Ricer

To take a motor vehicle, usually a Japanese import such as a Honda Civic and give it the ugliest fucking body kit ever. Examples include:

A spoiler taller than a semi truck
A muffler or "fart can" with a bigger diameter than a rocket engine
Fake eBay rims
Slammed suspension
Extreme camber
An obnoxiously loud sound system
A vehicle wrap/paint job that costs more than the car did originally

If any "performance" mods are done, these are only limited to an eBay cold air intake or an eBay turbo, usually bought for under $500. The demographics of ricers are usually aged 16 - 20, the age in which many first get their license. People often rice their car to give them the impression that their car is fast, or they are just retarded and unironically think it looks good.
Person 1: Look at that fucking honda dude

Person 2: God damn ricer

Supra

Possibley the most overhyped car on the face of the earth. While it is a very receptable tuner car if you can somehow manage to get hands on one, in it's stock form is no more than any other RWD car with equivalant power.

It's a good, fun car no doubt, just not as great as 12 year old fanboys make it seem.
12 year old: Wow! Look! A Supra! 1000 hrspers!

Me: Bitch please thats a stock automatic non turbo supra that don't even make 300

e9X

In car culture, e9X or e9x is a collective for the chassis codes of the BMW 3-Series produced from 2006 through 2011, being:

e90: a four-door sedan
e91: a five-door station wagon
e92: a two-door coupe
e93: a two-door hardtop convertible

e9X is used to refer to these vehicles collectively by car enthusiasts because those vehicles are very similar mechanically and share many parts
BMW's e9X platform is popular for being available in many body styles, and are cheap to buy used.

Hybrid Turbo

Short for hybrid turbocharger, a hybrid turbo functions similarly to a conventional tubrocharger, but features a small electric motor on the shaft to reduce tubro lag. While this may not work as well as systems like anti-lag or two-step, it is generally cheaper and more reliable. It's also less of a cop magnet, as a hybrid turbo doesn't produce backfire as often. The term has nothing to do with a hybrid vehicle

Unfortunately, hybrid turbos are hard to find, and generally don't come in a kit
Mechanic 1) I'm gonna turbo my car!
Mechanic 2) Nice, you thinking anti-lag or...?
Mechanic 1) Nah, I'm throwing on a hybrid turbo.
Mechanic 2), Pfft, good like finding one bud!

Pinochet's Helicopter Tours

A joke popular with people who oppose communism or socialism (or otherwise any kind of planned economy), referencing how former Chilean army general, Augusto Pinochet was notorious for throwing the dead bodies of commies into the ocean out of a helicopter.
Person 1: Ya know, Marx was right, we should abolish private property
Person 2: Heh, you should sign up for one of Pinochet's Helicopter Tours

burble tune

A modification done to a vehicle, which intentionally causes the vehicle to backfire (unburnt fuel entering the exhaust). Unlike other forms of automotive tuning, a burble tune offers no gains in horsepower or fuel efficiency, and is in fact more likely to cause catastrophic engine damage and accelerate wear and tear.

Often done by teenage poser car guys who are too broke to afford mods that would actually increase the performance of their vehicle.

While a proper, high-performance tune may cause a car to backfire more than stock due to running more fuel and boost, a burble tune is specifically done only for the bops and bangs caused by a backfiring.

Person 1: look at that POS GTI! It's backfiring like crazy, must not be running right
Person 2: nah, it's running fine, asshole just has a burble tune
Person 3: running fine? with a burble tune? Not for long...
