-When one single test drive sold you so completely on the 8 that you went ahead and took the beating of a lifetime on your trade-in, even though you swore you were going to wait and sell it yourself (and you don't even care)

-when "only going 70mph" makes you fidgety and annoyed that you're going so slow.

You dream about it when you sleep.
You think about your 8 every sec of the day.

When an Evo pulls up next to you at a stop light... you pretend to be fiddling with the stereo.
You cant sleep at night thinking- turbo or nitrous turbo or nitrous turbo or.....
Your thinking of naming your future son Felix.
There is a case of 5W20 in your trunk.

When you view speeding tickets as a "freedom tax" instead of a fine
You try and use conversation about your car as leverage against the police
Backfiring exhuast has eliminating the need for a horn
You think of smooth ways to mention your car when picking up chicks
You lightly rev other cars before you shut them down
Your friends rev their cars for no reason when they shut down
You picture potential dates in your passenger seat. Many fail the test.
You've resorted to answering "Is there a V8 under the hood" with a yes
You've grown accustomed to people riding in your blind spot...forever
You hold your hand out the window on the freeway to feel for debris

i dunno..im bored lol

When you almost get into an accident looking into your mirrors to see if anyone's looking at your car

You actually can't wait to go to work because it gives you a valid excuse to go drive the car some more!

You move the car blocking your 8 just so you can use it to buy something a block away.

You put the 8 in the garage and leave your more expensive vehicle out in the rain.

Your wife knows more about the 8 then the Salesperson and is proud of it.

Your wife enjoys driving a stick, but never drives the 8.

When i think i have enough to make a list as good as is on the 7 shirt. Don't mean that sarcastically or overbearingly, I just don't think there is enough to make a quality list of 20.
