Cash for Clunkers, should I wait for it?

[ministig]

Hi, guys.

I'm a uni student currently drive a pre95 accord. still drives well but start to falling apart. A/C has no fluids, needs 4 new tyres, a battery and two rear shocks (replaced front ones earlier this year cost me $800),sometimes trouble starting when left in the sun for a couple of hours (when its hot).

Im getting a euro for sure, despite TOYOTA 2.9% offer, lol.

since its eligible for Cash for Clunkers, was looking forward to sign the deal in Jan.

But now they postpone it, and looking to reduce the amount.

Hoping to get the euro ASAP.

what should i do with my old one to max my savings? sell it or scrap it? or should i wait for the government?

I'm a noob, just looking to get some advice.

cheers.

87 ca5 accord si

and good news, the muffler just fell off.

seriously need a cu2 now.

lol, sounds like you'd be better having it scrapped at this point/cash for clunkers.....though I'd actually be interested in your Brake master and Brake booster...if you wanted to part out

i can only decide when i got the new car, so let you know next week, if its not too late. do u own a ca5?

All good, let me know (though I live in QLD, so can't remove it myself mate)

I actually have a Civic, but the Accord stuff will fit.
