...when you electric bill for your PS could pay for the game new every month. (and you live in a country with very low rates)
 
You know you’ve played GT5 too much when wildlife starts to show up on the tracks. I was racing the Trail Mountain course when I saw a rabbit in the middle of the road. I swerved to avoid it and spun out of control. Just as I was about to hit a guardrail that would have sent me to my death IRL, I realized I was playing GT5 and crapped my pants. I’m now a transsexual dwarf.

I think the rabbit might have been a white median stripe, but I’m not sure. Watch out for rabbits!
 
...when you go to look in the rear view mirror IRL and your thumb goes towards the down button on your DFGT.

Guilty as charged.
 
You know you have played GT5 to much, when you see the name R.Lowe and think right away that Rob Lowe is also a fan of Gran Turismo and when you see the name J.Bieber and think that he is planning to make songs about how much he loves GT.
 
...when you're waiting for a bus and just as it slows to a halt you hear the race start/begin beeps in your head just before you (and everyone else) jostles to be at the front of the rush for a good seat.
(In this country nobody seems to understand or know about the wild concept of a que line, hence the mad dash)
 
...When you use the the phrase 'understeer' to describe anybody who is a little slow to get the point.
 
when you drive down this rather new curvy road at night and you notice some fireworks but just ignore them rather then watching them (true story, I didn't pay attention to them but after 5 seconds I thought wait.. this is special in real life :P )
 
My left pinky finger cramps up from holding the wheel while my right hand shifts. I have a habit of driving with one hand when there is alot of turns and shifts. (The Ring and Cote d Azur, etc)
 
When you can think of nothing else the whole day other than how to break into the 1:20s as you're attending the GT5 middle east challenge ;)
 
When I think about the HSR expert challenge grind every day, every evening after work to earn CR just to buy my favorite cars...
 
When you do 6 hours of Drifting in GT5 , then you go out drifting your real car and rip the lower control arm off lol. Then you think "but my GTO is a standard car" lol
 
When you wake up in the middle of the night and wonder; Should I go Check the Used Car Lot for the Formula Gran Turismo !!!
