2000 Toyota Celica GT-S 107,000 miles. The car had so many rattles I lost count, there was a major eletrcial issue, it took premium gas, and lots of other things I can't think of nor want to. The car had pretty sick handling though (lowered, strut bar) which is the only thing I'll miss about it.

 

1st time I gave up this:


2nd time around I gave up this :

 

'06 HHR 2lt

 

A 1998 Audi A4 with 140,000 miles. It was the first car I bought for myself, though. I loved that car, but I love my SS more.

 

A 2000 Dakota quad cab 4X4 4.7 5-speed.I sure did miss it when we got snow last week.

Now you know why I didn't get sunburst orange in my SS! I grew a little tired of the color.

 

We had a 99 S10 ZR2 4x4 pick up. (check out my pictures to see the ZR2)

I miss the bed on it sometimes but the gas mileage is better by leaps and bounds. Slowly the wife is becoming quite a fan of the car naming it Herbie and all. The HHR is even quicker in acceleration than the 190 hp Vortec was so that's a win too.
It is just cute, cute and cute!

'98 gmc sierra 1500 4.3L. fun lil motor, terrible gasmileage in a full size truck. shoulda got a v8. i like the hhr much better. itd be fun to stick a 4.3 in an hhr tho.

 

i traded in my 1996 Volvo 850 Turbo Platinum Edition.. only 1000 made ..

 

I gave up a 98 Ram 4X4 V10 5speed, I had a bunch of traveling to do, and at the time Fuel was on the rise so...

 

That was pretty much the same with ours. It was great when things were all working and miserable when they weren't. Parts were a bear to get a hold of and they cost an arm and a leg since most them were specific to the Northstar and could only be obtained through GM. The final straw was when the half case seal went out. There are no rebuild kits available for the Northstar, that I know of.
