4.When you spend all night searching for stuff for your car.

when you actually will admit to people your car isn't fast in a straight line
you can drive comfortably for another 30 miles after the fuel light comes on
your right arm is twice the size of your left from the workout of shifting the gearbox

16. If you've been in an ACCidENT in it and then bought another 8D
17. If you associate the color "coastal blue" with almost certain doom.

that's all for now...
