When you can enjoy the car as much just looking at it in your garage.
When before you go to bed you make sure you go take one last look at it.
When someone asks you how fast have you driven it, all you do is smile.

When staring longingly in the mirror at your bare-chested self - replete with dyed combover, mustache, and gold chain - constitutes a "spirited" drive.*

When your left hand instinctively reaches down to the door sill to get in and out of your other car.
When you pull up to the gas pump just shy of the front passenger door, and then have to pull forward some more (or move and approach from the other side altogether) to reach the fuel filler flap on your other car.
When anything less than 90 L at the gas station just seems a little too little.
When leather steering wheels strangely don't feel furry enough.
When you forget what keyless entry, backup cameras, and parking sensors are for.
When you speak in acronyms like PTS, LWB, PDK, RY, GR, CWM, ARM, CL...
When you happily discuss ED with other guys and it's complete with lots of photos on your iPhone.
When you come up with really scientific-sounding explanations for why white is faster than red.
When you drive a really really really great car, but still can't get that [insert favourite PTS colour] RS out of your mind.

When you can get on the power in a corner a whole lot earlier than you'd normally expect.
When you go wide into the corner looking for a late apex - and then you remember that you're just driving around town!

When you've learned how to cut a harness-sized slot through CF.
When your ears no longer bleed from extreme buffeting.
When no wing is big enough. No, not even a Crawford wing.

... when you finish track sessions cursing like a sailor with amazement at how good the car is, even after having done thousands of track miles in it.
Great thread, btw!
