would look, or how they would effect the performance of your car. or people that buy things that their friend's, cousin's step brother's nephew's sister's friend's uncle said he had on his car, and made it faster. those people are ricers too!

rice = pretend your fast, when you're getting beat by me chuggin along with 91hp at the wheels, in overdrive
its one thing to work on the appearance, we all do, wether it be lifted, lowered, bodykits, whatever.. but i've seen all to many "in progresses" they shouldn't have pulled out of the garage so soon... like the mismatching body kitted cars with loud exhausts that try and race each and every car on the road, with there automatic 4cyl muffler'd out race car
