The deal is your car has to be more than 10 years old and you have to be trading it in for something 2006 or newer. You also have to have to be in a certain income level. If you trade it in for a hybrid you get $3.5k.

Custom made. The little 6 piece CD holder is a fischer box, they come in porsches and I think some VWs.

3k, towards a 2k6 or newer upgrade........ heck yeah. It's just a high trade in offer basically as an incentive to buy a newer emissions car with better gas mileage and the government picks up the tab.

.....and you don't have to deal with selling it and dealing with people.

Get'er done! Hate to hear it's gonna get crushed, but all things considered why would anyone NOT do this rather than dealing with the hassle of selling. Awesome program!!!

That is a good program. Too bad your sc looks so clean. You should be able to get at least an extra grand parting out

Seems like ur problems are just cosmetics and some minor TLC on the other things. There are people in here that buys F***ed up scs and they bring it to life. But then again some people are different. Your SC looks nice!

I'm thinking of the new accord or or a civic. The deal is the car has to cost under $25000 before tax. I'm just looking for an A-B car with good mpg. I'll wait for another day when I come back to Lexus.
