when you lock all the other windows right after she just got a wash and wax.
when you tell everyone else to close the door with the under side of the door handle so finger prints won't be left behind.
when you tell people don't close the door with the black pillar section.


....I tried :thumbup
:
I park pretty far away from all department store/mall entrances too. I need the exercise anyway, and plus, when you come back, you get a nice long gaze at your car, right?

LMAO at locking out all the other windows after a fresh wash and wax......I don't know if everybody got this one.

As for the closing of the doors, oftentimes I'll close the door with my shirt so I don't smudge the handles OR the black pillar section.

When you cuss out people because they almost popped the door ****.
When you ask other people if that is their car just because they didnt notice it

The locking windows after washing one is all me.

Rolling by the buildings downtown slow to see the reflection.

Parking far away at the grocery store.

Get pissed when people close the doors with the black door pillars and leave fingerprints.

Get really pissed when people slam my doors or trunk. They close so easy whats with the slammin?

Touching the inside of my tinted windows with your greasy fingers! Oooh this pisses me off!

On CL at work

Of course the famous turn around to look at your car like it's gonna disappear.

Glad I'm not the only one. It seems like these are some of our main ones. The list could go on and on for us GS owners.

These couldnt be any more appropriate.

If you spend your dinner money on parts!
Order parts and then try to figure out how youre going to pay for them!

How about when u intentionally wait until someone gets in the car, just so they can see the steering wheel tilt down and telecope.....just to see the reaction on their face
as old as this car this feature still amazes people

Those with e-shift: drop gears just to see the look on the passenger's face to see that you can shift on the steering wheel, another old feature that seems to get them everytime..

How about...

... You cring every time your wife goes into the trunk because you just knows she is going to slam it.

...You inform your wife how to properly park as to not damage the very fragile TTE Lip.


Those others are great.
