The car you miss the most.

But I wish I could have kept the BMW as well. It was better quality overall, was much more comfortable, had better ergonomics, visibility, and storage, got better fuel economy, and was significantly smaller and lighter. All those things made it much easier and more practical to drive around town.

Very nice cars - I used to be a Licensed Dinan Tuner. Did a bunch of these.

Just sold my Dinan 3 E90 - definitely going to miss it, even though the N54s are ticking time bombs. 6M made for a really fun daily.

I would love a '64, '62, or '63 (in that order) Impala SS 'vert.

Whatever the adjective I have no regrets.

Guessing the Cutlass is the blue one? That white stripe makes it look like a W-30 442.

My first new car was a 1990 Geo Storm GSi 5-speed. That car was just a ridiculous amount of fun to drive and I racked up over 110k on the clock before I sold it. No pics handy of it, although I know I have some -somewhere- that I could scan if I could just find them.

I've owned a lot of vehicles over the last 30 years, but one that stands out as one I miss is my 2006 Acura TL Tech. Anthracite Metallic w/ black interior. It's probably good that I got the automatic and not the manual as I would be kicking myself a lot harder for selling it.

My ‘68 dual quad 428 with a turbo 400 trans and posi 4:10s. Was my first car and my brother and I built her up...

Crazy - I had a '92 Storm GSi 5-speed as my daily beater for 3 years. Handling by Lotus!! Lane changing when passengers least expected it was the most fun

LMAO!

I remember reading that it pulled something like a .97 on the skid pad. At the time, that was in the range of what Porsche cars were being lauded for.

That car would quite literally turn on a dime. I was driving along one day when I saw a buddy I worked with on the sidewalk. I basically yanked the wheel and took the 90 degree turn onto the side street at 30MPH. Apparently, the right rear tire was in the air pretty much the whole time and not a single squeal from the tires (I always ran better Yokohama's on it).

Drove mine for 5 years through all kinds of weather, INCLUDING plenty of snow.

I'm in Western Canada - so yeah, plenty of snow and Yok's too, what an odd coincidence...but those wheels were a bit of an oddball size if I remember right.

80mph through snow was no problem, let off when the front tires would spin, but the best part was the rear was so light it would never attempt to pass the front, just point and shoot.

185/60/14 on mine. Definitely odd sized. Subsequent years went to a wider patch and bigger wheels, so they were actually a tad worse in the snow than mine.

I ran Avid A+4's.

Had one as a Company Car ( Auto as well)

My 1988 Pontiac Trans Am GTA L98 in Fire Red (really like burgundy)

I loved that car and sold it to buy a Green 94TA GT that was more or less a Lemon

[chiefmg]

My 2006 Mazdaspeed6 in Black Cherry Mica. Had some bolt-ons that made it quicker and even more fun. Used to have those butch looking Camrys try to keep up around corners, always a kick watching them understeer through one I had just taken about 20 mph faster than they did (usually with a look of terror on the driver's face). Only reason for selling it was one of the dogs knocked my wife down the stairs and sprained her left foot, at the time we only had manual cars so she couldn't drive for two weeks. There was no way we were getting rid of my Miata and her RX-8, so the Speed6 took the hit.

Easy. My 2002 Sunset Orange Metallic WS6 Trans Am. It was a 6 speed with camel interior. Rare! Never should have sold it.

I LOVED the WS6! Always wanted one. I was raising my kids at that time so, it wasn't feasible. I test drove a red one with the graphite interior. I almost pulled the trigger but with 2 small boys, the extended cab truck won out. SWEET ride you had there!
