15 signs you are a 964 addict!!
There is a "10 signs you're addict to" almost everything on the web...so why don't we include the 964:
15 signs you are a 964 addict
1. You reach 80 km/h in town just to raise the rear wing
2. You consider ABS warning light an annoying thing
3. You consider fan belt sensor the cutest invention ever
4. When you see another 964, you check on the rear badge if it’s a 2 or a 4
5. The word “Cup” only means a kind of alloy to you
6. You asked a friend to raise rear wing and watched the mechanism with open lid
7. Seat adjustment takes you half an hour
8. You lower rear seats even if you have to load a briefcase
9. Moquette in your front boot is cleaner than in your bedroom
10. You proudly show to friends porsche badged mini-compressor
11. You believe temperature on heater **** is really temperature inside car
12. You’re planning to buy a whale-tail
13. You scare friends by suddenly pushing door lock button
14. You consider 3.0 SC too old and 993 not enough wild
15. Your car spares dealer is no longer puzzled when you ask for 12 spark plugs
New entries from more experienced 964 addicts are welcome!!

16. When approaching a stoplight...you watch closely in the rear view mirror as the people behind you point and exclaim, "WOW, look at that!" - as your electric tail lowers right in front of them.

17. You can spell "Freudenberg" without blinking an eye.
18. You're proud to state "My Car Doesn't Leak"!
19. You've got $2k stashed in your safe (that your wife doesn't know about) for the inevitable DMF replacement.
20. You've memorized the Porsche part number for the dual distributor vent kit.
21. You know you can just swap your Potenza S-03's on your C4 with Blizzaks and kick any SUV's *** in the snow.
22. You're now used to and have gotten over the rest of the Porsche crowd calling your car the "Ugly Duckling of the 911 World".
23. You've priced the 3.8 liter piston and cylinder kits at least once.
24. You publicly state you love your 964 and would never get rid of it, but secretly you'd trade her away in a second for a mint 964 3.6 Turbo S if you could afford it...

26. First purchase is a Chamoix sponge to get rid of all that condensation in the winter
27. Always travel with a fully charged mobile phone, because it's German it should be reliable, in the real world it never is.
28. You lose a nights sleep because it has developed a clunk which you imagine is going to cost £2,000 + to fix (it ends up being a loose engine undertray!!)
29. Although you would never like to admit it, you secretly hanker after a 993 or in darker, weaker moments a 996 with a GT3 body kit!!
30. You say you really like Guards Red, but you would never order a new BMW in solid red!!!
31. You start to believe that a repair bill of £500 "is quite reasonable, and less than I expected"

32. It takes you about 15 mins, 3 loo rolls, running in and out of the car and wrestling with a 4 foot long dipstick when topping up the oil.
33. Your clutch has no resistance for the first half inch of travel and you don't care.

36. You just have one more look at it before you go to sleep ... (I ment your car, you maniacs !!)
37. Your wife asks you : "If you had to make a choice ... me or your car ?"
38. At night when nobody sees you, you can sit for 10 minutes in front of your car just to admire the curves

39A. You think that--without a doubt--the 964 is the most attractive 911 ever produced. And, you're not just saying this because you own one. 
40. Every time you see another 964 on the street, it makes your heart beat a little faster.
