If you found me on the street, one would think fairly normal type IÂ'ma, and most of the aspects that would be true. However, I am a person ill, suffer from an incurable disease: I am a car maniac.

You may be a car fanatic if:

2. You own 3-4 cars at once, and 2 of them run Dona't.

3. You attend events cars of all types: exhibitions cars, racing, truck shows, etc. You can even attend events for vehicles Dona't even like, just because it is related cars.

4. You have the most extensive collection of toy cars ever to be seen. IÂ'm talking Matchbox cars, cars, casting the cars, etc.

This is just a small list of ways to determine if you are an addict. I've grown a car nut, which are raised by a part to my father. It's like a bug bite and once there is no remedy to get rid of him. You can try to pick up other hobbies and jobs, but in the end always be the car. So the best thing to do is give up, admit you have a problem, then say the hell with it and go enjoy that car!
