Buffy's mouth reminds you of a donut. You smile as you jam on the 8

I love the carwash where the catholic school girls are trying to earn a buck. They love to make sure every inch of my 8 is polished.

-when you are wakling into work and you know the door to go in is mirrored so you glance in the mirror door while you open it to see the 8 in the sunshine...( so know one knows what you are doing)

- when you open the rear passenger doors for no reason at all (so others can go "wow")
- when you're driving, but not just for the A to B sakes
- when the words "green" and "quick start" have a whole new meaning
- when your wife can't stop you when you say "i'm going out with Roxy" (my car is named Roxy)

Open up your moonroof as your driving....so people look.

Press the windshield washer fluid for your head lights to get cleaned or ...so people look.

When getting out of your car,you have a coll face on when starring at people.

When you are drifting off to sleep and just before you doze off you think of driving the 8 and get a shot of adrenaline that snaps you back awake.

- when long beeps make your hand twitch and left foot press down.
- when Big Earl, Autozone employee of the month, asks "would you be needing any 5w20 with that?" every time you come in.
- when asked the question how many pistons your car has, an involuntary smile comes on your face.
- when you are complaining about lack of power and after two quick corners forget what you were talking about.

If any of these are repeats sorry. I didn't read the thread.

-When your wife calls her the other ball and chain and her blood sucking sister (rx7)
-When you and your wife open up a college fund for your new daughter as well as a just in case fund for the rx's.
-You feel bad every time you see a door ding and you talk to the car saying that you promise to fix her when you have some cash.

1. When stopped at the lights you admire yourself and your car in a shop windows reflection.
2. You get a Christmas card from OPEC.
3. People in Toyota Celica's avoid direct eye contact with you.
4. When petrol station attendants keep telling you "You know ... you REALLY should get one of our Loyalty Cards....."
5. When you look out the window in the morning to check the weather and think "No way am I taking mine out in that ****, I'll just use the wifes car today and she can walk".
6. When you see a tunnel coming up you lower both the front windows and switch the CD player off.
7. Your next door neighbour buys a new car but you dont notice.
8. Suddenly the car park at your work is full of RX 8's about a month after you bought your one.
9. You actually read the car manual for the first time ever after buying a car.
10. When the word cylinder is mentioned in a conversation and you dont know what they are talking about.

-When on a trip, the wife counts the 8's on the road instead of the VW beetles as in the 80's...

-When your wife starts checking if the other 8's owners got the chrome rotary crest...

Thanks for playing along, im just poking fun at the fact that the 2nd gen looks alot like a 924/944 and that many Rx-8 owners don't recognize their heritage unless owning a 7 perviously.

PoLaK is right, some don't know. Then again, some do. These pix are with me, my "Pepper", my son Max (MRX_Rotary), and his car, which, last I checked, was a '91 FC. (Which he got painted - same color - since these pix were taken, btw...)

When you find yourself staring at your 8 through the window on a rainy day wondering if she feels as depressed about it as you do!
