Default "You know you own an EG, EK when ..."

EF section had one damnit lol

- in any other car, you try to pull the door handle press the lock at the same time

- your making a right turn, and trick your friends on how much gas you burn

- you've ONCE mistakenly mashed the air bag thinking the horn would sound

- your a victim to the 'bitch pin'

- you read the word 'vitara', its not a suzuki

- you get mad at people bringing up obx parts

EJ driver here.

When highschool freshmen girls leave their numbers on your windshield at walmart. (yes, happened to me multiple times, and I'm 30).

When you've actually tried to lock the keys in the running car on purpose, and were unable to.

When you've gotten stuck with 4 people in the car trying to pull uphill in the rain.

When you stopped caring about your P0420 code 4 years ago.

When people say your OEM 99-00 spoiler is rice because it's so high.

... when you have two white EG hatches. One for weekends and one as a daily
... you have to swap a perfectly good running d15 for a B-series because you can't stand the lack of power.
... when once I put a passenger side mirror on my CX and I took it off to keep my car closer to stock.

When kids ooooh and aaaah over your 'genuine' rota slips.

When you have stock 99-00 taillights, and people give you crap about your altezzas (happened to me. Some dude SWORE to me that Honda never made a stock taillight with clear turnsignals)

When some stranger tries to trade you EVEN UP his altezzas for your stock 99-00 tails at a gas station. (also happened to me)

When you're pissed you didn't get an EG because your loaded EJ8 has drum brakes.

When you don't get a rear sway because you're afraid of tearing your subframe.

haha, I've gone through stages of that:

1. I called it an EK
2. got flamed for calling it an EK
3. flamed someone else for calling it an EK
4. no longer care, ignore and answer question.

-When driving you get racially profiled by a pig for owning such model.

-When every part of the car seems to need repairing.

-When as you get older , you still feel freakin cool when driving your car.

-When u start to hear a rattling sound and find out you need to tear apart a tranny to replace a $20 part(ISB).

-When it takes you 10+ minutes to park your car because you're activating all your killswitches,wheel locks....etc.

You know you own an EG...
-when your friend goes to get in the car and the exterior door handle doesn't work anymore... again
-when your suspension is so worn that a random bushing needs replacement what seems like once a month
