    R3V
    You think the bmw dealer is a dark evil place and that the salespeople are immoral tyrants who belong in hell, except the parts guy, he's kinda cool.
    Bmw owner:
    Parts guy, who's that? Oh that guy where I get the $200 BMW golf accesories.

      Working air conditioning, power locks, and suspension components/bushings that don't make any noise are all foreign to you.

        you realize that the 50 lbs of trunk tar is totally unnecessary, so you chisel it out.

            You drop your car on the orig shocks

            Put on new wheels before any other routine maintenance

            You trust the quality of model car paint enough to cover your brake lights with it

                Ah, but usually, r3v ppl are running a Magnaflow 14815 and can't hear any suspension noises anyway.

                      - 16'' 4 Lug BBS Mesh Wheels are always in the "What if" part of your mind
                      - When a indicator light turns off you feel 50000 tons of relief..like finding your wallet.
                      - Soon after, your running light indicator turns on, rear shock mount blows...but you still drive 150 miles to pick up a front lip.

                          -You think it's COMPLETELY normal to pegg out your m20 to 6-7k RPM at everyshift

                          -Nothing worries you anymore... you have just about every tool in your trunk, so whatever.
                          -People in your family/room mates/girlfreinds know the little R3V symbol from a mile away and sigh when they see you on the website for over an hour a day :-/
                          Fucking guilty as charged.

                          I love you r3v.

                          My car is faster than everyone elses, even that brand new rx-8 my friend got, handles better too.

                            You go to the dealer, buy a 20$ part. Then load up on free cookies and bottled water and still feel you paid to much.

                                -- You have no use for your glovebox anymore because you put in a badass stereo system that dwarfs the actual cost of the car, but sounds amazing from 100 yards away.
