I traded in a 2003 Nissan Xterra SE. I miss that thing every day. It never gave me any problems and was fun to drive. Don't get me wrong, the Mustang is better by 100 times. I just wish that I had kept the Xterra as my daily driver. I am actually looking around for a similar Xterra to buy.

I had a 1998 Chevy Monte Carlo Z34. It was kind of a boring car, but it had just enough style for me, and it's style didn't age quite as fast as other cars. Despite the Monte being pretty bare bones, it did spoil me. It had such crazy things as a SUNROOF! And AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS! And a much better dashboard layout than the Mustang. I sold it because it was getting old and I just wanted something nice and new. I have no regrets about owning it.

I just added the Stang to the collection. My Hayabusa is my daily driver 9 months of the year. The Stang is my driver when ever I can't use the Busa. The Lightning and Camaro are my babies and the Chevy p/u handles the rough Chicago winters and hauling/towing needs.

My daily driver before my 2006 was a 2000 Ford Mustang GT. I had it for 5 1/2 years putting on over 93,000 miles. I'd liked to have kept it, but there really was no need since I had the new Mustang and an 05 Explorer. I sold it to my sister & brother-in-law, so I still get to see it from time to time.

These pics are from August, just a couple days before I sold it. Despite being over 5 years old, it still looked brand new inside & out....

My last mustang was a 2003 Mustang Cobra. even though my 2005 is a much better car all around, I do miss the brute power and speed of the Cobra.

I had a '94 Mustang for 11 years and was quite fond of her, but the '05 is so much better!

My previous car is in my sig. An 2003 True Blue Metallic GT Convertible. Yes I do miss her, everytime the sun is up and is warm enought to put the top down, I miss her. However, her replacement, the satin 05 makes up for it. Wish I could have kept both. But oh well.

Sold my 1999 Z28 to my dad. I kinda miss it because of the 25-30hp advantage but for all around performance/handling and KILLER STYLE I have to go with my new GT. Besides as soon as the aftermarket parts become cheaper I will get that 30 hp back.

I traded in my 03 V-6 Mustang fo the 06. There is no comparison. The 03 was a fairly decent car, but I was never really comfortable when driving it. The 06 has way better ergonomics in regards to the seats and leg and shoulder room. The 3.8 split-port in the 03 sure made a lot of noise for a hydraulic lifter engine, but it would actually pull a bit on acceleration instead of gathering speed like the older V-6 singleports (stock for stock).

1999 Honda Civic HX Coupe. Had it since day one. Always made 42-49 mpg every two weeks. Downside was that it was horrible to drive uphill (but then again, what do you expect from a SOHC 4-cylinder engine?).

Do I miss it? Yes and no. While it was a perfect daily driver, its name and image are marred by the countless number of ricers on the streets. Besides, I don't want to be 30 and still drive a car that's more for college students. I traded in the Civic for a Mustang V6 to break away from not only the college image of the Civic, but from the stereotype of being Asian and driving an Asian car.
