When your neighbors get mad at your for reving your engine to warm it up at 3 am.
When you know every possible route home, how long it takes, and how many turns you will encounter.
When your service departments washes your car with a brush when your car is in for a recall.
When it takes 3 months to get your car back cause some idiot driving a chevy does a U turn in the middle of the highway.
When your boss and co-workers think you must be overpaid driving that exotic car.
When you are always volunteered to drive to lunch.
When you wash your car everytime there won't be rain for another 3 days.
Yeah, I'll stop.

You know you drive an RX-8 when people say, "thats a nice 60,000 dollar investment."

...100mph seems like average road speed.
...you buy the racing simulation games just to see what the RX8 looks like with different body kits, wheels and accessories.
...you get mad at people that slow down around corners.
...you change lanes or take alternate routes if there's not at least 100 yards of open road in front of you.
...getting an income tax refund automatically equates to getting new items for your car.
...you change your speedometer to kph just to see the number go above 200.
...open road means you're tempted to test the electronic speed limiter.
...your defensive driving skills change from "safe to turn" to "safe to drift".
...a little morning dew means that it's time to detail the car again, even though you just did that yesterday.
...you don't know where to rest your arm if you're ever forced to carry a drink in the car.
...you test drive the automatic just for the paddle-shifting experience, but prefer the manual transmission.
...when people change their daily greeting from "How are you?" to "How's your car?"
...a cop anywhere within sights turns on his lights and you automatically assume he's coming after you and pull over to wait.
...the purchase of your RX8 was noted to the family with the same enthusiasm as the birth of your cousin's new child.
...you want everyone else to experience driving the RX8, as long as it's not yours.
...you're torn between exiting a corner at speed versus avoiding the pothole in that lane.
