When your hatch falls on your head.
When you can't get any loving in your car.
When you get in the drivers seat and think, "Damn, this is mine ".
When you have to blow on your shifter **** so you don't burn skin off your hand.
When you stay in a low gear just to hear the VQ roar.
When you drop it into 3rd and smoke the car next to you.

when you take the long-ways home.

looking back at the Z as you walk away from the parking lot has become a pretty standard practice, but I do have one for your consideration - always looking for a
table by a window ( what you may call a window seat ) just to keep an eye on the
Z, I do.

When you hear the sound of the Z roaring. My friend's G37 (tagged G35) sedan noticed that my Z has a more throaty sound than his rev-up engine.

When you have to blow on your shifter **** so you don't burn skin off your hand.

I have a remedy for this, I use my sunglasses case (polyester).

It's a condom for your shift ****. Always wear protection.

When you hear that familiar, unique, signature exhaust note even from a block away, and right away you know it's either a 350Z, G35 or possibly a FX35.

I LOVE the stock note. There's nothing else quite like it. At least a dozen female friends of mine said "wow that sounds soooooooooo nice!" Ha!

When every base model WRX owner on the road MUST - regardless of age, race, creed, gender - ALWAYS try to race you, ALWAYS. Even when you're half asleep driving to work at 8 in the morning.
^ Seriously, why is this? I have a feeling it's because WRX owners are physically incapable of not abusing the complete crap out of their poor little homely sedans.

I "hear" you on this one. My father has a 2005 FX35 and it sounds almost, if not, the same as my Z. Music to my ears!!!

...when you attempt to install a simple aftermarket auxiliary jack to your crappy BOSE stereo and it turns into a $2500 job that involves ripping all the interior panels out of your car at least 3 times.

I'll add to this.

You know you own a 350Z when you are the fastest moving car on the highway.

I've never thought that when driving my Z even at 421WHP

There's always something fast.
