I had a 3rd Gen Camaro that I wish I would have held onto. It was an '87 that I bought used in 92. I mowed a many yards and worked hundreds of hours for local farmers doing manual labor for $5/hr to pay for this car. I still miss the T-Tops. Wasn't a super fast or great performing car, nearly everything rattled..I could barely out run the Mustang 302's and the Bonneville 3800's (lol)...good times. My senior year I started dating a girl that lived like 7 miles out of town on gravel roads in Minnesota. I remember getting stuck several times in her driveway and her Dad would come pull me out (after making me feel like a loser)..so I took my car and traded it in on a 1988 Silverado regular cab 4x4 long box. Geez the dumb things I have done for girls..I tried finding the car several years after selling it but was not able.

1965 Corvette StingRay Roadster, purchased in 1973 for $2,100. Back then they were just an old used car.
Looked just like this one. All my old pics are gone just like the car:(

Kind of a toss-up between my 1996 VW GTI VR6, 1998 Acura Integra Type R, and 2007 WRX STI. Most likely the GTI VR6, if I'd have kept that I'd still be beating on it (after it's like 10th rebuild).
I don't miss any of the shit-pile unreliable BMWs, M or not. |

I've always been a fan of MK2 & MK5 GTI models.

My dad had a 67' Camaro RS from back in the day and let it go fifteen years ago. We didn't appreciate it at the time but if I could go back I would have made him keep it or at least buy it off him. Been thinking about getting one again now that I'm older and can put some time and money into it https://www.autolist.com/chevrolet-c...ter=year%3Aasc been eyeing some of these around the Illinois area, they look to be going for around 50k.

Those are beautiful cars & lots of regrets. When will you learn your lesson?

I "wish" I didn't sell most of them.. LOL. But they were usually sold to buy the next car/project. If I had the money I'd of kept them them all. Some I do miss are my first car, a 1974 Camaro Type LT 4spd. Also, a V8 Monza, a 1979 Z/28 4 spd, a 55 Chevy Bel Air and the one I miss more than the others is a Pro Street 57 Chevy with a blown big block I built 90% of in my garage. But I sold that to build my current 1969 Pro Street Camaro Convertible, so I can live with it. All of them were modified while I owned them. Some mild, some wild and some in between.
Here's the 57.. .
