Sounds like my story, so I know how you feel. I just sold my 1998 Outback to someone. It had 286,000 miles on it, and it was the car I learned to drive on, and my only vehicle for the first 8 years of my driving career. I loved that car dearly and did all the work on it myself as well (self-taught, starting with that car too.) I wish to death I didn't have to sell it, but it was too much of a mess to keep both vehicles. I'm in the same situation though. I will miss the utility, go-anywhere, room-for-things-ness of that car, and this car as an only vehicle doesn't really make THAT much sense...
...until I sit in the new BRZ. Then it makes TONS of sense. Still miss the wagon, though. When I posted on FB that I had sold it, all my friends freaked out asking how in the hell I could possible sell it, and that they thought I would be buried in it. Some of them said they actually felt emotionally attached to it even though it was MY car. Lots of stories in that wagon. Lots.
*cries*
