Do you miss your first car?
I was thinking about this the last time I washed my car. My GranDamage is my first car (aside from regularly borrowing my moms '97 Saturn SL2). And despite its faults, I really like that car (hate the little Saturn!).
Do you folks still have a special place in your heart for your first car? Or are you happy to be rid of that POS?

how about a 4th vote... "nope, don't miss it because I still got it"? My 97 was my first car and I still got it (and its not going anywhere).

You should know my story by now. I sold my first car (78 camaro LT) about 3-4 years ago... then bought her back about 3-4 months ago. I wont let her go again.

I was at a dealership a few weeks ago with my car all cleaned up and looking purdy. The salesman came out and said "how about trading that old clunker in on a 2010?" I said "how about taking a hike".... shortly followed by

My first car was a beater, but had some good times in it. Yeah, I miss it.

It was only a 92 Mercury Sable that I had bought from my aunt in perfect condition back in 2001. But it was cheap and the only reason I miss her is because some D-bag wrecked her on the way to school one morning. It was reliable and had decent stuff inside. RIP
