You know the type — expensive, flashy, and somehow still ugly.
What’s that one car that screams “too much cash, not enough class” the moment you see it? 👀
Drop your answers below — let’s see which cars make the list 👇🔥
Has anyone else tried to sell their vehicle lately and faced this? It's a 2017 Hyundai, I didn't imagine it might get rough.
Forsyth County/Gainesville Georgia
The car has no body damage, interior is good, and has about 250,000 miles. Unfortunately, I think the head gasket is blown. It’s never ran hot, but there was sludge in the radiator when I had it flushed. It's a 2014 Kia Sedona. It absolutely will eventually run hot and needs the head gasket figured out so I'm not comfortable selling it to anyone who doesn’t plan on fixing it first. Does anybody know of a reputable "Junk Car Buyer"? Or possibly a mechanic who would be interested in the van?
Other than peeling paint on the hood and the gasket, the van is perfect.
Put me in touch if you have any ideas please!
Thanks!!
Hi if this isn't allowed I'll remove it, but I due to medical issues can't drive. I was seeing if anyone had any advice on where to start with selling it and what to keep an eye out for? Anything is appreciated :)

Selling a 2009 Honda Accord EX-L V6 Coupe with approximately 250,000 miles. It has an automatic transmission, clean title, sunroof, leather interior, three newer tires, new brakes, a new alternator, and a new starter. The engine ran before the wiring issue, and the transmission was working properly. Headlights are included and stored inside the car.
⚠️ Condition:
The engine wiring harness was removed after being damaged. The car is currently not running and needs wiring repairs before it can be driven. The interior is partially disassembled, and the front bumper and headlights are off the vehicle. The headlights are included.

Ideal for a mechanic, DIY enthusiast, project or restoration, or parts car.

My father in law, now age 90 gave up driving last year and gave his 2015 Accord to my wife. Before he did this however (reason he gave up driving finally) he was hit in rear quarter(his fault).. the passenger side seat and roof airbag deployed. He had the damage fixed to the car (new rear quarter panel) but he did nothing with the airbag situation.
So as it stands the passenger side has no operable seat airbag nor the roof airbag. The side of the seat is torn where the bag deployed as is the head linger (about 8" tear). The airbag light is on
Other than this the car is in 8/10 shape and drives/ shifts great. It has 73k on the clock. We'd like to sell it for cash as is as we are not using it much use since my wife retired.
The title is clear as he paid for all repairs in cash and nothing was reported to insurance. Any idea of value? Where's best place to sell. We fully intend to disclose all this to a buyer but have no idea where to sell. perhaps Carmax/Carvana?
Has anyone ever listed and successfully sold a car on Autotrader as a private seller? I listed my Jeep Wrangler but I feel like they make it too difficult for buyers to contact sellers and then there is a whole procedure that you must follow to actually sell the vehicle. Anyone ever had a positive experience using this?
I was gifted a really nice European sports car recently by a very dear family friend. The car is over 20 years old and spent the last year sitting in their garage. The car was very well cared for but barely driven. Once I got it and started to drive it regularly it started to have mechanical issues, mostly just a function of time. However European cars are very expensive to repair and I don’t have the money to keep up with the repairs. I don’t want to seem ungrateful as I am beyond grateful for such a thoughtful gift, but I am looking to possibly sell it and put the funds toward something a little more practical and manageable. NOTE——-
I am certain this was NOT a case of them unloading the car before they had to make expensive repairs. I also don’t want to tell them how much the repair estimates are and make them feel guilty. Their friendship is far more important than any car or money
Be wary of these two numbers and block them. They’re not registered on Autotrader and just go there to look for private car sellers to try and scam and waste their time.

My dad owns a car registered in California where his vacation home is. He doesn’t live there year round, and resides out of state when not there. He’s looking to sell that car and is asking if that requires his presence in CA or if it can be handed remotely/via distance (I and some of his friends live in CA so he’s asking if it’s possible for me or one of them to help with that process if possible but I want to make sure I wouldn’t accidentally technically be title jumping or something by doing the legwork).
I assume he’d just want it sold to one of the dealerships in his town that do cash offers for ease reasons. So is it feasible/legal for him to be sent the title, sign the relevant spots, then mail it back to CA and have someone actually take the car to the buyer, or would he specifically need to be present physically rather than someone else taking the car over and mailing him his check or whatever?
Edit: i see a lot of people saying not to because it’s unpractical needs work and unsafe is there any cars recommended that have pop up lights? I wanna flip them up at people and just to look at in general I’m young so I’m aware that I’m immature and want a “cool car” but i still can’t help it lol i want a cool car
Im 18 and I want to sell my Lexus 2009 es350 and buy a Miata 1990-1997 (because i want the popup headlights and a manual) my Lexus books low but listing of my exact car i see on Facebook are around 8k and a Miata everyone seems to say they got theirs for 3-5k i would have money left over for repairs and to pay off the new tires i got there’s 0 downsides besides it being an old car. My dad is against the idea and wants to wait until he can find a Miata at an auction (he works at a car dealership) but how rare are they to find? He said the same about a civic and it’s been months which he never got one. I would rather try to sell my car if i can’t i can’t i don’t see any downsides of me trying to he seems to think he has to spend any money at all he gets mad easily over dumb stuff so a mature talk is barely an option how can i convince him and am i maybe in the wrong?
I got a couple quotes from services that buy used cars.
It's a 2011 Lexus ES 350. It has 178k miles on it.
I listed the car as "fair" condition (as opposed to "good" or even "decent"). The quotes I got were around $2,500. But when I described the car, I wasn't able to include that it has an exhaust pipe leak (makes a loud sound but works fine), a loose door handle (the labor involved makes it too costly to fix) and a shot battery. I couldn't find a place to indicate that on the form. There are no other significant problems with the car.
Should I just donate it rather than having someone come out to look at the car, only to knock down the price to something not worth anyone's time?
I have a 96 cabrio that I haven't touch in almost 8 years....
I simply don't have the time, energy, and money to give it the attention it deserves. So, I'm wondering what would be a fair asking price for it?
It has less than 40k miles. Inside and outside cosmetics issues. Ran great when I used it as a daily driver, but it couldn't handle wisconsin winters very well. Also not stored properly.
I can provide pictures if needed.
