I still have my 98 3.0CL but its just been sitting in my driveway for a few weeks and i need to get rid of it. The transmission needs to be rebuilt/replaced and im not about to pay for it since my car with a good tranny is only worth like $2k anyway...

any suggestions on what i can do with it, im looking into donating it but if i can get any cash at all for it, id rather do that

 

Donate it

 

someone will buy it

 

part it out?

 

Roll it out onto a downward sloping highway onramp and hold on tight.

 

i'll be lookin like your avatar

a kid i know wants me to take it out into a field and shoot it up with his ak47, i know that would be a hit on acurazine

 

>> my car with a good tranny is only worth like $2k anyway...

you been treating it like a POS ?

 

i should of added that it has 174k miles, its been beaten on over its time!

 

It's a first gen - I just looked mine up on KBB and they said I could only expect about $3600 on a good day.

 

What's the deal with tax breaks for car donations?

Maybe what you'd save on taxes would be comparable to what you could sell it for?

 

I think the general rule of thumb is that you basically get back a 1/3 of what the donatee value's the vehicle at. If he donates it for $2000, he will get around $666 back for it.
