Best car you owned and wish you never got rid of?

jcriscuolo

I owned a 1966 Corvette that had low miles and totally original. I bought it from the original owner. Sold it 18 months later for 50% more than I paid. Wish I still had that car today. Oh well.:sad:

Had a 2000 Dodge Durango, travelled everywhere and absoluley loved it. That was until my daughter literally backed over a Honda prelude and completley destroyed the engine, so I got a 2011 Dodge Durango nothing like my original..:grumble:

That would be my 1978 Firebird Formula, it had the t-tops and the wide back wheels and the kicking stereo system!!! Ohhh how I wish I never gave up that car!

My very first car: 1991 Nissan Sentra, candy apple red. She was all deluxe model with a CD player & a tape deck so I could plug in my MP3 player or listen to an actual album.

That car took no sass. I was so bummed when I had to sell her to pay for moving expenses.

My newer Sentra just doesn't cut it.

1986 dodge colt vista...........it may be a cheap looking car but it was the greatest most reliable car i have ever owned. I could drive through any amount of snow even though it was only 2wd. great ride and comfortable even for big guys like me.....and no joking i got 450 miles on 10 gals of gas.

my first truck 85 chevy s-10 4wd ext low miles and clean

I've had so many, but my favorite was a bright yellow '67' VW bug with a Happy face painted on it's front. That car went through thick and thin and had so many fun times in it. It had 289,000 miles on it when I sold it. Best car a teenager could own. Relaible, fun, went forever on a few bucks (gas was 42 cents a gal then)and if you promised to fix it as soon as possible it would always get you home.

I also owned a 70 GTO at the same time, but it ended up in the Mojave desert in a junk yard, because that is not a good car for a teenager to own. Too much power not enough brains. :-(

my first car, a '98 Plymouth Neon. it was the best car ever, stick shift to boot. never had to plug it in in winter (and i lived in Northern Alberta at the time, so that's saying something). had great gas mileage, it was like a little tank. then someone rear-ended me, pushing me into an SUV that was in front of me. if not for the SUV, it would have been fine. was a write off *sniff sniff* still miss that car.

but, my present vehicle is pretty darn fun. an '08 Dodge Dakota 4x4. so far hasn't been nearly as reliable as the neon, but trucks are sexy, so it's all good

I miss my '88 Honda CRX. Sitting in the driver's seat made you feel like you were in a rocket! I miss her... She would be of no use here in Colorado.

My very first car was a 1963 Ford Anglia. Looked a lot like the Harry Potter flying car except mine was a station wagon.
But I was GLAD to get rid of that one. :happy:

I absolutely love the Camaro I have now (see ticker), but I do wish I had been able to hold onto my '76 Trans Am.

The T/A needed a lot of work though. It had no air conditioning with a black vinyl interior. Not fun in south Florida. A chunk of the frame was rusted out, and the transmission was shot. While I owned it, I replaced the oil pump because the old one kept blowing off filters. I also had to replace the motor mounts because it would drop out of gear when I made a left turn and the engine shifted out of place.

I had a 2005 Hemi Dodge Magnum that I loved too, but I had to give it up for a van when my daughter grew into a larger wheelchair.

It isn't anything special, but I wish I still had my 97 Jetta. That thing had so much get up and go, I could beat my mom in her BMW off the line. Now I live in Korea and don't have a car... man I miss driving!!

Nice Kami kit!

I was going to sell my Celi but I love the economy of the vehicle too much...I took it back to stock and now it's my beater.

Still wish I had my 1951 Plymouth Belvedere. If those seats could only talk.

PapaverSomniferum

I drove a red convertible Chrysler Lebaron for seven years. A friend did some stuff to the engine (what, I have no idea: no mind for mechanics) and it went FAST. The back ended up covered in obnoxious bumper stickers. Hail damage from a tornado made it look like sort of like a ping pong ball.

Not a day goes by that I don't miss that car.

It's silly, but my first Subaru Legacy. It wasn't a honey of a car like a GTO, or my dream car like a 1995 Mazda RX-7, but it was a great car . . . my parent gave it to me so I didn't have any car payments, it ran like it was bought yesterday, it wasn't crazy expensive to fix. When the alternator went I replaced it and instead of keeping it got scared and turned it in for a newer model of the same car. The second car also came with a HUGE monthly payment, and never quite ran as well as the first one, I should have never let that 1996 Subaru go . . .
