    A small car with a V8 engine that had a black widow on the hood. What teenage boy could ask for more?

    My 2002 Honda Accord. It needed a little work, and it had some dents/dings, but what a great car! Lots of memories. Wish I hadn't traded it in last year.

    I had a red triumph herald, the seller sold it coz the 'engine died' I replaced a valve in the cylinder head and it was a most wonderful car, I sold it for ten times more than I paid for it but I still regret selling it

    I have a 1998 Pontiac Grand Am. This car as been amazing! I have hit a few deer with it with no damage but a small dent the size of my fist, and I have had to do very little work with the engine. I'm getting a new car next spring and I am happy, sad and scared! My husband tells me my car is the exception to the rule. I probably won't be this lucky again. It will have been a memorable 13+ years!

    I wish I kept my 2007 Subaru STi. I got tired of the ride quality being quite rough but I had it modified and man was it fast. I've owned some decent car since, but I wish I would have held on to it.

    Since there were a few Celica's here, he was my first car out of College that I spent a great amount modifying...

    1998 Nissan Maxima Black (Named Maverick).......upgraded to 2004 Nissan Maxima White (Named Sofi). I wish to this day I had both cars. I loved them. The Bose stereo system was to die for. Now I drive 2007 Toyota Camry.

    I'm 23 and I've only owned one car before. My 1995 Honda Civic Coupe DX. It has lasted me 7 years, but I'm looking into buying a Honda Fit Sport as my first new vehicle.

    Well... I haven't gotten rid of it... but I love my 2007 Acura RDX! It is perfectly sporty. :)
    Not as special as some of the cars other people have mentioned, but I'm very happy with mine! I used to have a 2001 Acura MDX and loved that as well; mostly because it was baby blue!

    My 2001 Accord. Not because it was some awesome car, but it got 30+ mpg. My Wrangler gets about 17 mpg. :sad:

    I had a bright blue Nissan Versa, one of the first years they came out. Such a cute four-door hatch with a lot of leg room in the back. I had to get rid of it because the payments were too high for what I was making at the time though....now I have a Hyundai Accent which is fine, no issues but nothing fancy or exciting.

    1972 Lemans, it had automatic and air conditioning. (The Pontiac LeMans was a sort of less styled GTO).

    We just sold our 70 Lemans Sport with bucket seats. So sad to see that girl go but she had very bad luck. My husband spent so much time and money and someone stole the seats out of it then a tree went through the windsheild. Hubby lost his love for it then. So so sad!
