I'm done with my bonnie
I took it to the shop when it was overheating and now I have a cracked head and cylinder, plus water pump is out, lim gasket has failed, the total cost to fix it is 2900. That'* more then the car is worth. So some mechanic there wants to buy it for 700 dollars, I said sold. 160K is more problems then it'* worth. But I want to thank everyone for helping me on this forum. Unfortunately Bonnie has to go. I am getting a 2001 Acura 3.2 CL-*.

From a car buyer'* point of view $700 is a bit high. You have a dead car.
From a seller'* point of view, $700 is more than you had before and it'll be tough to sell with it being dead.
I recently bought a 2000 Buick Regal with 160K on it for $1400. Drove it before buying. Most things worked great and the car needed some minor things to be up to 100%. When I buy a dead car, $500 is pretty much my maximum unless the car has a lot of extras that increase the value greatly if parted out.
