Ricer

(Latin term: to suck at every and anything)

The Car Guy definition: Mostly a non-car guy, who only got his "tuner inspiration" from fast & furious 1 - 4, and has form over function; to make a car LOOK faster than it truely is.
Even though he has visuals mods (spoiler/wing, exhaust, bodykit, etc), they do not function properly, especially when their car is slower and have terrible aerodynamics than what is expected.

And even when they do talk with Tuners and Sleepers, they have no knowledge at least on how to tune their car, making an embarrassment of their conversation.

*They don't need to necessarily keep on getting bullied for being a ricer, but just help them go on the right path of being an official, proper Tuner*
There are 4 types of Ricers:
1. Regular Ricer: Bought themselves a car that would be expected from any other car guy (ex: Subaru WRX STI, Mitsubishi Evolution), but focuses on showing their character from stickers and other visuals than tuning the car to make it perform better.
2. "Underground" Ricer: Bought themselves a car that is likely an Japanese Import (ex: Honda Civic Type R E9K, Mazda Miata Mk. 1), puts on the most insane things on the car to make it MORE COOLER THAN FASTER. This is worser than the Regular Ricer*
3. Rich Ricer: Bought themselves the supercar of their dreams (ex: Ferrari 458, Lamborghini Aventador), but mixes some traits of the "Underground" Ricer: puts on metallic wrap (sometimes crystal studded), ugly kits, HUGE Exhausts, and definitely neons
4. D.I.Y Ricer: Mostly poor, has a car from his mom or other relative (ex: Hyundai Elantra, Honda Accord, Nissan Maxima), only has the supplies in his home to make his car "look fast" but indeed is the most awful thing to the eyes. Just don't be this guy

ricer

An individual who is convinced that adding a bodykit and custom paint job to a car will make more horsepower than a well tuned engine.
Any car that has more stickers than horsepower is an obvious ricer.

ricer

A driver usually teenagers or young adult who spends NOT under the hood, but spend it on some stupid visuals to ruin the natural nature of cars. They are mostly seen riding in Imports, but sometimes you might see a riced Lamborghini or similar on the road. They also act like their civic are faster than a LaFerrari

For opposites of ricer, see tuner
I gave my brother money to buy a car. When he came back, it was a Honda Civic that looks like it was made by a child. He now says that his Civic is better than my Ferrari Geez... what a ricer.

Ricer

the common ricer is known to have a shit car with only cosmetic modifications no performance mods cosmetic such as body kits to lower their car turbo whistles and much cutting of their exhaust or adding a fart can, huge spoilers or "wangs". Ricers thinks their car is fast and can hit 3.34 seconds on the quarter mile. Their shitbucket cars will include badges that don't belong on their car. Ricers are a disgrace to car community. But Ricers arent just Japanese imports they can be any car (dodge neons, chargers, challenger, gtr, lambos, ferrari's) Anything.
Cars that look fast but are not with a lot of cosmetic mods are Ricers
