I also feel I may be alone on this, but I greet her and say goodbye too, or see you later (usually when I park and head into work.) And always as 'baby'.

Don't feel bad. I ask my car questions sometimes. I even asked her what she thinks of my other car. She's jealous, but she'll get used to it.

Then again, I have her name on an engraved plaque in the center console insert. Anthropomorphism FTW.

And for those of you who will inevitably ask, yes I have a girlfriend, and yes, she is as confused as you all are.

There's a mirror in our garage. Half the time I don't even get out of the car for a while when I get home ...

And I get annoyed when people come out of the house to greet me because it interrupts my time with the car...unless they want to stare at her with me. I'm ok with that.

So...I've only had her since May so the honeymoon's not over yet. If anything I've become more and more obsessed =__=;;

I almost said "Damn you have 2 brz?!"

Then I realized that was the mirror you were refering to..

Lmaoooo I thought I was the only one that looks back at my baby when I get out and walk to my house

Named mines Navee (cuz of the color) her name used to be Victoria which was a name of my ex but I thought it was bad luck cuz I almost crashed twice w/ her then switched the name.

Why on lucifers name did you give it your ex's name

. Unless it was so you could still feel like you were getting inside her all the time...

SUGGESTION:

Switch cars with your wife/brother/friend for a day....Then tell me you still don't look back every time

I have lost a bit of the "lust" for mine at almost 10k. Sadly it is out of necessity. With all the of the rock chips and minor scratches in it already I would go crazy if I was still too attached to every inch of it.

Yeah I agree too. I had to drive the Bimmer for a while - and don't get me wrong, I love the Bimmer - but I was getting really antsy to get back in my BRZ. And now that I am, I can't wait for the work to be over everyday -not because I hate my job - but because I can't wait to drive her home.

Now, I don't know if it was the absence or the new strut tower bar that made my heart grow fonder...but maybe it is a little of both. ^_~
