You know you are an SC driver when...

you are trying to decide which taillights you want to use this week, 95 or 97?

If you have ever lost a taillight/headlight to the almighty oven of death (guilty, thanks aliga)

Just read the whole thing, but didn't see this... I must have missed it:

- You know you're an SC driver when your radio does not work, as you're too lazy to order the $20 antennae assembly!

- You know you're an SC driver when you wonder if they have a "noisiest SC contest" somewhere. Awards for LCAs, clutches, seat-belts, loudest squeaks, etc. etc. etc...

- Despite the minor inconveniences listed in this thread, you become truly dissatisfied when entering someone else's car--not to mention driving in it--as it feels cheap or boring!

+100

After driving in my car, and going into my friends cars, not only does the trans feel like im going to break em, but the doors are like closing a cardboard tin sheet! The solid-ness of the SC is very satisfying.

Plus driving at 80+ in the SC feels slower than it actually is. Ive surprised many a friend when i ask them "how fast you think we going?" they respond "i dunno, 75?" i reply "Nope, 115" I hate when im in a car that feels like its going to fall apart at 100+.

You know you're a SC driver if you fear being decapitated while getting things out of your trunk.

I tried to read what I could while I'm at work as to not duplicate. funny one last night, You know your an SC driver when.. You ask someone to put something in your glove box, and for 2 min they keep trying to grab at the lower panel under the real glove box. Thinking that they might eventually get it open.

lol, so true. when i sold my last SC to this lady. she called me back after like 2 weeks, and I was worrying trying to figure out what she was gonna say (if something went wrong)
and all she had to say was, does this car have a glove box? and where is it.

lol.. i laughed my *** off for so long. after i told her she still didnt believe me

You know you're an SC driver if most of the parts you purchase were made for cars OTHER than your own. (ie: LS4 brakes, Supra NA/TT parts, ect.)
