I hate looking at pictures of prior cars ... :(

I know the feels.

Almost got one on ebay with a malfunctioning motor a couple of months ago. What did you like about it the most?

I think it was just the overall package and the blood, sweat, and tears I put into her to keep it running. She was a 2003, the first year, with the 3.2 liter V6, rather than the later years with the more powerful 3.6. Around 100,000 miles, everything started going wrong. Electronic control module, gaskets, water pump. I replaced them all (I had no other choice, she was the only car I had at the time), and drove her for a good 50,000 miles until she was taken from me in December.

She was far from perfect, she wasn't the fastest (though the handling was pretty good), she didn't have the most luxurious features (the 2003-era navigation was a bitch), and she suffered from early 2000s GM quality. But I still loved her, and when she was clean, she still turned heads.

Maybe when it’s time for your next car, you can go a class up. These things are amazing.
