in Australia it is called 'sex spec' which is a better term than ricer imo, racial argument aside.

it never really went away, the scene just changed, arguably for the better.

gone are decals, chrome, swoopy body kits and big stereos.

now its one of a few different kinds of builds:

- factory optioned/certain trim spec low-key styling
- time attack inspired (big wings and lots of aero stuff)
- drift missile/pig (ugly rear end beat to poo poo cars, no fucks given sorta attitude, basically skateboarders with a drivers license)
- slammed

everything will pull bits and bobs from each of these styles to some degree.

basically the ricer culture has gone from form over function to (perceived) function as form.

depends how you look at it because people are definitely building nicer looking cars these days than say the early 00s but its also been distilled down to essentially a scene-approved 'best' path of modifications that results in every single car looking basically the same.

the toyota 86/subaru BRZ/scion FR-S is a great example of this. every single 'big' build using that car as a base ends up the same way - a rocket bunny (brand) widebody kit, lowered suspension with huge hellaflush wheel/tyre combo that both ruins the handling of the car.

everything is kinda homogenized now which sucks because it used to be a fun way to express yourself but now its like 'make it like this, this is the gold standard, anything else is rubbish'

I'll agree that modern cars do take away some of the fun and necessity of customization. I have a Chrysler 200S (yeah, I know) and it came from the factory with an Alpine stereo, 19inch rims, leather racing seats, upgraded exhaust, 300hp AWD, etc. I was looking around for fun, cheapish little aesthetic touches and there's almost nothing available these days. Or maybe I just got old and anything fun is now just a waste of money...

Like, I think there's something special or appreciable about being young, irresponsible with money, and having your first car that's a real piece of crap but you love it to death because it's yours. And you can't afford the nice model, or an engine swap, but you grew up with dreams of Lambos and Supras so those red-trimmed floor mats, fake leather seat covers, neon interior kit, "chrome" exhaust tip, and shifter knob will have to do (all bought from AutoZone, of course). And a nice stereo can be built $100 at a time if you don't mind buying secondhand.
But then some people grow up and decide that this phase isn't something they're willing to grow out of so now they own an $80,000 VW Golf that they can't actually drive. Meanwhile, the 19-year-old next door has a crappy Honda with a self-installed ill-fitted body kit and in ten minutes he's gonna floor it down Chestnut Street and see if he can catch air off that speed bump, come check this poo poo out guys it's gonna be so sweet.

I'm as annoying as the high-pitched whine of my motorcycle, desperately compensating for the lack of substance in my life.

There's nothing lame about 80s cars.

driving the fuck truck from hand land to pound town without stopping at suction station


I see a dude cruising on rte 50 (northern virginia) sometimes in an s14 Silvia (or more likely a 240 with silvia headlights) that COULD be the coolest car for miles if he'd put some loving paint on it. And some dickhead in my neighborhood drives the only Scion TC I've seen in years and it has a big can exhaust, a big cat-claw-scratch decal over one headlight (?), and is slow as gently caress. besides that I havent seen anything like a "ricer" car in forever.
