LOL! Du vet vel egentlig ikke hva en ricer er for noe, gjør du vel?
Nå er jo ricer et ord som vi har adoptert fra amerikanerene, og da kan det være på sin plass å få litt hjelp fra den andre siden av dammen til å definere ordet "ricer". Husk at det er mye sannhet i en god spøk

Denne karen sier det nokså klart,

"I agree with what people are saying,
These ricers give import racers a bad name. alot of japaneese "ricer" cars are actually d**n good sports cars (Supra, NSX, skyline ($$$$) 300zx, 3000gt etc...)"
Som du ser, det går i grove trekk ut på at man styler bilen sin med ting som de fleste andre enn ricerene selv syns blir for mye, og ikke minst for jævlig.
Videre kan man se at fokuset er på utseendet på bekostning av motor og kjøreegenskaper.
En fyr med en originalt utseende NSX kan nok ikke beskyldes for å være en ricer, kusker man rundt i en streit Concerto kan man ikke kalles ricer, men om man fiser rundt i et glassfiber-palass av en Civic med 90 hester, så vil nok ricer-stempelet passe.
Du ser forskjellen...?
Jeg vil muligens finne på å kjøpe meg noe amerikansk (Mopar, åffkårs

) som bruksbil senere, om jeg finner noe jeg kan leve med i praksis.
Det vil si et relativt lavt bensinforbruk, en viss grad av driftssikkerhet, akseptabel grad av kollisjonssikkerhet, og gode nok kjøreegenskaper.
Men dette er noe japsene er veldig gode på å kombinere...
Desto lavere utgifter jeg har på bruksbilen, desto mer kan jeg legge i Challengeren. En avveining mellom fornuft og hobby.
Forresten, man kan faktisk rice en amcar, bare se her:
Og til slutt vil jeg bare si at jeg hadde opprinnelig mest lyst på en sportslig japansk sleeper, men mye takket være en svart Dodge Charger 500 og en svært tolerant holdning fra eieren så jeg amcarlyset!
Hadde jeg bare møtt "ha-ha, dummer ricer-boy"-holdninger, så skulle jeg ikke hatt amcar, uansett faen. Gidder ikke å bli assossiert med den slags folk...
