My 1997 Sebring or my 1st car which was a 1989 Thunderbird SC. I absolutely loved my Sebring though. I traded it in for my Bonne

My old '96 S10. Miss that girl 
we had some good times. But that was before I knew anything about working on cars, I wish I could have her back just so I could jack her up and shoe horn in a small block under the hood.

My '87 Fiero GT (my first one). It only had 60k on it and was immaculate except for the paint. I should have dropped a L67 in it and called it a day. :(
On the other hand, I am glad I got rid of it, or I would have never joined this awesome site, and I would have missed alot.

I used to drive a 1982 Pontiac Trans Am Pace Car edition. It was an OK car, and honestly I didn't really like it. But, it probably would have held its value.
In all honesty, (and don't laugh) I really wish we wouldn't have sold our 1997 Chevy Cavalier. We bought it in 2001 and it had 125,000 miles. Sold it in 2004 with 171,000 miles. That car was great and we loved it. Just a basic model, 2 door, automatic, red. Just something about that car that we both really liked.
And, I regret selling our 1999 SE. Car had more sentimental value than anything else. Saving it for a long time wasn't practical because we have no where to store it. One day, I'm sure we'll regret it even more.

1974 Ford LTD 2 door Brougham. Wimbledon White w/vinyl top, blue interior, power everything...even had a vaccuum actuated parking brake
400M 2bbl, and had...a borg-wagner automatic trans I think. I KNOW it wasn't a Ford corporate transmission.

At the time I missed it. I sold it due to the amount of rust taking over the body panels. It was a fun car to drive though, and only had 60,000 miles (48,000 when I bought it in 04). I miss it from time to time. I'd wish I kept it and had it as a winter car now.
It sold on eBay in 23 hours.
1994 Cutlass Supreme SL
