What cars did you pass on buying in the 60s/70s because they cost too much

In 1972 I was 18 years old and holding two jobs, so money was no problem. I went to a local Chrysler dealership (Raynal brothers on Chalmers and Harper in Detroit) I ordered a brand new 1972 CUDA 340 4bbl 4 speed Yellow with a black vinyl top and a black interior. The salesman told me about 4 weeks and I should have it. He was right, in 4 week I received a phone call from him and I was told my CUDA was in. I was very excited and shot down to the dealership to pick it up, but after looking around I could not find it. When the salesman came out from the office I asked him where the car was at and he told me it's right there in front of me. There was a blue one sitting there in front of me and when I told him I ordered a yellow one he said "look you have to take what you can get" I told him to cancel the order that I did not want a blue one and I went out and bought a brand new 1972 Monte Carlo. To this day I am still kicking myself in the *** for not taking that blue 340 4 speed CUDA.
