You know you are driving a MSP when you pull up to autozone as they are outside locking the doors for the night and you ask them if they are closed, and they say not for you, come on in.

Don't know if it is because they like my car or if it because they are familiar with my car and know i need help

you know you drive an MSP when your car is the only car at a car meet proudly boosting 6-8 psi while everyone else is in the double digits...

when your LSD snaps during a turn at an autocross event and THE CAR IS SETUP FOR HANDLING...

when your CD player freaks out on you when you press "eject" and it opens and closes every time, then the screen goes blank and you can't do anything. After that, a blue line pops up on the screen, then everything is fine. ( this happened to me for the first time today) Oh yeah, after it finally opens, the CD doesn't come out for first few times..lol...

when every stock upgrade on the MSP fails: LSD, CD player, suspension(clunk), subwoofer, exhaust mani(cracked), intercooler(heatsoaks), coolant system for MSP only(water return elbow), vacuum lines(should have been silicone to begin with), exhuast( cracks, and should have been bigger anyway and should have been from turbo back), motor mounts. Did I miss anything..lol

I think someone may have already posted something to this effect, but you know you're driving a MSP when your car has already begun making every strange noise known to man, but each time it starts making a new one, you're afraid to get into boost or take a corner hard for a week. Until you learn to tune it out like the rest...

You know you are driving an MSP when it gets called a Suby and a Mitsu within an hour. See the video comments.

Hailstorm

The house I was living at didn't have a garage. I had just gotten the MSP fixed about 6 weeks before the storm. It was back to new condition, no dents, all new paint and then the hail....

When you find a way to wedge your foot on the gas pedal on long drives!

[MSPzac]

yet you laugh in there face when you have the right mods and can beat them even though you are only boosting 8 psi b/c these damn cars respond so well to the small upgrades!

When cruise-control comes via your right foot instead of a knob or button...

 

[03.5BlueMSP]

when you slow down going over bumps when your girl is with you so she wont hear the "clunk".

 

[mgerst1]

^too true, also your girl stops asking what "that noise" is because you have run down the list of possible causes of the noise so many times she either remembers or is tired of hearing it lol
