I just sold the one car that I remember always being there. Out of the 5 (now 4) cars I have at my house, this is the only one for which I don't remember the day we bought it. I remember being two years old sitting in a car seat in the middle of the back seat, I'd always make my parents play my favorite peter pan cassette. I remember when it was rear ended and in our garage in Delaware, all smashed up. I remember it was the first car I ever practiced detailing on.
Unfortunately, it started to look bad. Years of sitting outside with no wax took its toll on the paint, but the interior was still pristine. 16 years of grime were in the engine bay, but it didn't leak a drop. It was my dad's daily driver, driven almost every damn day, taking rain, snow, salt, and still never rusting one bit. 188,691 miles later, its now gone.
The guy who bought it is good friends with my neighbor (my neighbor basically bought it for him), so I'll get to see it around. I may stop by when they change some fluids this weekend.
TLDR: I sold the car i've been with forever today.
CSB...I know. Just thought i'd share.
