To rice, or to soup up a crappy car with the mistaken idea that type 'R' stickers and performance yellow paint makes it go faster.

All Show...No Go! Modifying a car that is a piece to begin with, and doing nothing but body work to it in the end. Most likely loud, and unreliable.

cars believed to be cool by thier owners and only their owner. the kind of cars that dumbasses will equip with neons, 3 ft spoilers, and 10 inch "performance" mufflers.

Making improvements to a system that don't actually do anyone any good, and can sometimes have negative ramifications
Encoding videos at 300FPS when humans stop noticing the difference after a fraction of that, that is ricing in the pure sense.

Rice is a term used to describe a trend in the modern, American, car culture. An offshoot of the true underground street racing scene of the late 80s, where people want to become a part of the scene, though they were never really involved in it at the beginning. So when some one puts what would be considered Rice on their car it is in an effort to fit into the image of the street racer. The cheapest way to look like this way is with purely sensory modifications, Altezza lights, large muffler tips without any exhaust modifications, wild paint, wild body kits, spoilers, mismatched badges and stickers, large flamboyant rims, excessive stereo, etc.
Anything that would appear to add performance, but inreality does not.Though any care can be “riced” it usually occurs with sport compact cars both domestic, and foreign. The ricer modifies his or her car to please others, rather then himself, they are more concerned that their car looks fast, that if it is fast.
