Mark S asked:


I wrecked my 1991 Honda Accord today and I want to sell it for parts or sell each part individually. How much would my engine sell for? The car itself had 219000 miles on it and it would be pointless to invest money into fixing it. Also, what could I get for other parts. Its the front of the car that's damaged.

Im just not sure what to do…There is a car deal from ebay that just BLEW my mind!

I emailed him back and this is what he had to say

Hello there,
Thank your for your interest in my car.First of all I want to tell you that the car is still available and includes all the shipping costs and insurance, so you wont have to pay any extra charges. The car looks like new, it has never been scratched or wrecked. It will come with a clear title, bill of sale signed by me as well and all the papers (including the original manuals and keys) that you will need to register it under your name.
This was my brother car but he is not… anymore.I don't want to get rich by its selling, just want to give it to someone who will take good care.
It is already at the shipping company, crated and ready to go and in this case i can't close the deal in person.
The car will arrive to your door in 5-6 days tops. The final price is $5,870.
Because the car was listed also on eBay Motors,for payment, I´ll like to use an eBay Purchase Protection service,so we'll beboth protected.
Please go here and Buy It Now on eBay Motors: link blocked
No money first to me – i will receive money after you will receive the car.

Since this deal will be made using a escrow service to help us closing
this deal, I prefer honest buyers. Anyway,if you want more details

I'm a serious seller and a fair trader and I prefer to deal only
with a serious buyer. If you consider yourself one please e-mail me back so

I got his VIN# for carfax and everything, his account on ebay looks very genuine (has tons of good feedback from previous deals)

im just not sure weather its a scam or not…its just that the deal is soooo cheap for a such a nice car..

If you guys think its a scam…why is he even giving out his VIN# anyway? I emailed him for a cell# just to be safe…waiting for a replay now lol

I asked this question yesterday did get a few good responses but, a few responses that didn't quite fit due to apparently more information being needed. A few mentioned my sisters as first time drivers. They are not. They have been driving since they were 13 (farm equipement @ my Uncle's my dad's friend owns a track on which they have both driven a Hemi Roadrunner, a 1970 Chevy Nova, etc on countless occasions so they are not unfamiliar with muscle at all. They also have had their licenses since the day they turned 16. Another person stated that they thought my sisters were selfish to ask for these. I proposed this whole thing, not them, on the basis that they came up with the money recieved straight A's through Junior High high school they have. Also, they are far from selfish. They do all the yard work on 23 Acres because for the past 5 years, my father has not been able to because of a heart attack. They come clean my house take care of my dogs if I get stuck @ work or my fiance I go on vacation without even needing to be asked. They also volunteer @ local soup kitchens. You couldn't ask for better siblings they are the definition of unselfish. As far as insurance is concerned, that is covered for them for the first year by myself my father they will be listed as secondary drivers under me so the cost is not all that bad. Another person noted that whenever he was writing up auto loans he would purposefully deny teenagers even with co-signers that many others do too. I am not co-signing, the car will be in my name completely yes I know the risks of this but, if they can't pay, I have it. A few people mentioned that they should sell their trade just find a car for 12k but, the problem with that is, it wouldn't have the premium warranty I want for them (unless u were to pay over 2 grand more for the extended which still may not cover everything would not last as long as I want it to). Our family is very, very busy don't really have the time to take them somewhere should they have to wait for a car to be fixed. With the new cars I've selected, all the warranties state that if the car goes in for any repair, a rental is provided free of charge are full bumper-to-bumper warranties. So, with new information provided i would like some feedback to the question:

For my sisters' Senior year, I asked that they come up with 5k by the end of summer they came up with 8k for me to sign for a new car for them. Their trade is worth 4500 with all that as a down payment, these are the cars they have narrowed it down to: A 2010 VW Tiguan that will cost them like $303 a month but it's LOADED! Bike rack, heated seats steering wheel, u name it, plus their oil changes, inspection emissions would be free for the life of the car. A 2010 Mazda3 grand touring 5 door that will cost them like $226 a month I know that's not all-wheel or 4 wheel like I wanted them to have but my fiance has one that's a couple years older it goes great in snow so I guess I'm okay with that. There's a 2010 Dodge Nitro we looked at before that will be $286 a month (actually less cuz we didn't calculate their trade in when we looked). Another we looked at was a new Subaru WRX-STI that's all-wheel, loaded would be about $300/month. There was also a Mercedes 2009 M-Class we found that was a demo for a salesman only has 15k miles, it's all-wheel loaded, even heated seats steering wheel I can get 0% financing on it, the payments will be slightly higher ($363 a month) but I kinda saw their eyes light up when we looked at that. Plus with the payment split in half that being the only bill they would have other than car insurance. (Dad pays cell bill) They still want to look at a new Pathfinder cuz they love mine but I think I might get jealous if they had a newer one than me, lol. And of course, they both are REALLY trying to talk me into the Dodge Challenger SRT-8 that would cost $400/month that we test drove just for fun but, now they want it. I know they could afford to split the payment on it my father I are covering the first 12 months of insurance. All have full warranties until the loan would be paid off. I'm a lil worried about the Challenger cuz I don't want them to wreck in the snow. (We live in PA) What do you guys think? Also, today we looked at a new Cadillac SRX, A Nissan Rogue, a Jeep Compass. The SRX is $361 a month, the Rogue the compass are both about $289 a month.

Sheba asked:


2wks ago, my 19yr old daughter wrecked the car I bought 2mo ago. It’s repairable for a cost I’m not willing to pay money she does not have. So I decided to sell it – I bought it for 8G's – It will cost 5G's to fix it and I'm selling it for 1.5Gs…………Should I tell her I sold the car and share the money or keep it as a consolation.
