I’m waiting for a divine intervention to make me decide...
If it makes financial sense to sell and you won't regret your decision to sell, then go for it.

My vote is to keep it. I'm paying $800 (car note, insurance, and garage)/month for a car that I can't even drive (and haven't driven in almost 2 years) because I love it so much lol.

For what it's worth, selling it now may be a bit harder than before. If selling privately, you may get more but will take more time. If selling to a dealership, they will prob. low ball you now that rates have risen and sales are slowing down (and the $25K they offered was probably before the forest rat running into you).
FL 4Motion, danegrey and MZ DAIZY like this.

I went to a dealer I have “NO” interest in buying from to see what I can get. They are aware of the damage. I’m waiting on an estimate on the damage. Ball park was $1500. I’ll pay that out of pocket if I can get $3,000 more out of her. Obviously.

What’s weird, is this is the first time I’m attached to a car I’m selling. Every other one I was happy to see go, so the decision is hard for me.

I have a deal in place on a Mazda CX-5 using MZ DAIZY as a down payment. Just can’t quite pull the trigger...
