The one he really regretted, and again he was not much on German iron for some absurd reason I wish he had sought therapy for, was a Gullwing for around 6k, owned by a friend of his. I forget the exact year he punted on the deal.
I have bought and sold a lot of BMW's and Porsche's (all air cooled) but there is only two cars I regret either selling or buying back after a wreck: My 94 Defender 90 and my 1996 964 Targa.
