Am I a Ricer? Options

[BlackCelicaGT94]

So everyone on here knows (or now does) that my car has most of the GT4 LOOK. however it seems that 1 out of every 10 people calls me a ricer cuz ive made my car look like a gt4. But when modding my car it was never "oh im going to fool people and let them think i own a gt4" it was more of " everything besides the gt4 kit is so aggressive and not really my style so im going to keep it clean" but its just frustrating to be called a ricer. I hate when people say its badged a gt4 when its just on the spoiler posts and its engraved in and I know doggy made some replicas but i wanted the real ones. So thats the only part that I guess I could have done some work to and shaved it or something..idk.

Anyways so am I a Ricer because my car is kitted with the GT4 look?

this is a celica forum, what do you expect people will say? although some are already telling the truth, like that guy that said the 6g celica is already rice from the factory (USA spec). Ofcourse we dont get the fancy 3sge/3sgte like the rest of the world does.

Rice varies from community to community, person to person, depending on who you talk to and what you talk about. To me, doing and over-doing silly things on your car is rice. When all that money going into aesthetic/cosmetic could've gone into the engine.

I've been around here for a while, and im telling this from a non-celica owner that most of the people on here are rice. Body kits, expensive heavy rims, expensive paint jobs, jdm parts, god knows the list can go on and on, and i've been around here long enough that after-market parts for the 6gc is not cheap.

Personally, if i'm not a full time college student, if i have a stable job, financially fit, and have saved up enough money for my first major mod, I would've swapped in the top-end monster 3sgte in a GT or a 4age and turbo that s.o.b in an ST. Don't assume that i hate body kits, decals, big wings, etc, i love them! but without the "go" with the "show" it's pretty much rice to me.

Rice is also how you act, but that can be discuss in another lifetime.....

Now, whats your phone #? j/k....j/k
