I don't give a s**t what country the car was made in. Putting performance parts and/or upgrading the appearance on a pos econobox (that includes neons) is still considered rice
. Also, reserving the term "rice" specifically for Japanese cars seems a little racist
.
This is pure 100% fail!!!
Going by your point of view all the post ww2 vets that came back and bought model t's and model A's crammed buick nailheads in them and went to the salt flats are ricers. Let's take a look at some rice and do some name droppin Shall we.
Ricers: AKA econo box's from the past

Mr. Norm's did the Mopars
Yenko did chevy's
And the worst ricer of the bunch:
Shelby took a econobox mustang and turned it into a American icon!!! Then twenty years later built a four banger that was faster than anything else you could buy that year With the GLHS Omni.
I guess by your standards I will proudly wear my ricer badge. If putting the most power I can into the smallest, lightest package I can get hold of is rice, Hot Rod mag should change the name of there rag to Ricer Illustrated. Now excuse me while I go find a Gremlin to put a LS6 and 6 speed into.
) is still considered rice

lol


Sorry, that was the first thing I thought of when I saw it.
