Oh man, where to start...

Probably the 5 that I miss the most:

-1971 BMW 2002 painted in Colorado (sherbert-y) Orange. It changed my world view on cars.

-1967 Sunbeam Alpine. Mint and painted BRG. Drove that little car all over the U.S.

-1974 Alfa GTV. Blue w/tan interior. It was everything that was lacking in the 2002 (FI, 5 spd, 4 wheel disc brakes) and a blast to drive.

-1971 BMW Bavaria. Painted Nevada beige with tan interior. Smooth, Fast, very German.

-1969 911E. It was Irish green with an off-white interior. It was a fun little beater 911 that was perfect in sooo many ways. I know where the car is at today (it's in MUCH nicer condition than when I had it!) but the owner wouldn't part with it for less than $100K

Each of these cars were 15-20 years old when I owned them.
