97. When deciding how to park you park closer to the car on the left, then before settling for spot you check the passenger seat of the car on the left to see if a passenger may or may not be riding in car.

Passenger seat full of books, empty water bottles and other assorted items; yep I'm good to go. Empty and clean; no way I stay need to find another.

98. you have a dd and dont park your Z where the general public parks.

alcheng · 10-25-2013, 11:37 AM

99. you spend 15 mins to find the most ideal parking spot in the lot when you are just picking up a pack of gum.

100. When you pull into a gas station and have to move it because you realize that the fuel door is on the other side of the vehicle.

101. You have various microfiber towels that live in your Z for particular polishing /shining needs.

Or if you are as much of psycho as me - carry a small roll of padding which I drape over any part of the car that could potentially incur a scratch - ie some parking situations.

102. You asked your gf to spit out her chewing gum so you can use it to pick up specks of dust settling on your shift boot.

You and I look at this very differently. I see a car full of crap and think "if they don't have enough respect for their own car to keep the interior clean, then they'll have no respect for other peoples cars so I should move mine".

When I choose to drive a 2004 Honda 4/5 days just to truly savior getting back in the Z for the weekend.

103. You still bump your head getting in or out of your Z occasionally.

humm... did you know that most cars have an arrowhead next to the fuel icon in the cluster showing which side the fuel door is located?

Not sure what you're thinking of but I used her gum to clean the dust out of my shift boot, I didn't have a napkin on hand and those tiny particles are hard to pick up with my fat fingers!

Mostly American and American-built cars have the gas door on the driver's side -- less walking for us lazy-azz folks to get from the door to the gas filler. The right side to have it is on the passenger side -- away from the driver. When you pull up to the pump, you do not run the risk of hitting the driver's door on anything.

My son Colin says that cars either fuel on the right side or the wrong side.

OP: When you pull up to the pump, make sure you park on the left side of it.
