Favorite Car You've Owned? (1 Viewer)

My favorite car was probably my 2010 Kia Forte Koup. The first and probably last new car I ever purchased.

Ok…given that I can’t compete with that, I’ll wait to post my update until I actually receive it. But here’s the bullet: was on a waitlist for over a year, and now have a factory order in progress to my spec. Delivery ETA is…June 2023. Over two years from waitlist to delivery.

My favorite car I've ever owned I sold over lockdown for over 3 times what I bought it for after putting 100,000mi on it. Still regret selling it to this day...

Man, those e28 M5s are up there with e30 M3s for me. I miss my E36, helluva fun balanced car to huck in the twisties
 
2006 BMW 525i. Great handling, great cabin acoustics and a throaty standard exhaust when you applied the throttle liberally. Shoddy work by a local dealership led to a cascade of events that had me buy another car and sell this one. At least it went to a friend, and he is enjoying it.

I am casually looking for a Mercedes SL500 (or SL55 AMG) of the approximately the same vintage. One of the most beautiful cars ever built, imho.

I have had more then a few nice euro cars…but current is the perfect combination of that came and went before (power, comfort, cost)
And the kids love it too

Canceled!!!! We got catfished. Tons of undisclosed stuff…. Walked away.

Spent the last 3 days combing over every single C6Z in the south that I could get hands on and VERIFY… Birmingham, Atlanta, etc…. After 8hrs of driving…….. It happened.

I found her. She’s home. My wife is happy that I’m happy.

The C6Z was always the one that got away…. But I have unfuckedup that fuck up. Never letting her go again!!!!!!

This was my retirement gift to myself. We love it and take it on all our road trips. It now has 120K miles on the clock. Have since changed the wheels to machined faced black.

This was my ultimate fuck up in my car life man…. I built a C6Z, H/C/FBO 600whp caged monster….. AND SOLD IT!

Always regretted it, but now, the world back to normal.

I feel your pain. I purchased a new 77 T/A 4 speed Hurst, kept it for 17 years, and sold it when it was just sitting in the garage not being used. As it was leaving with the new owner, I knew I had F'd up.

funny story about that spoiler - i was leaving work in a freak snowstorm one time, and got stuck trying to leave the parking lot. the guy behind me immediately jumped out to help and pushed with all his might right on the plastic spoiler and broke it clean off. quickly found me a $100 replacement at a junkyard, cuz i couldn't give up those sweet, sweet aerodynamics.

he was a great guy, but that fucker never even offered to reimburse me. not that i would have accepted, but it's the principle, ya know?
