I wish to regain citizenship...?

I was born in Germany to American Citizens, I have a german birth certificate, and I also have a certification of birth for the US. I know that my parents needed to had to gain citizenship for me prior to returning to the states. I am in my 30s now and have been wanting to regain my german citizenship for a long while now but I am not sure if I am able to. I would love to move to Europe and have all of my rights as a EU citizen.

Does anyone know if I am still able to regain my citizenship?

Your an American!!! Accept that fact with pride. I doubt you would be eligible for any rights or privileges in Germany. Germans are funny about warming up to Auslanders! You would have to contribute financially to the economy to reap any benefits (medical/retirement) unless you petitioned for asylum as a refugee.

i was born in israel and got german citizenship from my father (he was born in South Africa but his mother was from Germany and escaped before WW2) so i think they wont have a problem with giving citizenship to someone who was born there, well unless it was revoked or voluntarily given up.

You may have been born in Germany, but according to German law, you have no right to German citizenship if your parents were not German citizens and you were born before 02/02/90 (or if your parents were in Germany with the US military or as registered representatives of the US government). Even if you had been eligible, you would have aged-out by now and still be ineligible. Sorry.
