Not that this car was exotic or anything but I still wish I had my old E39 BMW 540. That car was a freaking champ. I drove the **** outta that thing and it never gave me a bit of trouble in the many years I owned it. I should have never sold her. I now need a third car and I am looking at...another E39 540. Shoulda just kept mine.

Yes an original 1964.5 Mustang with a 170 inline 6 and 3 speed on the floor. I sold it for $800.00 in restored condition it's worth almost $20k I believe. Also, my dad had a 1969 Boss 302 that he let go and today it would be worth I believe almost $50k.

Two cars I should have never sold, but then hindsight is 20/20...

My 1993 Mustang Cobra - I thought I was deploying to Okinawa in the Marines, but I ended staying in California the whole time.

My 2006 Carrera S - I didn't want to drive two cars (911 and A3), so I gave the A3 to my wife and traded the Carrera S for the RS4. *where's the knucklehead smiley*

I wouldn't mind having my 87 Targa back. What a great car.

I know a guy who has every car he has ever owned for 35 years. He's got some great cars including a 87 911 coupe with 9,000 miles. But his back yard is now full of garages and he has some stored in a mini storage so it's getting a little ridiculous...

Sure, regret virtually every one that I've sold. Always just a matter of space available.
