...when see dirt roads you think rally

...when you see another mod subie and speed up to see if you know them or give them deuces

...when you worship Colin Mcrae as a god

...when you hear 22B you get teary eyed, drool, get a slight hard on

... when you're girlfriend spots a Subie before you and throws up the deuce
... when partying in Santa Barbara and you're drunk as fck and you stop a whole conversaion and yell "Subie", then you see it turn onto the street.
... when people ask you if your STi spoiler makes you fly
... when you pass chain control on the way up to Tahoe and they stop you thinking you driving a 2WD car...
... when you go through a tunnell and you roll down the window and drop it into 3rd and do a pull

When you have mud flaps that wouldn't look out of place on a truck.

When you take the on-ramp, the car behind you disappears.

-When someone gets in your subi for the first time and when you punch it, they grab on to their seat
-When you turn down to music and roll down the windows to hear a subie if you are in another car where you can actually hear another one coming up
-When everyone talks about how your exhaust is as big as a coffee can

the alarm clock is so true on my street, I've got my wrx and my neighbor two houses down has his sti

When you start noticed every other Subies on the road

When you set off all the car alarms when you start up your car in a parking garage.

+1. Not sure if I've heard that either.

Not saying I need to mash it to leave cars behind either, it is just that I let the AWD do its job while most "average" drivers (who are actually below average) will be off the gas and braking mid-corner. In reality, it was no different when I had my S13, the same thing would happen One time I did almost lose it in the wet too, and I have rolled a car at speed due to *stupid* before, so I know all too well.

When you push your car out of the garage before you start it up in the morning
when your friends try to get you to take it out onto the beach and into the dunes cause "its a rally car man"
when you have to explain to people that the two spoilers were not added after you bought the car
when your friends with mustangs GT's and GTO's stop bragging about their power when your around (a friends wife called him and his brother out on this the other night when i came over, funny ish)

When for the first time in your car owning history you can do an engine swap without having some sort of degree in computers, mechanics, welding or fabricating.

When you put EG33 as a sticker on your car.
