Officially a measurement of the energy released by an earthquake, this is often used as a measurement of anything extreme. Something described as 'Off the Richter' or 'Off the Richter Scale' is particularly dramatic.

Get the Richter Scale mug.a car that is customized to the point of extreme overkill.
some rice upgrades:
Fart Pipe Exhaust
clear lights; NOT on a Toyota Altezza
weird graphics
enough sponsor decals to stone an elephant from the glue
roof scoop (on a front-engined car)
ground effects body kit that is still the same color as the car it was previously on
false custom from grill; badge pried off with a flathead screwdriver
Le-Mans caliber spoiler, just looks crappy without *good* body kit
neon lights (different colors on each side, under the front and back)
black hood/trunk (not a real carbon-fiber hood, just interior painted)
rims that are too large or painted a completely random color
low suspension caused by cutting of the shocks (bad idea with convertibles, because hitting a speed bump can shoot you over the Empire State Building)
spinner rims (on anything but an Escalade? COME ON)
people often think that some cars are immune from ricehood. not true. here are some examples of good cars, and what could make them rice.
Nissan Skyline GT-R R34
white car, red muscle car stripes, blue rims, double roof scoop
Toyota Supra Mk-4
purple car, skull on side, black hood
'96 Impala SS
"Donk" style (fugly)

Get the ricers mug.This also applies to any car part from Japan, especially motors. Even if they offer no benefit over those available elsewhere (or are actually worse due to parts availability and shady importers) ricers will pay HUGE amounts of money for them. The tax is only increased if the motor was ever mentioned in an anime or used for early drifting.
You could build a B20 frankenstein motor with 225hp using parts from a CR-V and Integra for junkyard prices, but ricers STILL pay thousands for a worn out, probably stolen 200hp "JDM" motor.
Then there's the JDM wheels and body parts, which can cost thousands for no benefit at all. Ricer Tax is especially huge for JDM wheels, even if they're tiny, ugly and offer no benefit over a decent set of aftermarket wheels.

Get the Ricer Tax mug.a Military Base.
There are more concentrations of Ricers at a Military Base than no other.
The only vehicles that "win" are tactical vehicles, and that's during combat, not a street race. The rest of the vehicles completely lose in every street race.

When I visited a military base, I saw Ricers Galore! Everywhere I turned, there were ricers! Ricers beside me, in front of me, parked over there, EVERYWHERE!!!!
You know, our soldiers can win battles but usually never Street Races!! Why? Because the car they usually race with is just a ricer!!
If there were street races there, the few Mercedes and BMW imports in the race are the winners in the end.

Get the Ricer mug.1: N A poorly upgraded car with a tacky exterior (fart cannons), 2' wing, unpainted/poorly designed groud effects, seizure-inducing strobe lights and LEDs).
2. N: Any person who talks up their car without having anything to back it up. Although there are a FEW domstic-driving ricers, the term usually implies a person (of any race) who drives a 4 or 6 cylinder car and tries to make everyone think it is fast.
3. See also MORON

I was f*cking with that ricer sitting at the halfway point on my gas-pedal and staying by him, and when I actually stepped on it he called me a cheater and said I juiced him. LOL what a fucktard!
