A small vehicle that's big on ignorance. Usually laden with asinine "mods", like garish plastic ground effects that were never painted to match the rest of the car, a giant whale-tail even though it's front-wheel-drive, and a fart-can whose sound encourages everyone to turn and laugh at the driver.
This phenomenon is sad, really. It may have resulted from the fact that stupid consumers flocked to front-wheel drive, despite the fact that these cars handle like a sled on concrete and AREN'T WORTH MODIFYING.

Back in our parents' day, kids would save up to buy an old Chevelle and work on it until it was a V-8 powerhouse.
Today, most of that demographic has been replaced with spoiled brats who think they can buy performance in the form of stickers and a subwoofer. Instead of wasting their money on these laughable ricers, they could have scoped out Auto Trader for a great muscle car and owned a classic.

Any group of white suburban teenagers whom drive cars (that they think are fast once loaded with mounds of useless non-preformance inproving parts)that their parents bought them. (noted for their inablity to pronounce race as it comes out as rice)

A compact car, usually of Japanese make, that is often fitted with stupid looking accessories like rear wings, stickers of racing parts that you can bet are not even to be found on the car, body kits that scrape the ground, clear tail lights, and a noisy ass exsaust that sounds really annoying. Often painted in polarizing colors or patchy-looking primer. These cars are strictly for youngsters.
Ricers are, for the most part, far more show than go.

Guy 1: Look at that ricer
Guy 2: What, the Honda with the body kit and ginormous wing and blaring exsaust?
Guy 1: Yep

An Asian car modified to look fast without going fast. Including but not limited to, exhaust tip (not exhaust or cat back), rims, bodykit, cardboard, tape, glue. Ricers do go into the the territory of hoopties. However hoopties are a much worse case. DOES NOT apply to American or European cars as RICE originated in Asia. Any American car that meets the descriptive definition of a Ricer is considered automatically a hooptie.

Slow cars that look ugly. Ricers have very little power. Ricers are cars that people will put mufflers on that make the car sound like an angry pack of bees, cold air intakes, body kits, big spoilers, and oversized rims on.
Them ricers thought they were cool doing burn outs at the red light until alittle ways down the road i passed them in my truck.....only doing 90 and it looked like they were standing still.

A person with a horrendously funny confusion between style and substance. Not all ricers are fuckwits, the ones who get their Civic DX and put 20"s and lawnmower exhausts on them are.
Ricer: Civic DX, complete with fart pipes, neon lighting, completely stock engine, and 8000 decals including a Ralliart one and a Mugen one next to each other. Non-painted aero kit.
Not a ricer: twin-turbo RX-7, with modest rear wing, 16" alloys and good tires. No aero kit. Maybe a limited-slip. Non-audible blow-off valves on turbo. No carbon-fiber to be seen. Good-sounding exhaust
REALLY not a ricer: 1955 Willys-Overland Pickup, 35" BFG M-T'S, Mercruiser 350, NV4500 5-speed, true 4WD, Detroit lockers.
