When every morning you go out to warm it up before the drive to work and you can't help but smile and say, "Hey buddy..." when you sit in it.

when you're stuck in traffic behind a Toyota Camry and you can't see anything but his rear bumper.

When you fire the thing up and start looking for the John Deer tractor making the noise in your garage.

When you have to make excuses to your car friends for how ugly the engine looks in this car. No one will ever open the hood on these things to show of anything under there!

When it feels like the rev limiter comes on at 3000 rpm but then gets over it until it hits it again at 7000 rpm. And you are only going like 25 mph

When you wonder how long it would take to get rid of the sound tube that makes the horrible moaning noise into the cockpit

When you wonder if the second gear you are about to pull will finally be the one that kills the gearbox with whatever bad stuff is going on every time it graunches into that gear.

When you need a flagman to back out of your driveway so you don't run over the munchins walking to the school next-door.

When the goldfish living in the taillight seems perfectly happy with the water level.

When your realize that this is a three gear car on any autocross course that should only need 2 gears.

When you can't wait for the OE tires to die so you can justify getting some real rubber.

When you have to hit the button for sport mode before the car is worth driving.

When you sure as hell need to make sure traction control IS engaged when it is wet.

When despite all the above crap, you still enjoy driving the car because they got the weight and handling matrix down perfect.

You know you drive and FR-S when hot chicks ask you if you use it to pick up chicks and you ask them if they know any, and they still laugh.

When you find yourself feeling nostalgic about slowing down for corners.

You know you drive and FRS / BRZ when you realize you've looked at enough parts to build ten cars.

When you're in the fast lane on a 5 lane freeway, desperately trying to make the next exit, and every last gawker in the city wants to surround you so they can get one last look at your car, forcing you to miss your exit, go 10 miles out of your way only for it to happen again!

When you grab your keys and are getting into the Legacy GT cause you have to go to Wally World and PARK, then you notice the interior light from the BRZ comes on to say "Please drive me!"

When you are stopped at traffic lights and people tend to avoid pulling up next to you just to see the car drive away.

When you see a sharp turn ahead and the posted speed limit seems irrelevant because you know the car can take the turn going 3X the limit!
