When you take two cars on vacation. One so the family can be comfortable, the other because you aren't about to miss out on all the "twisties" on the way.
When you go inside the fast food restaurant because you do not want to roll down your window & get it dirty.
When you don't want to take your car in for service because you know it will come out with more scratches.
when everyone at work says "how can you afford that car", but they actually spent more on their boring SUV.

1.when you have to give people instructions on how to close the door to not get finger prints on it
2. when coming to a stop sounds like landing a plane due to the premature feathering of the tires
3. when you still have a smile on your face everytime you get in and out of it after 20K!

...when you deliberately sit at a table in a fast food restaurant that allows you the best view of your G in the parking lot
...when you spend $250 to replace your old school 6MT console just to get a leather armrest
...when you have to spend $70 on drilled aluminum pedals that should have been standard to begin with
...when you handwash not only your rims, but actually reach through the rims to clean off those beautiful orange calipers
...when you spend hours and hours reading threads comparing CAIs only to discover that there is no consensus :-)
...when you try to explain to your wife the compelling reasons for buying said CAI (the MPG will probably increase, yeah, that's the reason)
...when you are interested in buying stock in Motordyne Engineering
...when you are scared to death at the prospect of having to replace both your Brembo pads AND rotors at the same time
and kudos to the folks that already said: replacing window motors, replacing tires at 20K, and general obsession with the appearance of the car

When it's snowing outside, and you just spend 10 minutes scrapping off the ice from your commuter car, and once you get inside it you freeze your n_ts off for the first 10 minutes of driving but you are REALLY HAPPY to know that the G will spend the rest of the snowy day inside the warm garage.
..when you mess with your friends by asking.. hey man, wanna drive my G? then they look at you as if to say,"i KNOW this is a trick.. but what if?!" then when they say, "hell yeah!" you hand them the remote to the Radio Shack remote control!
hahahahaha.. i get EVERYONE with that one.

when you have a remote controlled replica of your car in a trophy case.
When you spend days working on said replica, so it will look just like yours. Then you take pictures of the two together.

when you keep a bottle of water in the trunk, and make a pit stop at the gas station to wipe the bugs off of your front bumper.
when you need to take 5 minutes to parallel park.
when you jerk 1st and 2nd gear.
when every new G owner on this site posts a pic of their stock G that is no different than the last 100 million other stock G's, and the community welcomes them with "Nice man, Congrats!".. "Looks Good!"
when you see the shift indicator blip at a strategically set 6900 rpm, and start smiling.

another one i always find myself doing...
Staring at the reflection of your ride in the someone elses ride just to see what your G looks like rollin' or to check out your shoes...
you tell everyone that gets into your G to not touch the windows, for it leaves prints...
Just before getting into your G you stop, hover you feet, click them together to make sure all sand, gravel and dust is off you shoes before placing them on the beautiful pedals...
you have a detail kit in the trunk, so you can clean it where ever and when ever you want...
you make the girls sit in back cause they can fit back there...if you on a double...
you leave the seat forward some so you can ask your date/wife to lean back at intersections just to admire her assets... im talking about the G passing by... where's your mind at?
