It is an old car from 2008, but it did not pass the smog test and
will cost about 1 ， 000 ㌦ to repair.

I am considering scrapping the car as I cannot sell it as is.

Please let me know what is the best way.

There was a post on the information board looking for about $2000.
If I deducted the cost of repairs, they would buy it.

The Red Cross, pediatric hospitals, and animal shelters also accept vehicle donations.
In most cases, there is no charge for towing and the donation is tax deductible.
If you search for Car Donation Charity, you will find a lot of information, so I hope you can use it in a meaningful way.

There is a government program that will pay $ up to 1200 for assistance with repair costs or $ 1000 － $ 1500 if you are scrapping your car as long as it does not pass Smog.

Thanks a lot for the information.

I put a trial upload to Craiglist and got a pile of "＄ 1250" inquiries.

＃ I guess the safest thing to do would be to get rid of your government-assisted scrapped car.
I will try to arrange it as soon as possible.

Thank you for all the others as well.

Arrangement of BAR program, report of results

https://www.bar.ca.gov/consumer/consumer_assistance_program/

Thank you for your advice.

Today, I completed the arrangement and $ got 1500.
It actually took me about a month to get it done, and the check screening was easy.
I had to be able to drive a car, but I was going home by bus and train.
I had not used public transportation for almost 20 years, so I was puzzled, but
I heard that buses and trains are all FREE since Covid19, so I came back from Norwalk.

The train lines have also advanced considerably and cover a wide area, so it is very convenient.

I thought I would not need a car anymore, but I found a used car of the same model
3 years newer than my car and I am satisfied with the comfort.

Thank you for your advice.

That's all for now, until my report: 、、、、 ＾ ＾

Invisible Man,

Thank you for your report. I'm glad you were able to dispose of it promptly.

I see that metro and buses are still free. I heard that they were free right after the pandemic, but I thought they went back to charge.

How could I have sold it for over $2500 if I paid $1000 for repairs ？.

I didn't know how much ？ I would end up paying to repair a used car, and
I had had bad experiences in the past, so
it was the perfect way to replace it.

And I was also thinking of hedging my bets in a private sale.

I am lucky to have got a good car ！.

I was fortunate to get a good car when I bought my 2008

I was also fortunate to get a good car when I bought my 2011

Cheap means they are also cheap.

The cheapest price is also the worst quality, so
even if you think you are getting a good deal, it will end up costing you more in the end.

Thanks for the info.
I read it with interest as mine is about to go. But I can still drive it.
It's a 2003 Toyota and I can drive it just fine.
I bought it used in about 2008 and it still has 150,000 miles on it, so I think it will go up to around 200,000 without any major problems.
Used cars will be ok, but if you buy a new （ Japanese car less than 5 years old and less than 50,000 ） miles, it will be ok.

I think EVs will be the main vehicle from now on.

If I buy the same car, I would prefer a car that is well equipped.

If you have a cell phone, it is better to buy a car that supports APPLE and GOOGLE play.
You can buy a car stereo that is compatible and have it installed, but
you might have to spend some extra money.

When I go to dealers now, they don't have a single new car on the lot due to the shortage of semiconductors, so the price of used cars is skyrocketing.
I test drove a Tesla thinking about buying one, but the ride is good, but there are some interior creaks and exterior gaps, and that display to control everything is not user-friendly because it eventually lags one step behind and loses time, so I passed. I can't wait for Toyota or Honda to come out with an EV.

Either way, when the time comes
gasoline engines will be banned.

If you go to the LA AUTO SHOW and see
what kind of cars the manufacturers are displaying, you will be ahead of the times.

But the problem with Toyota and Nissan EVs is that they are priced higher than Tesla.
I can easily buy Tesla's stock for the upside, but I'm not ready to sell yet.

You're a shareholder and you don't have to worry about that, you can buy it with dividends.
