Took me over a year to pull the trigger and buy one. I picked up my 00S with 75K miles in August of 08 for $15,300.
No regrets. The car has been amazing to drive and pretty bullet proof. I now have 121K miles and the car is tight, rattle free and doesn't leak a drop. What more could you ask for in a car?

Four years and 35k miles later, no regrets whatsoever.

Lots of stuff from high school. Two teachers in particular.
Knocking over dad's oxygen tank from his gas cutting rig and not telling him.
The Smart Car thread
The cat thread
Giant scratch in a rear rim from being in a hurry..
Not taking advise here and wasted cash on countless stuff, then had to buy what was suggested.
Passing on the opportunity to apprentice as a Saudi oil prince.
With the Box? Needs a bit more amp for the stereo!

Right now no
When fuel pump relay went and i Was stalling every couple miles in rush hour traffic until i got home and car sat in garage for days while I tried to figure it out
I started to regret
Then i figured it out, then no regrets. Sense of accomplishment
If i make it through to next oct and my expensive drivetrain warranty expires
I'll regret paying for that
A little regret when car sits in garage for a couple weeks
Drive it All regrets go away
Nice Christmas present today got to drive 2 1/2 hour
No regrets

My only regret is that I didn't buy the car earlier, despite having to drop $10,000 into an engine rebuild last year I still wouldn't trade it for the world.
