Yes. Not Asian. Some guy called me a ricer the other day. I was more confused than anything but I was a little offended.

It is a silver '76 280z. No stickers, no coffee can, just a modified engine.

I am a "ricer" cause I drive a Japanese car.

Only pic I have. The only appearance changing mod I've done is change shocks/struts and springs which lowered it 1.5". In the future the bumpers will be removed and fender flares and an air dam will be added. I still wouldn't think that would be "riced out".
Edit: Oh and some rims/ wider tires.

It's offensive to real car enthusiasts and people of good taste.

Meh, ricer isnt offensive at all. And ricers know when theyre doing it...amongst their own crowd, it obviously isnt a bad thing, so how offensive can it be?

Then again, can you really "rice" a neon? *Waits for first disparraging neon comment*

I never heard the term before I came to ATOT.

I'm asian and not offended, because although I put mods on my car, but the "riced-out" cars simply don't appeal to me

I'm part asian, and I dont' find it offensive. I'm a member of the RSX club and I've found that ricers are shunned by even other japanese car modifies. If theres nothing under the hood then it doesn't get respect.

Piss on anyone who thinks it's offensive, I say.

Stupid people probably find it offensive.

I, OTOH, find stupid people offensive.
