    I was out with my wife and another couple on Friday night when I get a text from Phosho saying he saw my R32 in the parking lot.

    I left dinner and spotted my old silver bugeye sitting mean and low. My heart sank, all the memories of building that car, caring for it and feeling proud of what I accomplished behind the wheel. Sure she wasn't perfect but she was mine and I built her, spent countless hours driving it really getting to know all of her flaws.

    I walked around the car and spotted all of the little things, like a perfect circle dent on the leading edge of the hood. That happened on I20 when a rock bounced up and hit the soft, light aluminum.

    I was so proud to show the old girl to my new friends. They had no clue why I was so excited (or why I was hugging the WRX!)

    Then it was back to my new car. Man, moving on is hard to do.

    Take good care of her Phosho, I know she’s in good hands

    I know how you feel. I have been through more than 10 cars in 8 years but the only car I have any attachment to is my old wrx. I'm pretty sure Jamey is selling her in the next few weeks, wish I had the means to pick it back up :(
