Default Feel any guilt when giving up your previous car?

As car enthusiasts, you know that some of us become fairly attached to our cars. Did any of you feel a bit saddened when you let your previous ride go for the S?

The reason I ask is that I'm meeting my buyer at 9am tomorrow and heading right to the Honda dealer. Now I'm getting cold feet, even though I know I'll love the S. Just hoping this is normal.

For reference, I'm giving up a 2003 Celica GT-S with "action package" (factory bodykit)

You'll like the s2k when you first get it. When you feel guilt about your previous car take the s2k out for a spin and you will about the choice you made

giving up the '88 Prelude 2.0 Si - went to a good cause
giving up the '04 Civic EX - owned it for 4 months, don't miss it for one minute

I think of my M3 often but I am glad I bought the S2K. Japanese reliability won me over.
