decisions...decisions...90 dx.
so...i've got an old accord...bought it a year and a half ago.
however about 4 months into my purchase, my neighbor ran into the front of it when it was parked insurance called it totalled. gave me $2500. so i bought a g2 teg.
but i have yet to sell this car. i fixed all the damage for $300. hood, headlights was all (insurance was crazy for totalling it). but the hood's white...so it's really ghetto now.
since then, it's been on the east coast, my sis said she'd sell it...but a year later...it's sitting in the same spot...after getting the cd player stolen out of it...with no for sale sign on it, becoming a pile of rust. i'm in colorado. how convenient.
condition of car now. ~160k, no reciever (cd player, radio), white hood, quarter-sized spots of rust around both wheel wells (growing each day), broken antenna (3/4 of the way up), and the door panel doesn't really match the rest of the car...it's a little off...lol. great looking interior...clean...nothing's broken.
options now...i need your help/opinions.
#1. get her to take some god damn action, and try to sell it as is for ~$1200
#2. get it driven back here, do the same, try to sell it. (maybe could get more $ here)
#3. get it driven back here. buy a cheap stereo, take it to maaco, get the rust taken care of, and get the whole car repainted for $400-$500, get a new antenna...and do a bunch of cleaning & little things to make it look good. (wax vacuum, everything that i'd do to sell a car). maybe i could get a little over $2500 for it then (that's what i paid for it).
what do you say? it sucks, cause i dont wanna deal with the hastle of tryin' to sell the flippin' thing. i sort of just want to get it sold, and get the cash...and not have to deal with it anymore. but another part of me says "hey, an easy $1000...go for it"
opinions? other options? anyone want this thing? lol.
sorry, just sorta gotta vent a little.
