I try not to use the term ricer, it was used as a racial slur against Asians when I was a kid, long before it was used to describe cars.
In current car culture rice=

Has nothing to do with Asian people or cars. For example, brodozers, Carolina squat, "overland builds," angryfaced Jeeps. Rice comes in all flavors and colors, many of which are distinctly American.

Someone came up with an acronym after the term was used, doesn't make it ok IMO.

Can I still call sport bikes crotch rockets? Or is that offensive too?

How about brodozers or brotrucks?

I use to be into imports back in early 2000's when the Integra Type R was considered out of this world. Ricer was a import tuner scene term and had nothing to do with ethnicity. Hell a a Chevy Cavalier could be ricer than than a Honda with a giant double decker aluminum wing and fart can. (is fart can offensive?)

Now you want to talk about cool Asian cars, I'd rock a Bosozoku car!
