      Oh, I think I have good ones

      When you're on your high school's computers...buying parts for your E30.

      When you're sitting in class buying parts for your E30 through your cell.

        -When you paid $1400 for your car up front, but have put over $10,000 into the thing since that. (Another 6-7k to go!). And don't think a thing of it.

        -When you base what you're going to eat that week on how much money you'd have left after the work that just "Needed" to be done on your car.

        -When your girlfriend is in the car with you, you make up a fake mechanical problem that "NEEDS to be fixed", so she won't yell at you when you spend $800 at the shop getting an m3 rack

        -When your exterior is faded, dented, scratched, rusted.....but GODFORBID your passenger puts their feet up on the IMMACULATE dash

        -When you know your average fuel consumption for not just highway and city, but for every speed and ever driving condition.

        -When you drive across the country from NYC to LA because you want to be in more of a "driving city".....so you can drive more.

        -When you just can't wait to pick it up from the shop. You drive away like a giggly teenage girl.

        -When you keep a dust rag in the glovebox

        -When you are used to leaning over to the passenger side to close said glovebox after every bump on the road

        -When after spendin $1500+ at the shop, spending another measely $175 for a husco armrest is like peanuts.

        -when you are just DETERMINED to make it run for half a million miles.

        -When the thought of replacing your e30 with another e30 scares you to death, because "will I ever really find another one with a rear seat armrest and headrests?"

        -When you get a new stock exhaust, but miss the sound your rusted out hole filled old meineke muffler made.

        -When you should be working right now, but instead keep coming up with items to put on this list.

            -when your neighbors hate you
            -when you drive your E30 in your dreams
            -when you realize by taking the spare tire out, you just saved 30+ pounds
            -when you try to take the bench seat out to save few more pounds
            -when you tell your passengers to be quiet and listen to the exhaust note
            -when there are lights on, on your dash and you use electrical tape to turn them off

                you know you own an e30 when you can replace a fuel pump with your eyes closed.
                when your passengers hate you because you make them hold all your drinks.
