Is that what we're going for now 20? I thought it was top 10? Doesn't matter to me I'm still interested in getting the shirt.

You can't figure out why your Harley won't shift into 6th....

You get worried when your winter car doesn't burn oil.

everyone wants to know what model Ferrari it is.

everyone asks how big a v-8 it has

You have your "8" since July 4 and the wife hasn't driven it once!

The gas attendent knows your name.....:)

You never stop being mezmerized by the highway lord of the raindrops dance. :D

You get a DVD in the mail on how to use your car and avoid it's inherent problems

You get pulled over ... it's not for speeding but to check out your car.

- when you've spent more on cleaning products for your 8 than you have all of your past vehicles combined

- when you buy a 2nd vehicle to drive to and from work to keep the miles off of your 8, but you end up driving the 8 to work anyway

- when you leave the movie theater and go to your car and can't figure out why your keyfob or key won't work in your Nordic Green 8 because you KNOW it's the only one in town only to find out that yours is 5 spaces away and is no longer the only Nordic Green in town

You are reading this right now.

You tell everyone that Harley's have a bigger engine.

You're driving a rental car (for any reason) and you find yourself thinking like you do when you're in your 8:

"I need to get in the other lane and turn soon but that other car is in the way... it doesn't matter, I can take 'em!"

and you proceed to drive like you're in your 8, speed up, pass by a margin and smile!

when you drive a normal piston engine and it just feels rough and crude.... :)

When you wife knows more about cars than your mazda dealer.

lol! thats actually not saying much. :P

... When you're with friends and you have to all go somewhere, everyone fights over who gets shotgun.
... when people who you don't even know, know what car you have. They find out through other people talking about your car.
... When every weekend you spend atleast 3 hours washing and waxing

- when you buy a 2nd vehicle to drive to and from work to keep the miles off of your 8, but you end up driving the 8 to work anyway


LMAO........I did that

i donno if this has been said b/c i'm too lazy to read...but..

when the officer pulling you over asks, "why were you speeding" and you reply, "sorry, it's a defect in my engine..i start it up and it just want to go to 80!"

LMAO, this is so true. I'm driving a rental right now but people I don't know come up to me and say, "Don't you drive that small hot red car?" I smile big and say, "Yep! That's mine!" :D

When you enjoy that conversation:

"How may cylinders does it have?"-- "None." -- "But how does it move than????"

haha, i've got that one before!!!! those are great..people just don't get it...that and i usulaly get, "thats a v6 right? Turbo w/good torque" "uhh..yea.."

i also love when you wait until redline to shift and people go "is that thing turbo?!" "no.." "it sounds like a plane is taking off and a turbo is on it!" "um, ok"

..... you know you're an 8 owner when your driving down a busy street and you can see everyone's heads collectively turn as your cruise by.

:D

^ like that one:

Edit Reworded to:

Your car gives Rubbernecking new meaning. OR
You’re concerned about causing car accidents due to indecent exposure.

You end up drawing a diagram when friends ask "What's under the hood?"
