-When you want to show it off to Everyone... but wont let any one of them test drive your evo.
-When you park in west bumble**** just so no one parks next to you.
-When the sound of twigs, small debris, and stones (esp after it rains) hits your paint, and you cant help but grimace.
-When you can feel EVERY bump, ditch, crack, or unevenness on the road.
-When after hitting a pothole, you say every curse word you can think of.
-When you buy a Recaro baby seat.
-When you explain to wifey about all the airbags and safety the evoX has... ya because that's why we bought the evo... for safety LOL

Hahaha. This always goes thru my head.. I've had a couple waitresses ask me what kind of car I drive and I just say "You won't know what it is.. its called an Evo." Then they say is it like a sports car?

When your brother who drives a 335i with 10k+ in mods goes for a ride in your stock MR and gets out and says wow, but at least I have two turbos...

... when instead of going home from work after a crazy long day you spend 10min reading through this thread.

... when you have at least 2 evo hot-wheels sitting on your desk.

... you wear sunglasses with dark lenses so you can stare out the corner of your eye to see if anyone is checking you out but so they don't know you are looking to see if they are looking.

... you contemplate how well a shoe will allow you to heal-toe before buying it.

... your number one priority when finding an appartment to live in is that it has garage parking.

... you catch the announcer at your auto-x event knocking the evo for being unfairly fast at the end of your run

... when you spend more on the roof rack then your bike because it's a car accesory


... when you do your own snow plowing


And Lastly
... when you sit in your car even in sub-zero temperatures, freezing your *** off and refusing to drive, because you have to let the car warm up first! OR letting it warm up even though you are going to already be late because you see the warm up period as an unavoidable part of the commute.

When a mustang owner tells you he has 500whp with the biggest smile on his face, to only watch his face turn red in your rear view.


When a sti drivers girlfriend smiles when they loose in a race.

few more:

... when you're terrified a girl you're interested in will know and be interested in your car. You just aren't ready to get married yet.

... you avoid at all costs volunteering to drive when an obese superior could be coming along.

... you honestly believe that you've found a creative/artsy side that you didn't know about and that you have a true passion for photography justifying that DSLR purchase you crave.

...when you are suddenly tailgating because you accelerated through the turn that other drivers slowed down through...

...when you never know the price of regular fuel when others ask...

...when you constantly watch your rear view mirror while braking because you know others can't stop as quickly....
