My old '02 V6 Accord coupe (Black/Charcoal). If only they made it with a manual 
. I probably would have SC'd it and done some pretty tasteful I.C.E. Wanted a stick shift and convertible bad enough at the time that I got the S. Wish I could have had both.

funny as it sounds, I would like to drive my old 1988 VW Fox. Don't think I'd like to own it but it would be interesting to drive again, it was only 81hp (?) with 4MT and non-power steering.
I drive it around for 6 years then gave it to my brother who drove it another 2-3 years. He let it go to crap. I drove it from time to time when he had it, it was old fashoned compared to the cars I got after such as the Maxima and Accord but it was a fun little car.
Just the other day I saw an old Fox a 2-door station wagon (I wish I had bought one of those b/c it's rare to see. My car was a 4-door sedan.
Edit, its funny the Fox 1.8L engine and the S2000 is 2.0L and the S2000 is close to 3x the HP.
I'm going to miss the S2000 if I ever sell it, it will be the car I'd say wish I didn't sell so probably I shouldn't sell it.

I really do miss my 240 and my civic, but man I'd love to have my Talon back. Barely owned it for a month, had to sell it to raise funds for college. Man, less than 60K on it, black on black, turbo w/awd... man I really regret selling that car, but priorities are priorities <sigh>. Ahhh damn this thread!

I enjoyed all of them while I had them but sold them for a good reason, usually I got bored,needed the money or wanted the next best thing. I love my current 06' S2k and am enjoying my 335i just as much.I miss my C6 but will enjoy the new power of my 09' C6 even more which will probably be my next ride . There's always another car, the secret is learn to enjoy what you have till you can get your next great fantasy ride.

For me it was my 88 turbo. I had it for 10 years and 145,000 miles before it ended up looking just like yours.
Besides being fun to drive it was also the most comfortable car I've ever owned. I drive it from LA to Alaska and back in the summer of 88. I could drive that thing for 15 hours/day, and still feel great when I got out of the car.

Every car I've ever had has been totalled by some other driver hitting me - even the Audi I traded in on the S2000 was totalled by a T-bone crash. I don't like to think of the day the S2000 goes away - I like to think I'll have it forever.

1995 LR Disco. Was like sitting on a leather couch in a sunny living room... a living room that could drive over and CRUSH little weeny cars.
Ahhh, fond memories. I think it was the remote start and climbing into a toasty car in the dead of winter that still makes me want another.
