What was the car that "got away"?

While the future Mrs. Reacher and I were dating, I bought this little known car from Cumberland Volkswagon called the Lancia Zagato. Mr.s Reacher LOVED it while we were dating, but I had Corvette fever and traded it in. I really enjoyed that car and wished I had kept it. Not that I would trade my current Vette for it, but I wish I had it in addition. Which vehicle did you have and wished you had kept?

I had a freind of mine that had a 68 GTO that was his second car for just bringing out on nice days and , now this was in the early 80's and it had 13,000 miles on it and he sold it at that time for 900 bucks.. The kid who bought it wraped it around a tree and that was that , I always wished i had bought that car.. It was a 400 special order with a 488 gear in it 4 speed..

Miss my '69 Mustang. Similar story, sold it to a kid that wrapped it around a tree.

Not much since then. Miss my 1996 Maxima, but I gave it to my youngest at 200K miles and he got a good bit of use out of it.
 
Here's a 1970 Boss 302 for sale. They're only asking $119,990 for it. It has only 13,054 miles on it.
