This happened to me!!!
=======================
You're a first gen owner when your wife tells you that if you sell it,
you can get ANY 3rd Gen or RX-8 you want, no questions asked.
You're a first gen owner when you've owned several of them.
You're a first gen owner when you'd rather work on your car,
than work on your tan.
You're a first gen owner when you don't even smell the gas anymore,
and people have to remind you -"oh, you were driving your seven again?",
you smell.

....when you see other people smoking in their car and you think that even the smallest spark in your car would make the whole interior explode due to all the fumes.
ahhh but that smell.
ahhh but that smell.

when you have a seperate budget just for your car. when you buy a car for parts and end up wanting to build the parts car up cause it makes you feel bad for just letting it sit there. when you have to constantly explain what resides in the engine bay. when you keep more oil on hand than there is milk in the fridge. when you love the odd looks you get while transferring the car and the clerk at the dmv sees 2 cylinder on the title. i could keep going but i'm gonna stop.

you know youre 1st gen owner when....
--Normal cars get 7L/100Km
And you keep driving your 1st Gen using 24L to drive the same 100Km
-- you want one 3Gen FD, but after you try the 1st Gen SA/FB you
just canīt imagine selling it or exchange with any other car..
--you learn how to make backfires on the exact moment you want it.
--you have one Mazda MX6 GT turbo with over 220HP, but you insist that
the small 12A engine is faster and more fun to drive with less than 150HP.
-- you imagine yourself so old that the seat of your 1st gen is removed to fit the
wheelchair, and your windshield is replaced by one big magnifier visor.
-- but you are a true 1st gen owner when you want to take it to the grave with a spair engine one the back..

i can relate...my 8 yr old son walks into the garage and before i open the door he inhales deeply and says "i love the smell of the brown car" (my 85 is the ugly bastard brown...it's a true sleeper
)you know you're a true 1st gen owner if you say with pride "i got more in this car than what it's worth"

I love when Civics with a 4" exhaust pull up next to me and I downshift to blow them off the highway.My car needs a lot of work, as all 1900$ cars do, but it's running better by the day
