I would love to find that car again and buy it back but more than likely its probably scrap metal by now.

I've found anytime you sell something you care about because you believe you can use the money, you always regret it. That being said:

 

Datsun 510 (mechanically restored to near mint)

Triumph TR7 (restored to near mint)

MKI Supra (mint)

66 Mustang (Looked great, needed some mechanical)

 

These were all owned before the internet was as "big" as it is, now and before I ever really got into it. Shit, if I had the wealth of info then that I do now, maybe things would be different.

+1. I "miss" something about all of my old cars long gone, and I realized a while ago two things:

 

1) The thing I miss most about my old cars was that they were simpler. '88.5 Suzuki Samurai, '89 Civic HB...that's why I love my Cleetuses (Cleetii?): 3 80's Chevy fullsize C/K trucks that are stoneage simple in their engineering, do work, and can be repaired for pennies using a sledgehammer and a crescent wrench.

 

2) I find myself looking forward to my next purchase a MUCH more enjoyable pursuit! Looking at a Mazda5 and a CTS-V for future purchases eventually...

I hate you.. this is the only dd i'd replace the contour with right now

 

+1 that color is the sex

 

i would kick myself for selling that car too and it just reminds me to never give in to the urge to sell mine.

I will be buying another one.........Hopefully in 2011.

 

It will be a manual trans car and mint. I have slowly started to LOVE the Gen 1 style. I used to ONLY like the Gen 2. I think my purchase will be a Gen 1.

 

God, this thread has made me depressed at my stupidity. That car was fucking MINT.....:mad::mad::mad::mad:

no real huge regrets yet. i've only sold two cars so far::

 

--1990 7-up mustang lx 5.0 vert. was in shitty condition, bought it for $3,500. sold it 5 years later after only putting less than 5k miles on it for $2200, after sinking about a grand into it. it had rust, was an auto, with 2.73 gears

 

--'99 sentra sold last year for $2,500 with 115k miles on it. mechanically perfect car with everything working on it--wife made me sell it, no huge regret.

 

--'90 grand prix. my grandfather helped me buy it after college (in 1999) as a daily driver for $3,000 with 75k miles on it. after maintaining it beautifully, and fixing a head gasket at 150k miles, my wife demanded i get rid of it (let me get the gto just to get rid of the grand prix). i gave it to my grandfather, and he absolutely loves it. he's driven it for the last 3 years and it has worked flawlessly for him

 

our '05 explorer kind of sucks, i'd love to trade it in on something better, but its paid off.

I miss all my old cars (especially my GTP) but for various reasons I don't really regret selling any of them. The only thing I regret is spending money I don't have on "impractical" cars, and not being able to afford a decent DD, and driving my worn out third gen this winter as a result. Oh, and selling my lifted 4x4 K5 Blazer BEFORE winter, not after. What a stupid move
