When you take your E30 as a body building driving machine. Because your tired of filling your power steering reservoir. (mine will totally empty/leak out in 4 days)

This!-when you are at a restaurant and you sit at a window closest to your E30 and stare at it making sure no one gets near it or see if someone will look at it
-you unlock your car with your alarm system from the distance to grab the attention
-you tilt your sunroof regardless if its cold to make your car look cool and unique
-you try to find another BMW and park next to it

Some realOEM specific ones:
1) When your heart sank a little when you found that E30 had moved into the Archive section of realOEM, meaning now it's Mobile Tradition, meaning shit's gonna get pricey, or rampantly go NLA.
2) When your heart still sinks every time you go to realOEM, for the same reason as 1)
3) When you have your VIN's last 7 memorized so you can drive realOEM directly.
4) When you have ran all the drop-down filters on realOEM for your car, and then saved it as a favorite.
5) You browse the catalog for the euro equivalent version of your car looking for cool stuff and extra line items. You feel jipped.
....
1) when you are THAT guy that the condo strata minutes keep referring as to the 'no mechanical work permitted' policy and the 'excessive fluid leakage' policy.
2) when you pull into a BMW dealership and think you've just stolen the scene.
3) when you are disgusted that the service advisor at the BMW dealership can't quote you pricing for a job because they don't know the part / job you are referring to. Then you proceed to try and spin their LCD screen around and find it for yourself.
4) when you've just gone through 1/2 of the usual load of your own business cards in your own wallet, just to stop a bunch of rattles that creeped up last minute.
5) you have a manual crank sunroof and you smirk with pride when you crank it open at a redlight and the family behind you is pointing and talking in total amusement. Then you missed the light turning green.Comment

...you defend it when people ask what is wrong with it
...you have to disable some part of the active check control unit to make a light stay off
...you never go to a junkyard and don't find something you need (or want)
... you have awesome taste and drive the best car ever madeComment

When you look at the Temperature gauge in traffic and notice its red, smack the dash and keep going.
When you always pronounce Sterlingsilber with the b in silber.
When there are more patches on your muffler than components of your exhaust system.
When you drive around with just your city lights on (and/or fogs) just because it looks "cool."Originally posted by priapismOriginally posted by shamesonComment
