...you keep on driving by buildings with glass windows just to see the car's reflection.
...you sit in your garage instead of the porch so you can be next to it.
...you need to borrow other people's cars when you go to Costco.
...you have more photos of your car than you do of your children/pets.
...you find yourself looking back at it at least twice, each time you park and walk away.

You know you own a Nissan 370z when...

...instead of accelerating after making your turns, you realize you can now accelerate into them.

...you find you're now ordering car wash and car wax by the barrel.

...you realize you're now comfortable in small, dark, enclosed spaces.

You constantly whisper to your girlfriend/significant other sitting beside you 'race car'

grandpawmoses 08-08-2014 07:47 AM

The valets fight each other to see who gets to park your car

Mustang drivers look away from you when you stop at a red light beside them

Mustang drivers girlfriends look at you when you stop at a red light beside them

When asked at the drag strip "That's a V6 in your car? I reply "Yep and it's stock" Then the V8 pony guy walks away shaking his head.

I witnessed it brake one day, and as soon as it pops especially when you're trying to open it, it will go down right away with nothing stoping it.
so, with that being said..I have a tendacy of entering the garage once it is halfway opened, enough for me to get in obviously.
I'm scared on day it will snap halfway and land on my Z :( LOL

yah, ive actually witnessed a garage spring break... definitely not a good idea to be under the door while the garage door is opening (or closing for that matter). :D

i just wait it out until the garage door is fully open.

I bet you drive 53 in a 55 mph zone in the left lane because it's the right thing to do.

When at a stop light, you slide your finger all over the steering wheel Z logo.
