How about if you've intentionally tried to set off car alarms with your exhaust. Always makes me grin, just a little.

This.

Parking garages are my weakness. If i hear that warning beep coming from a car, i cruise right behind it and rev till the alarm sounds!

when whenever you park in a parking lot, you look for the nearest shopping cart.

when you have to drive your car on bricks or wood before you can jack it up.

when people say stop revving your car and you reply I'm just trying to keep it on

when your working under 3rd gens and black specks always get in your eye

when you open anyone else's hood and forget to use the hood prop

when you have to jiggle a 3rd gen hood just right to pop it open

when you go to a car show you see the car there but never the owner

When your local cops know your car so well they don't even give you tickets anymore. They just pull you over and tell you "Go Home (Insert Name)".

(^Was killing off my old 17's while waiting on new 18'' tires and got caught)

You keep it under 2k rpms just to hear that low growl and tease yourself with the power that you know is there, you just don't want to get into it yet.

People tell you your car is nice and you say..."this thing's old as hell dude, you want it? Here take it, I'm sick of it."

When you pass a fellow F body at an intersection and you both wave, then proceed to jump on the gas!

Like looking at a hot woman, but the car doesn't give you a dirty look when you keep looking back at it.

^when you buy te car an knowing the speakers are blown only to think of it as a plus in the weight savings after removing them along with that useless cd changer.

When your car has more zipties than the total amount of times the radio has been turned on.

Seriously I think this is te only car that produces it's own music with long tubes and a nice cat back.
