Can't forget bmw fanboys.
I'd rather have a drift car ("go" modded hachi roku, sil-eighty, rex or a supra) then a civic. Even a Celica gt4 if I lived in snow country. I don't really care or call people ricers if they have the big wings and body kits and what not, it's only if it's half assed. Bumper doesn't match body color, muffler sounds like shit, zip ties are visible etc.
If you're gonna put a body kit and rims and wings on your car, don't claim you're a racer, if you do it for car shows and strictly for car shows, that's fine.
If you put a shopping cart handle on, and then do flybys or rev at other people, that's what makes you a ricer. I know a few people with widebody MR-2's (SW20) and eclipses that have put thousands of dollars into show features for their car. They drive like they're in a luxury car, they don't rev at anyone, but they go to shows and their cars just LOOK AMAZING. Even a few awards have been taken home. These guys are all show and no go. They don't claim it's fast, they wanted a show car and they keep it that way. That is not a ricer in my opinion.
