Do you miss what you traded in for the Evo?
I also traded in an A4 (2000) and I miss nothing other than automatic door locks. Other than that I love the EVO so much more. I also use to own a 3000GT VR4, and while I do miss that car kind of, I wouldn't trade my EVO for three VR4s. Now I wouldn't mind owning both though.
Yes, I do miss my modded Mini Cooper S, but don't get me wrong, I love my Evo to pieces. My best friend Carlos gave me a ride on his 05 MR and I was sold out for the Evo...I signed the papers the same day
I traded in a porsche boxster and I don't miss it at all. I did get more attention in the porsche tho. but I don't get bored driving the evo. i f I want something else to drive I just take my girls 06 sti out.
I really miss my old wrx, I can't put my finger on why. It wasn't the handling, the interior, the drivetrain. I think it's just that it didn't stand out as much as the Evo does.
I gave up my electric blue 00 civic si with 30,000 miles on it lowered with the stock wheels, stage 4 act 6 puck, jet tuned ecu, aem fuel rail, type r cams, retainers, valves, custom header back with a cherry bomb turbo 1 exhaust so all you heard was the roar of pure vtec. All that only got me 13.8secs 1/4 so the evo was just the sweeter deal...
EVO was teh sex

i MISS my mkII mr2 turbo like crazy sometimes....rwd + mid-engine + turbo.... when u stomp the gas u can feel the propelling wheels and the engine and the turbo right behind u pushing u forward....not to mention the very twitchy handing dynamics of the mr2...i loved that car, and will get one again when i can. it is much more fun to drive than the Evo for me, but then again the Evo is a much better performer and much much much more practical
1 thing i do NOT miss is driving the mr2 in the rain, that was just not fun

i just had a '97 Mits Mirage that I did up a little and participated in Show and SPL compititions. It was fun but time to move on. I do not miss it at all!! I almost dropped a Cyclone 4G63T in it to get the Evo power til the Evo came to us in '03.
I miss my 04 Sentra Spec-V a little, but I love my Evo way more! The spec-v with all the "r-tune" NISMO parts still only made just under 170fwhp -- but it did have a 6speed, LSD and rev'd pretty fast. Really fun to drive, good on gas!

I traded in my 1991 Sentra SE-R (165k miles) for the Evo. I didn't get much in the trade and in retrospect I should have held on to the car for running around town. The salesman that sold me the Evo bought the SE-R after driving it around for fun. He ran it up to over 200k miles before relocating to Texas.
I've actually looked into buying another (lower mileage) first gen SE-R. Great little car that still doesn't receive the respect it was due.
I miss it most while standing at the pump.

yeah, I traded in an '02 WRX. I miss it because it was the first car I really loved. Good times in that car. Especially since you don't really see many of the bug eyed ones, just makes it kinda special to me. In every way inferior to the evo though.
