I regret owning:

1990 Ford F250 4x2 (a 3/4 pick up w/o 4x4 sucks)
1997 Dodge Ram SS/T 4X2 (looked fast but had no cojones)
1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder GS (no turbo, no power)
2007 Honda Civic Si Coupe (I wasn't ever crazy about the design)
2009 Honda Civic Si Sedan ( " )


Cars I was overall happy with:

1989 Ford Mustang GT 5.0 5spd
1988 Ford Bronco 4x4
1992 Toyota SR5 4x4 pick-up
1989 Madza B2200 4x2 mini truck
1993 Mazda B2600 4X4 mini truck
1995 Nissan 240 SX SE (except for the auto trans)
2000 Honda S2000 roadster
2001 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4
1998 Honda Civic EX (winter beater and gas saver)
2004 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 Hemi
2005 Honda Civic LX SE 5spd (winter beater and gas saver)
2002 Subaru Impreza 2.5 RS winter beater and gas saver (would be funner if it was a WRX)

The best car I have ever owned:

2010 Chevrolet Camaro 1SS/RS 6M IBM (my year round permagrin)

.....and I love popcorns

Regret trading my 56 Chevy Belair Post with a stick shift
V8 w/overdrive for a 61 Chevy Bubble top. Other regret not buying back my 69 Camaro from my ex. One other regret was not buying a 59 Corvette for 10k, from a guy going thru a divorce.

The only vehicle I regret owning was a Mitsubishi 3000GT. I HATED that car. I bought it used as an impulse buy. Only kept it for a year and traded it in.

I regret having sold a few. Only 1 I regret buying. A 1973 Vega. Very possibly the worst car I've ever owned.

Regret ever buying: Nissan Pathfinder... only kept it for 22 months on a 39 mo lease (ouch, but worth it to get out).

Regret ever selling: BMW 335i... was technically the wife's, but I should have taken it then sell it when she wanted something bigger.

Cars I've owned. (and 1 motorcylce)

82 Mecury Lynx
86 Chevy Celebrity
98 Chevy Malibu
00 Hyundai Tiburon
01 Hyundai XG300L
02 Pontiac Sunfire GT
04 Nissan Sentra SER Spec V
04 Yamaha YZF R6
04 Nissan Frontier XE 4x4
05 Hyundai XG350L
00 Toyota MR2 Spyder
02 Pontiac Trans AM WS6
04 Nissan Titan LE 4x4
09 Pontiac G8 GT
10 Ford Edge SEL
09 Hummer H3T
08 Ford Mustang GT
10 Ford Flex Limited (current family car)
12 Ford Mustang GT (my current car)

Regrets?
Trading in my G8 GT for the Hummer H3T (dumb) I dumped the Hummer H3T in 62 days after owning it. It was a total impulse thing. I honestly would have liked the H3T more if it had the more powerful V8 (Alpha) engine. But as many miles as I drive, and as much as I enjoy power and being able to pass on the highway without having to strategically plan it, like it is a big even or something.. that pretty much sealed the deal for me.. I quickly realized my mistake and got rid of it.

Lets see only two cars i regret owning
96 tbird with the V8 had bad tranny problems and the odo wouldnt always record the miles.
03 ford ranger edge only cause it wasnt 4x4 and thats what i should have bought instead.
cars i dont regret owning.
90 crx hf 5speed 50 mpg and a ten gallon gas tank better than a prius.
88 tbird turbo coupe 5speed i learned to drive stick on this car and it had a ton of touq for a 4banger of that age.I never should have sold it i still miss it to this day and ill own another.
05 altima 3.5 se quick for its time and great gas mileage and good road manners.
07 silverado reg cab Lt 4x4 had to sell cause gas prices with thru the roof.
09 Cobalt SS turbo car was way to easy to get into trouble with seemed like a cop magnet as well.
10 camaro SS best of the bunch so far.
Hopefully a 6th Gen Z28 will be on the next list.

Regret 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 Cummins 4x4.
7 X 48RE Transmissions
3 X 5.9L Cummins engines
77,000 miles on the chassis.
Anyone want to buy it? It's all fixed. Again.

Spent more in repairs than two times the purchase price.
