-You Cringe when the passenger goes to shut the door, because you KNOW they are going to slam it.
-You have to dry your car twice, because after the first time, you open the hatch and the rear quarters get soaked again.
-You dont rotate your tires, You just move the fronts to the rears and buy 2 new ones for the front.
-You create curse words for GM because of the way they engineer stuff, but you wouldnt buy anything else... EVER!

When you go into a Shopping Center you park in the farthest corner from the door, and gather shopping carts on the way in, and put them in the cart corral. You do this so you won't find them against your car when you come back out.

4) Driving on the on ramp to the highway means wide open throttle
ohyeah. yep
5) When you go under an overpass or through a tunnel you downshift into first and got full throttle because it sounds like an indycar pop it in neutral
6) When you're trying to sneak out the house and you have to push your car about 2 1/2 blocks away just to turn your car so you're not heard at home....

7) You find yourself listening to the exhaust instead of the tunes yep
8) You can spot another fbody or vette from a half mile by the daytime lights yep
9) When you take more pics of your car than anything else. lol
10) When you see someone you know... you drop it down into 1st, slowly roll by them, and tap the accelerator while lookin at them like "yea... you know you're impressed" nope

11) When you cruise thru the mall parking lots just to see how many car alarms you can set off nah
12) When you refuse to put on a front liscense plate cuz you gotta see that front bowtie nope
13) When you meet total strangers that have the same intrest and act like old friends from high school.. yep

18) When you have to drive at an angle driving on to/up steep driveways and roads yep
19) When you secretly watch people in the parking lot as you start your car up... and you get a kick out of it when they turn to see what the hell that was lol yep
20) You completely disregard fuel economy and just drive for the hell of it yep
21) When you're waiting for your check to clear just so you can add another mod yep
22) When you tell people not to lean on your car yep
23) When you dont mind people staring at your car yep
24) You drive passed an alll glass building and just look at your cars reflection yep

-You can make a conversation peice about how many times you've changed your window motor.
-Your heart skips a beat after filling up the tank.
-You see 2 slow cars racing and you join the race just to see the look on their face as you pass them from 5 cars behind. (Did that to 2 jettas yesterday)

Here's a couple more:
You only put half a tank in on Saturday night because you don't need the extra 'race weight'
You drive a 'normal' car and you think there is something wrong because it barely moves at 50% throttle
...just a couple of things that I realized today that is odd and I am guilty of...

When you can take your door panel off with your eyes closed
If the intake is the first thing you look at when you pop the hood of another f-body.
If someone says B4C or 1LE and you know EXACTLY what they are talking about

As a matter of fact yesterday I got out of the car and yelled at a teacher at her school for slamming the door.
