I'm sure I forgot a few, but I did my best.

OOPS forgot my most regrettable one. My uncle gave me, back in 1985 a 1971 220D. The car was mint with about 85,000 miles at the time. Anyway, I was strapped for cash and let it go for about 400.00. Theat really hurts now, considering all it heeded was a dent or two fixed. At the time, I didn;t appreciate what I had.:(

Loved the Subie
 
Loved the Subie. Get a 5 speed. Don't buy the maroon color, it peels and fades. I've got a great JS Sports stainless exhaust i'll sell you cheap if you buy one! ;)
