LOL! Mine turned into 18 months...

Just ONE project, how about thinking about WHICH project to do next...cause the list of projects for the 7 is like 3 pages long!

Taught my girlfriend to drive stick on my FD.... Now it is all she ever wants to take somewhere and she always wants to drive. Not your car, is what I reply.

... when everything is running fine and you start thinking- what the heck is gonna go wrong next!!!

... when you're always worried if you're gonna make it on the drive home and you always have the AAA card ready just in case you need a tow ...

... when your screensaver on your laptop or desktop at work is a bunch of downloaded bad *** pics of FD's from this site (thanks everyone) and everyone at work asks what kind of cars are those???...sweet!!!...

....... when your neighbor calls you and tells you to stop the car or start moving, just because you had to take 1 minute to change the cd...

.... when you end up surfin the web for new parts til 6-7 am and you have to be at work at 8. And your broke...

....... when 35-50 year old men (i'm 21) filling gas come giggeling like small girls to ask you about the car, and it looks like they get an orgasm when you let them sit in the car...

You spend every single day looking for more things that you could add to it and making sure that ur FD gets the best of the best.

that one hits me in the heart, that is so true with me and my wife, but she is getting a lot better at least acting like she cares

...if you set your alarm 10 mins early so that you can get up to warm the car and the whole time it is warming up you are worrying about the gas being sucked down.

When you just paid $400 dollars to have the dam thing shipped back to you house and you are driving your DD back instead. That way you don't put miles on it and you save gas money (cruise control is also great).

Sir, you are a fine American for being so honest.

This is why I married the girl I saw driving her black R1 when I was driving my red touring model just outside of Manassass, Virginia.

She even gave me the title to the R1 as a Christmas present, but at the time we were just dating so I couldn't take it. Been kicking myself in the *** ever since.

Both cars have been sold but we are doing fine.

-you know you own an FD when you worry more about the car than your own house when a hurricane is approaching the gulf coast.

-you know you own an FD when the day the storm is supposed to arrive you go out to wreak last minute havoc during the calm. noone is spared!...cuz it might be your last drive in it when the elements test it.

well as it turns out the storm passed by us and all was peachy keen. except i couldnt drive the FD for a month out of fear of the local authorities cmon, i was really expecting it to hit and erase my town (i won 50 bucks in a bet tho)
